    While driving the reduce engine speed, traction control, stabili-trac, and the check engine light flashes. The engine speed was reduced to a crawl. This has happened three times now and the speed doesn't seem to make a difference 30mph - 65mph. While we have been able to turn the car off and get it to drive home after 5 mins, it is dangerous because it happens while driving at higher speeds in the middle of traffic.

    The check engine light keeps coming on, but no problem can be found by the dealership. The transmission keeps "jerking" or it even feels like it is falling out. I've read that it can take a while for the vehicle to "learn" how you drive, but this doesn't feel right. Almost too scared to drive. I was stopped at a stop light and my vehicle stalled (i didn't realize this until i tried to go at a green light) and…

    Engine power reduced, stability track loss lights came on and my vehicles engine power came to a stop with my children in the car with my wife on the hwy. Could not move the vehicle. Dealership can not figure out the issue, only found multiple codes from the past and still could not solve the issue. Gm needs to stand by their product and replace these vehicles asap or fix this issue. Lawsuits will be filed.
