My Caddy Stalls at the strangest times. I can be going down the street and it will just stall. It also stalls when I turn at times. Also I took a hard turn one day and now it seem like im not gettin any power when I take off. It does go but it takes a while to pick up speed.

Yours is either an ignition problem or fuel problem. (This can include sensors)

Begin by checking plugs, wires and coils. Then check your fuel pressure, filter and pressure regulator for leaks and proper operation.

I have had this issue periodically for 12 years and each time it is fixed by cleaning the side mount battery cables and all is well for another 12k or 12 months. Used to stall for no reason, wiggle the cables and it would restart. Clean the cables and it is cured for a long while.
