Yes, the engine may stall due to problems with the automatic transmission for the following reasons:
Locking the torque converter:
*A worn or faulty torque converter can cause a lockup, which will interrupt the transfer of power from the engine to the transmission.
* This may cause the engine to stall, especially at low speeds or when driving uphill.
Clutch slippage:
* Wear or damage to automatic transmission clutches can cause slipping, which reduces power transfer from the engine to the transmission.
* This may cause the engine speed to drop and eventually cause it to stall.
Difficulty shifting gears:
* Problems with the automatic transmission’s hydraulic or electronic system may cause difficulty shifting gears.
* This may result in a sudden change in engine speed, which may cause the engine to stall.
Solenoid malfunction:
* Automatic transmission solenoids are responsible for controlling the flow of transmission fluid.
* Faulty solenoids can cause the transmission to shift incorrectly or lock up, which can cause the engine to stall.
Transmission fluid leak:
* Low transmission fluid levels can lead to overheating and damage to the automatic transmission.
* This may affect power transmission and cause the engine to stall.
If you are experiencing engine stalling and suspect it is related to the automatic transmission, it is important to take it to a qualified mechanic for diagnosis and repair.
