So I woke up and drove my truck to local dunkin donuts, located about 2.5 miles from my house. Little bit hot in the morning so AC was on. (just trying to include all the details just in case). Ordered my coffee and started driving toward the pay window. Have to make a sharp 90 degree turn and BOOM engine stalls , while taking the turn.

Started back up after the stall without issue?
No issue at all. Funny thing is I didn't even notice realized it was dead after a message popped on the dashboard saying to switch to park to start the engine.

So it's nothing I should be concerned about? Just never happened to me with the previous trucks.

I have 9000 miles on my 2020 and it has happened once in Moab. On my jeeps it happened a few times. kind of a perfect storm type thing. I guess unless it starts happening more frequently I would not worry about it. Try and duplicate and I bet you won't be able to at least very often.

I actually make same move everyday at work when I get out of the parking lot. Have to make sharp 90 degree turn but the only difference is while in the work parking lot I apply constant pressure on the gas . When this happend to me at the DD I took my foot of the gas so I could go slowly around the corner since there is a wall on the outside
