"2004 Sable stalls when steering to the left." Sign In

I have a 2004 Mercury Sable. It has 118,000 miles. The problem is i towed the car to a ford dealership 2 days ago to fix my car at first because it wouldn't turn on. So the mechanic put a new starter. I thought that it was good to go after they put the new starter. When I pick up my car the car was driving great. Then i parked it and went to a friends house. Later that afternoon i left my friends house to go to my apartment. Next thing you know i was driving and all of the sudden my car stall. So i turn on the car and made it home. After i got home i wanted to straight it out the wheels while my car was on. I turn the steering wheel to the left, next thing you know my car stall. Any help whats wrong with my car before i tow my car bak to the ford mechanics this monday, will be more appriciated.

Why would you tow it. Is it just stalling at idle and starting right back up or is something else going on?

Have it towed in then. it's not something you will be able to resolve yourself.

I'd really like to see what the cause of that is. The only thing that I could think of is that some electrical harness is rubbing/chaffed on a steering component.
