I've heard of this before. Could be the serpentine belt getting wet and slipping.
Is the lower splash in place?
Is the tensioner providing enough belt tension?

========================When I take my 2005 Deville through a decent rain puddle, usually at slow speed and during the first few miles of a trip, I lose my power steering for a few seconds.
Since it's been at slow speeds safety hasn't been a major concern. Still it's disconcerting and the thought that it might get worse worries me.
What do I have? A loose belt? Problem with power steering pump? We only drive the car a few months a year in Florida and I'm Maine at the moment but my wife and the car are on the roads in Florida. What have I got??
Thanks,
Rob
