Engine shut off again. 2014 2ls
Once again my engine just shut off. Going around a 90 deg turn at about 30 mph. I had a half tank of gas. Its not like i'm doing doughnuts or something.. what gives?
I like to drive the shit out of my car but this issue is making me a bit skeptical about its reliability. Has anyone else ever experienced this? |

I am in a 2013 2LS and have not experienced that problem to date.
Does it make any difference if the turn is left or right? Since the gas tank goes over the hump for the drive shaft there are really two pumps in the tank with the primary pump to supply fuel on the passenger side and then a high pressure pump on the engine feeding the fuel rail. It might be an interesting experiment to find an empty parking lot and try to reproduce driving in a circle to the right and to the left with a scan tool attached recording live data. Does the CEL come on after the stall? |

The second time it happened the turn was definitely a right turn. The first time I feel like I was coming out left of some S turns, but it may have died on the right of that turn, then I came out left.
CEL? |

Sorry, CEL is an acronym for Check Engine Light.
Do you happen to have an oil pressure gauge? There are some great curvy roads up in the hills there in Southern California, a problem with the car stalling like this sure makes a joy ride a bit scary. If you are able to afford it the 4 gauge pack kit is an easy upgrade - http://www.gen5diy.com/Chevrolet/Cam...4-Pack-Gauges/ It was my first modification and worth every penny. |

I had mine shut off once when backing out into a road from a driveway. Pulled it out of reverse and as soon as I put it in drive it shut down. Very strange. Started right up, but thankfully nobody was coming down the road.

This just happened to mine. Making a 3pt turn went to put in reverse and it died. Wouldn't start in reverse, put it in neutral and started up.
My dad said it could be bad gas. I don't know. I make that 3pt turn multiple times a week. First time in 40k miles that it's stalled.

Condition Some customers may comment on an intermittent stall after making a left or right turn. No driveability concerns were noticed before or after the stall occurred and the vehicle will immediately restart with no issues. Technicians will find no DTCs set (current or in history) related to this concern.

So if ive had my camaro serviced would this correction have been made? It shut off on me about 3 weeks ago, same right turn not pushing vehicle too hard, plenty of gas and oil. @thiggin2

It would have been installed only if you had a service that would have required the ECM software to be updated.
