I'll be going to make a turn and slow down and it feels like it is going to go out and stop on me?
Do air filters and gasoline filters possibly cause this problem? Thanx. Or automatic transmission problems.

Most likely, the idle air control valve is bad or there is an engine vacuum leak. I will assume the air filter is clean and not plugged. Based on that, both items I listed are covered fully under the manufacturer's emissions warranty and should be resolved by a dealer.
