2004 Suburban lt with 4 wheel drive. Occaisional loss of power when turning and accelerating into traffic. Usually lasts about two seconds before power returns. This is extremely dangerous when pulling into heavy traffic. Chevrolet has replaced the fuel pump, a timing device in the transmission and an air sensor over the course of six trips to the shop. I was told yesterday that this problem is known to GM engineers as the four wheel automatically sensing a need to shift, and that there was no known fix. I have and active complaint with GM, case number 1-269747819 since 10/21/2004.
