I WOULD HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD (NOT A MAJOR ONE ' JUST A BUMP) AND THEN THE 'STABILITRAK ACTIVE' LIGHT WOULD BE ILLUMINATED IN THE DASH CONTINUOUSLY BLINKING LIKE IT'S STUCK. THEN: -THE TRUCK WOULD BECOME SLUGGISH DROPPING SPEED AND KNOCKING OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL -YOU CAN'T ACCELERATE -THE STEERING LOCKS UP SORT OF CAUSING IT TO FEEL LIKE THE TRUCK IS OUT OF CONTROL, THIS OCCURRING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS -THE AMOUNT OF POWER USED BY STABILITRAK WAS IMMENSE ' THE HEADLIGHTS BEGAN TO DIM THE LONGER IT WAS STUCK IN THIS STATE -IF YOU TRY BRAKING DURING THESE SPELLS IT HAS THE ANTI-LOCK ACTIVE SO YOU'RE JUST GRINDING AWAY LIKE YOU'RE IN A SKID BUT NOT STOPPING (AND THIS IS ON DRY PAVEMENT!) -- THIS OCCURRED ONE TIME WHILE I WAS ON AN EXIT RAMP AND AND I WAS UNABLE TO SLOW THANKFULLY I HAD TAKEN THE RAMP A LITTLE SLOWER TO BEGIN WITH OR I COULD HAVE BEEN IN MAJOR TROUBLE IN THE CURVE THEN SUDDENLY AS QUICK AS IT ALL STARTED IT RELEASES ' THE LIGHT SHUTS OFF AND ALL RETURNS TO NORMAL.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
SHORTLY AFTER CHRISTMAS 2015, WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET THE RED LIGHT ON THE GAS GUAGE CAME ON AND THE GAUGE SHOWED EMPTY. HAVING JUST FILLED THE TANK EARLIER THAT DAY I THOUGHT THE GAS HAD BEEN STOLEN. I PULLED INTO A STATION TO REFILL BUT IT WAS STILL FULL. FOR THE NEXT FIVE WEEKS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND THE GAUGE ONLY WORKED OCCASIONALLY. IT WASN'T A DANGEROUS SITUATION BUT AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF GUESSING HOW MUCH GAS WAS IN IT, I TOOK IT TO A REPAIRMAN WHO REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP MODULE ASSEMBLY FOR A MERE $767.04. THE ODOMETER IS ONLY AT 47,760.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
DRIVING AT NIGHT MY HEADLIGHTS QUIT WORKING. LIKE DOZENS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS TO NHSTA, I CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS BUT THIS VIN WAS NOT COVERED ON NHSTA ID 14V7550, GM RECALL 14291. THE REPAIR COST $80 BUT GM HAS REFUSED TO HONOR MY REQUEST FOR REIMBURSEMENT. WHEN IS NHSTA GOING TO DO IT'S JOB AND FORCE GM TO EXPAND THE NUMBER OF VINS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. I AM SURE THERE ARE PROABALY HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF OTHER OWNERS LIKE ME. THE LOSS OF HEADLIGHTS AT NIGHT IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND SHOULD RECEIVE MUICH QUICKER ACTION FROM THE NHSTA ON THE VINS TO BE INCLUDED.
