One theory might be they didn't find anything because the computer died all of a sudden, without remembering what happened, so to speak.

Stalling is a very worrying concern. For a diesel engine to stall there should be:

Interruption to air supply (check air intake for foreign bodies,leaves etc)

Interruption to fuel supply (water, air)

Valve mistiming (belt, camsensor)

PCM faulty intermittent (? replace)

Wiring harness short (how to test?)

Voltage too low (checkcharging/battery)

egr fault intermittent (how to test?)

Ideally Ford could provide a data logger to catch the next event, in reality I suspect we are not so technologically advanced as they would like us to think.
