SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
I WAS DRIVING MY CAR TO MY HOUSE AN MY CAR STARTED ACTING FUNNY. WHILE DRIVING RANDOMLY 2 LIGHTS CAME ON SAYING SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST AND SERVICE STABILI TRACK. IT BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO STEER, THE AUTOMATIC BRAKES STOPPED WORKING AND IT CUT OFF ON THE HIGHWAY. I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND GOT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN I CUT IT BACK ON IT HAD THE FOLLOWING WARNING LIGHTS; SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST, SERVICE STABILI TRACK. I ALMOST DIED AND MY GIRL HAD TO PAY FOR A TOW TRUCK FOR ME TO GET HOME AND I WAS RIGHT UP THE STREET. I FEEL LIKE IT DANGEROUS AND WHEN I TOLD GMC THEY SAID ITS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. IT IS SEVERAL RECALLS WITH VEHICLES JUST LIKE MINE THAT ARE THE SAME YEAR WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS BUT THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME. MY CAR IS NOT DRIVABLE AND I CAN NOT AFFORD TO GET ALL THE THINGS FIXED THAT WERE RECALLS. I AM IMMOBILE AND IT IS CAUSING HARM TO ME FINANCIALLY. I TRUSTED GMC AND I FEEL LIKE THEY SHOULD DO RIGHT BY CONSUMERS.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
CONSTANTLY BEEN HAVING ENGINE PROBLEMS. ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON AND OFF. I WAS DRIVING IT DOWN A HIGHWAY, COMING TO A STOP DUE TO A RED LIGHT WHEN THE WHOLE FRONT OF MY CAR BEGIN TO SPUTTER AND GAVE OUT. IT READ "STABILTRAK" BUT WHEN TAKEN TO THE SHOP IT ONLY READ A CODE FOR THE CARBON FILTER. WHICH, WAS CHANGED AND DID FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR THE TIME BEING. HOWEVER, ITS DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN.. WHICH IS VERY DISSAPOINTING BECAUSE ITS A VERY WELL KEPT UP WITH CAR, NEVER GOES WITHOUT ITS NECESSITIES.. AND AT THIS POINT I'M THINKING IT COULD BE MY BRAKING SYSTEM DUE TO THIS PROBLEM WEAKENING MY BRAKES BUT I DON'T SEE WHY BECAUSE THOSE WERE CHANGED ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO. MAYBE, EVEN AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH MY TRACTION CONTROL.
