I have a 2011 Ram 1500 5.7, that dies accasonally when I'm braking or when making corners when going slow. Please help me.

 

Start with cleaning the throttle body.

 

Not sure if this is your issue, but I had same kind of problem with my 2013 Dodge Hemi, Big Horn. Occasionally when I would make a turn it would die a bit, then it would be okay. It was scary though.

Then one day my power steering mechanism went completely out.

Thankfully I was in a parking lot. I thought it might have been from my truck sitting in an enclosed area with chlorine gas.

It was a very expensive repair. 3k. I have not had it happen since, but I have not driven too much lately.

Maybe power steering mechanism checked?

 

Is your battery more than 3 years old? If so, you might consider replacing the battery before spending too much time looking for another issue. At that age, buying a new battery isn't quite a waste of money, and it's possible that the capacity is low enough that the brake lights are causing the system voltage to drop to a level where the PCM is unable to perform to spec. This sounds far fetched, but I actually ran into a similar stalling scenario on my ex-wife's Lincoln LS. In that case though, it would typically only stall on the first stop after a cold start. The engine would start fine, she'd back down our rather long driveway, and when she'd apply the brakes to shift from Reverse to Drive, the car would stall. I spent a lot of time trying to figure that one out until one cold day when the car seemed to crank over slower than usual so I replaced the battery. The stalling issue never occurred again once the new battery was installed.

Did the check engine light come on? Or any other lamps on, a clock spring will give idling problems too. Thats because the clock spring share the same ground as the TPS. And do you have an inline fuel filter. I've had a fuel filter that gave me fits.
