My AI controlled car "stalls" after making a turn based on a collider

Hello,

I’m having some trouble with my WheelColliders. I have four on a vehicle that I want to turn right when it enters an area (or crosses a threshold).

The Car has the following move() method:

void Move()
{
	RRWheel.motorTorque = 5;
	RLWheel.motorTorque = 5;
	Debug.Log(RRWheel.motorTorque);
	Debug.Log(RLWheel.motorTorque);
	 if (collided)
	 {
		if (collided.gameObject.tag == "TriggerWall")
		{
			FRWheel.steerAngle = 45;
			FLWheel.steerAngle = 45;
			RRWheel.motorTorque = 10;
			RLWheel.motorTorque = 10;
			collided = null;
		}
	 }
}

The debug log shows that there is torque being applied the whole time, even after it stops moving.

I am calling Move() from the FixedUpdate() method.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks,

Fred

Ah! Looks like I figured it out:

I think I was turning the wheel too fast. A lower angle appears to totally solve the problem.
