Car stalls when I make a hard left? Here lately, my car has been stalling when I make a hard left. Whether it be a corner, or a sharp curve, it will randomly stall about half the time, then come back to life . Any idea what this could be?

sounds like a power steering pump...check your fluids to start. Something is putting a load on the motor when you turn the wheel and the only thing that does that is the pump.

This exact thing happened to me in a previous vehicle. Turned out to be the positive battery cable chafing against the metal battery tray and giving the direct short. Talk about a potential disaster
