    Driving to work and all of a sudden the light panel tells me engine power reduced traction control off and service traction. I didn't have the traction on. Turned around went home. Car sounds horrible. Turned it off let it sit. Lights gone but scared to drive it. Will have it looked at but doesn't sound good. Single mom and live paycheck to paycheck who works everyday. What am i going to do.

    Car stalls while idling. The rpm's and the battery gauge go up and down while driving on city streets and highway. It has also been warm and cold weather. The car will reduce speed on it's own while this is happening. The vehicle drives rough and the engine sounds harsh. Originally engine light codes of p0174 and p0171 came on and dealership cleaned air flow. Now no codes and dealer isn't able to always recreate. I…

    I was idling at a stop light when my check engine light came on. I got an error message for loss of traction control and stabilitrack. My engine then completely lost power. I turned off the engine and restarted. My car got me through the intersection when it immediately happened again. This was a recall in the 2010 model- how is it still happening in models three years later?

    Car turned itself off while driving 55 mph on highway with my children in the car. Traverse randomly switches between cd and radio by itself. Traction control warning sounds randomly. Sometimes when key is turned off all goes black on dash without opening the door. There is no pattern to any of this. Always totally random. I have started pressing record on my phone before every time i start my car for the…
