I was driving kept hearing a pinging sound and the car (2003 Suzuki Vitara) acted like it was going to stall. Kept driving then the car just died.
I need more info. Any trouble lights come on? Was it low on oil? Was the engine overheated? What was the coolant level? Were you towing at the time? Give me all you know and I can give you some ideas what it might be.
If by power light you mean the low voltage light then you could have a bad alternator. If your alternator isn't producing 12 to 14 volts then your engine ignition will be running of of your battery. It will do this untile the battery is drained then the engine will stall. this will happen faster with the lights on.

A power light blinked a couple times before car stoped. Engine didn't overheat Oil was fine. coolant level fine. The only thing I can think of is that I was very low on gas.
