While driving my 2016 traverse on the highway, the engine lost power and i received the stabilitrak warning, along with the abs & check engine warning lights. I was on the interstate travelling across country when the car began to stutter, shake and with immediate loss of power, i struggled to steer of the main lanes and narrowly escaping a life-threatening crash.
