Please Help-Engine stalls randomly

So I own a 2002 tl-s and ive been having an isuue thats been getting worse and worse. The engine will stall randomly Its stalled when in park and on the highway doing 70+. the engine goes out as does the power steering. But all the accessories stay on. Ive replaced the ignition switch and i was sure thatd solve it but i stalled out on the way to work again today. Another possibility is the fuel pump/main relay. But it seems like most people who have had that issue just cant start their car. Mine always starts but dies while driving. Then if i try to start it back up the engine will crank but not start. I let it sit for 10 minutes and it starts back up again. Any help would be much appreciated!

Update:replaced the fuel pump relay. The old one definitely looked a little brown in some spots and one of the solder joints definitely looked suspicious/corroded. Hopefully it worked
