Default 2007 Caravan stalls in turns/slow speeds

I recently bought a 2007 Dodge Caravan with 67k miles. When turning slowly (in parking lots and at lights and stop signs) it acts like it is running out of gas and stalls. I am able to restart it immediately. Also, I have noticed that it only seems to happen when we are slightly low on gas - just a hair under 1/4 tank.

The dealership has already cleaned the throttle body and reset the long term adaptive memory. It is no longer under warranty. I really can't afford to let them keep it for a week and try fix after fix at my expense, but I can't afford to drive a vehicle that could cause a wreck either.

Any thoughts on what this could be?

Welcome to DF
Maybe the gauge is out of calibration. or keep more than a 1/4 tank of gas in the tank.
