Shortly after taking delivery of vehicle which had 60 miles on it,I noticed when accelerating from a stop or accelerating when turning the car lost power.I would press the gas and it wouldn't go.took to paul batt buick & skill buick many,many times,never found problem.at 30k miles,buick said I should change fluid & check the pan fluid,which showed nothing.problem still occurs.this could be a hazard if vehicle behind me thinks I'm moving and car slows to a near stop w/o brake lights going on.
