Consumer Description

IT STALLS WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A TURN. MOSTLY ON RIGHT TURNS AS YOU ACCELERATE OUT OF THE TURN THE VEHICLE DIES. IT STARTS RIGHT BACK UP, BUT IT DOES THIS INTERMITTENTLY ABOUT ONCE A WEEK. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS A TOTAL OF 5 TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. NEITHER ONE CAN DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IT HAPPENED AGAIN THIS WEEKEND. I AM AFRAID THAT MY HUSBAND OR ANOTHER MEMBER OF MY FAMILY IS GOING TO GET HURT IN THIS TRUCK. I AM TRYING TO DEAL WITH GM BUT THEY ARE GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND. THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING IF THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM.
