Fairlane regularly stalls

My 2005 Ford Fairlane regularly stalls and surges like it is going to stall. When it does stall, I turn it off, restart it, and all is normal again. The situation is worse when the air-conditioning is on. I will take it to the Ford dealer, but what could I be looking at?

It could be anything from a faulty computer to a sensor malfunction or even a dodgy wiring connector. It's best to get it checked by a dealer as you say you will do.
