 Traveling at 30-35mph i braked and turned quickly to make a left turn across traffic into a parking lot. the engine stalled causing my steering to seize. i had no control of the vehicle except to mash on the brakes which lost power. i was almost hit by cross traffic. i coasted to a stop, hitting a curb and nearly hitting several parked vehicles.
