C270 - Car dies while braking on low speeds & turning left???
This might sound weird 
but two times now in the last few months my c270 2003 w203 just dies during driving.
I don't know if it's a conscience that both times it has happen when I've been braking at slow speed (30km/h) and turning left. At this point the car just turns off (shows almost all lights on panel on ie parking brake being on etc) and just glides to a halt and I cant move the steering wheel either. I can press the gas but get no power and I can stop the car by braking. The car doesnt seem to lose electricity as the radio still keeps on working. There are no error codes either. Putting the car in park and restarting it and all works good again.
What could be causing this? Water getting into some electronics? Short cut? Some indicator broken?
I'm just really concerned if this happens at a higher speed or worse spot. So far i've been lucky where it's happen. I've talked to MB "experts" and they have no clue what it could be. It shows no error codes
