car shuts off when steering wheel is all the way to the left/right

[Deadly BlaZe]

my car has this problem of stalling when ever the steering wheel is turned completely to the left or to the right. why??

Usually with low idle and the drag put on the engine with the wheel turned to lock can cause it to stall. Nothing really unusual.

well my car idle's at like 1k, i dont think thats too low. but anyway, is there a way to fix it? its pretty embarrasing pulling out of a car meet and everyone sees ur car stall.

Its possible that your power steering pump might be going out. Any strange noises or tight steering lately? Check your fluid level and make sure the single wire is hooked to thr front of the pump. Beyond that, the only thing I could suggest is replacing the pump. Maybe someone else will chime in with some person experiences of this matter.
