Default Motor Stalling

Hey everyone! Thanks in advanced for the support, this has always been a great community. I've read through the forum, but decided today to join and start posting!

I drive a 2007 base model Automatic, with 87k miles, like 100 miles on the motor.

Anyway, I recently had to replace my motor, due to problems I'll put in another post in order to save time. Before I brought the car back to have the motor replaced, I noticed that the car would bog down, and occasionally stall when turning the wheel at low speeds. This is actually what led me to bring the car back to the dealership in the first place.

So the motor was replaced about a week ago and everything has been working fine, except I'm still occasionally having the bogging problem at low speeds when turning, and this morning, the car stalled under those conditions. I'm not totally sure what is going on, but I have my suspicions it's not related to the motor at all, considering the problem has persisted pre and post swap.

Anything at all would be a huge help. Thanks!

Could it be an exhaust problem or maybe an electrical problem?

Default I suppose that could be the case.

I understand how there could be an electrical issue, but I'm not sure about exhaust. Could you explain what that might entail?

Could be the converter is plugged up. Had a problem with a VW a number of years ago at about the same miles.
