on an uphill angle or turnin angle?

And by shut off I assume you mean just like you turned the key off. Sounds like there might be a short somewhere, possibly in the column that allows the wires to cross and shut off the ignition, but could be other things as well.

does it lose power or just engine shut off? if just engine maybe ignition switch is the culprit. see if turning the wheel while siting still makes it happen

This is strange, what do you do to get everything to turn back on? Just put it back in park?

while sitting hit the steering column and see if it happens. I wonder if the ignition switch isn't going bad
