Well when your engine dies, you obviously lose power steering and brakes. What does your voltage meter read with the engine both on and off? It could be a dead or low battery resulting from a bad alternator. Ive had the same thing happen to me before (in a Lexus of all cars).

As VEE EIGHT notes, when the engine's not turning, you lose power assist on the brakes and steering. However, they don't lock up. They just require much more manual force input to use. Don't just give up, throw your hands in the air and wait for a collision: Keep braking and steering!
Stalling and idle instability down near idle can be caused by many things. IMO, it's probably not related to the battery or charging system. A vacuum leak is a typical culprit. A bad PCV valve or a bad EGR valve can mimic a vacuum leak if either stays "open" as the engine idles down. A bad IAC (idle air control) valve can cause idle problems. What mods are on the car and does it have an aftermarket tune in the PCM?
