Could be motor overheating and shutting off. Need to check if drum turns freely. If it does check vent hose making sure it isn't plugged causing dryer to overheat. If motor is bad it will get worse and just not start
If you dryer stops then starts again then stops you may have a broken blower fan belt. Check if air is exiting the exhaust vent, if not you probably need a new BLOWER FAN belt. The dryer is not pulling in cool air+blowing out hot air, it overheats, an electronic protection circuit called a "thermsistor" opens to allow the dryer to cool down and prevent fire. Once the dryer is cool the circuit closes and the dryer turns on again(drum start spinning, but no air exiting).

Sounds like it probably just needs a new belt.
Good Morning friend, thank you for your post!
From my understanding your Frigidaire dryer, LEQ1442ES1, will run and then shut down after three or four minutes. I would recommend a reset on your dryer which you can do by unplugging your power cord for roughly ten minutes.
If that does not correct the issue it sounds like a potential problem with your control panel or a sensor. I would suggest having a professional come out and repair your appliance to avoid any unnecessary part purchases. -Matt
