Default Toyota Camry 1999 - Stop and started back again next day

Weather Condition: Cool - Chicago

Last night my car stop and then I have to call towing truck to pick my car up. Cost $150

But today morning it work fine.

Does any one know what is the problem with my car ?

I’m worried to take the car anywhere because if it stops again I have to call the towing truck.

Is this a battery problem?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah man I've had that happen to me atleast three times in the past year. Never had a problem before, I've pulled up to a redlight at an intersection in town then light turns green I go through the intersection then everything just cuts off at once. I was lucky enough that it stoped right beside a city high school parking lot so i had somewhere to pull off at. Personally I don't have a whole lot of engine knowledge, but one of my buddys does and he couldn't find out what was wrong. Usually mine cuts off if I accelerate to fast, I've been told it could be just bad gas (which I don't see how considering it happened three times in one year, one time is understandable), battery,or a bad ECU. In my case though I didn't call a tow truck I tried to start it wouldn't give, thenwaited for about 5-10 minutes and just let it set, then I was able to start it up like nothing every happened.
