I gave Safelite technician the keys to my 2015 CRV. I requested specifically not to replace my windshield wipers as my right wiper did not work.
After installation he handed me the keys, and I noticed that the headlights seemed dim and wondered why he had left them on, but didn’t say anything.

1 A Cracked Air Intake Hose (My main suspect): This is super common on these Hondas. The big rubber hose between your air box and the engine gets brittle and cracks inside the folds. When you turn left, the engine shifts on its mounts, pulling that crack wide open and letting in a bunch of extra air. It totally blindsides the computer and kills your throttle response, but closes right back up when you straighten out before a code can even pop up. Pop the hood and physically flex that rubber hose to see if it's torn inside the pleats. 2 A Loose Wire or Ground: There could be a wiring harness or a ground wire near the steering column or engine bay that lost its mounting clip. When you swing left, the wires might be swinging just enough to momentarily tug a connection loose or short out the throttle signal. 3 Fuel Sloshing: Does this only happen when you're low on gas? If you're under a quarter tank, a sharp left turn could be sloshing all the fuel away from the pump for a split second, causing it to suck air and lose fuel pressure. If it happens on a full tank, it's definitely not this. Check that rubber intake hose first!
