Reported at 18,351 miles, December 2015 Injury

Purchased vehicle in march 2020, have had 4 instances of making a left hand turn and vehicle shuts off. Have read that steering assist recall was done, but from what I've read this is exactly what it is doing, low speed and making a turn. Any suggestions or have others experienced same? Date is last time but has happened about 4x s now since last summer.
