The vehicle drives fine when going straight or doing right turns. It'll hesitate when turning left, and it will shut down when I take a quick sharp left. I can slow down to about 10-15 MPH and take a wide turn and it'll just hesitate but not shut down. I changed the Fuel filter recently and did not fix the problem.

Check the wiring going to the engine. Also check the ground straps. It sounds like something is shifting when you turn left and cutting power to the engine. Also check the engine mounts. A bad one could allow the engine to shift farther as well, that puts stress on the wiring harness and could be causing the problem.
