Trouble

I have a 2005 Corolla. Yesterday, as I was driving it died 2 times when I went to stop or turn. Before the second time it started jerking and cutting out. The oil light came on, but there is oil is at the full level. What can be wrong?

The oil light will come on when the engine stalls or the idle drops to a very low speed, it will not be an oil problem, get a scan done to check for any unresolved fault codes and have the idle control checked for operation, start here.

Could this have something to do with the recall on this car?

If you have any outstanding recalls get them attended to first.
