Need help with engine sputter/stall on left hand turn
I have a 2012 ss L99 with about 3,500 miles. It just started sputtering and even stalling on left turns at medium speed. It has happened four times - only on left hand turns going at medium speeds. All other times it seems fine. It is severe enough to cause the service stabilitrak light to come on but not the engine light. The gas tank is full and now 3/4. The dealer did not fix it properly the first time (said crank sensor connector was loose). This must have been a result of the severe sputter and not the original problem. Any ideas?

Or just for shits and giggles, try taking it to another dealer if you think this one is incompetent...

Tricia, thanks for your interest. I dropped it off at the dealer on Saturday. The Service Manager drove it on Monday and noticed the same thing, but it was rainy/wet so could not drive it much. I did not hear anything back yesterday so I guess they are still looking into it or working on it.

I picked up my Camaro from the dealer last night. They said that they talked to GM tech support and it was a bad crank sensor; which this time they replaced. This was the sensor that they reconnected on the first visit. I am hopeful that the problem is now fixed (I have been without my Camaro for 10 days).

Where is the crank sensor located? I have a sputtering at mid speed when turning as well...
