Engine cutting out
I'm having another weird issue. When I turn sharply to the left or right, the engine is cutting out. Even when the car straightens, it still cuts out and sputters. Traction contol light is not coming on so it doesn't appear that's the issue. When I'm at speed and go WOT, it is fine. Just seems to happen at slow speeds when turning. No check engine or warning lights illuminated. Anyone else experience this?

Could be bad CPS, or air leak from the breather hoses, somewhere around the MAF..!
did you try to diagnose the car first.?, codes may helps to narrow the issue..!

When my CPS went bad, it went bad in the summer. It seemed that the car had to cool down before starting. It would crank but not turn over.
I did get codes so check your codes too.

Turns out it was a bulb socket out of alignment. It was causing the brake lights to be stuck on. Adjusted the bulb, fixed the cutout and also fixed my cruise control.
