ON 1/29/16 MY CAR DIED AND TOWED TO DEALER WHERE I WAS TOLD I NEED A TRANSMISSION. THE CAR ONLY HAD 69000 6MONTHS AGO DASH BOARD LIGHTS LIT TRACTION CONTROL, REDUCED ENGINE POWER SERVICE STABILITRACK ABS.WHEN I WOULD STEP ON THE ACCELARETOR PEDAL IT WOULD MAKE A WINDING NOISE GO TO THE FLOOR AND POP BACK UP AGAIN. AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY ALL OF A SUDDEN I HAD NO ACCELERATION CAR HAD DIED. L PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD A FEW MINUTES LATER STARTED UP AGAIN THIS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES I TOLD MY SON HE COULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE I FELT IT WAS UNSAFE. I CALLED THE GM THEY GAVE ME A COUPON TO HAVE THE A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK ON IT. IN SEPT I WENT TO THE DEALER AND HE SCANNED MY CAR FOR CODES I WAS TOLD I NEEDED A RIGHT FRONT HUB PART NUMBER 13582664, A RIGHT WHEEL SPEED SENSOR HARNESS, 10340314, ACCELERATOR PEDAL, 84018392, AND A VENT VALVE 2085252. I CAN'T BELIEVE A CAR DEALERS WOULD LET A PERSON LEAVE NOT INFORMING THE CUSTOMER WHAT A SAFETY ISSUE THIS IS. I DROVE THE CAR FOR A DAY BECAUSE I COULDN'T AFFORD TO FIX IT AND WAS TRYING TO COME UP WITH THE MONEY AGAIN THE CAR DIED ON ME AS I WENT TO ACCELERATE NOW THE CAR IS SITTING IN MY YARD DEAD AS A DOORNAIL. I CALLED THE DEALER AND EXPLAIN THE SITUATION TO THE DEALER AT LANNAN CHEVROLET IN WOBURN AND I SPOKE WITH THE OWNER AND THE ONLY RESPONSE I GOT WAS WHAT DO YOU WANT THERE'S A HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES ON THE CAR I HAVE BEEN DOING LOTS OF RESEARCH ON THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE AND I'M APPALLED BETWEEN A 2008 AND A 2011 THERE HAS BEEN HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE.THESE ARE SAFETY ISSUES WHERE PEOPLE CAN GET KILLED. OUT OF ALL THESE SAFETY ISSUES THERE'S NOT ONE INVESTIGATION THAT HAS BEEN OPENED IN REGARDS TO THE ISSUES. NHTSA OR GM NEEDS TO OPEN AN INVESTIGATION IMMEDIATELY ON THESE CARS. THERE IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND A RECALL IS NECESSARY.VIN NUMBER..(XXXXX) REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS OFF AN ON WITH SEVERAL ISSUES I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S SENSOR , WIRING, WHEEL, OR OTHER RELATED BUT I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH SERVICE STABIL TRAK, SERVICE AIRBAGS, TRACTION CONTROL, BRAKING RELATED, ETC. MOST RECENT HAS BEEN WITH SERVICE STABIL TRAK . I TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID COMPUTER SHOWED THROTTLE BODY NEEDED REPLACED AND I'VE DONE THAT THEN A COUPLE WEEKS LATER SAME LIGHTS COMING ON ONLY THIS TIME DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S THE RIGHT WHEEL SPEED SENSOR HARNESS BUT I DIDN'T HAVE THAT REPAIRED BECAUSE I AM SEEING IN FORUMS ONLINE OTHERS HAVING SAME ISSUES AND IT'S AN ONGOING PROBLEM NO MATTER WHAT PART OF THE SYSTEM YOU FIX SO I'VE BEEN TURNING OFF TRACTION CONTROL SO I DON'T GET WARNING LIGHTS . VEHICLE ALWAYS IN MOTION WITH THESE PROBLEMS AND AFTER ALL THE ISSUES I'VE HAD AND STILL HAVE I KNOW NOW THAT AN ACCIDENT THAT HAPPENED ABOUT A YEAR AGO IS DEFINITELY RELATED TO ALL THIS . I WAS APPROACHING A BUSY INTERSECTION AND SAW LIGHT WAS YELLOW SO I STARTED SLOWING DOWN AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP I REMEMBER HAVING MY FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL AND NEXT THING I KNEW MY CAR HAD SLAMMED INTO THE REAR OF THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME IT HAPPENED SO FAST I WAS STUNNED AND COULDN'T COMPREHEND WHAT HAD JUST HAPPENED AND THE PERSON I HIT WAS A PREGNANT FEMALE WHO WAS VERY UPSET. I TOLD HER I HAD NO IDEA HOW THE INCIDENT COULD'VE HAPPENED WITH MY FOOT ON BRAKE WE WERE BOTH ON OUR WAY TO WORK AND SINCE THERE WAS NO REAL PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO OUR VEHICLES WE JUST EXCHANGED INFO AND HEADED TO WORK. I KNOW NOW IT WAS RELATED TO THIS SOMEHOW AND WISHED I WOULD'VE REPORTED IT. THE CAR HAD ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN!! I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP WITH 41,000 MILES (HIGHWAY MILES ) I WAS TOLD IT NOW HAS 92,000 MILES ON IT AND I HAVE DONE ALL THE OIL CHANGES AND REQUIRED MAINTENANCE BUT HAVE SPENT SEVERAL THOUSAND HOURS AT DEALERSHIP WITH EVERY ISSUE IMAGINABLE.

JANUARY 2019 WAS DRIVING ON A VERY CONGESTED INTERSTATE 95 AT THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT OF 65. A WARNING POPPED UP ON MY DASH BOARD.SERVICE STABIL TRAK ENGINE IN REDUCED POWER. IT WAS LIKE I LONGER CONTROLLED MY CAR. THE SPEED SUDDENLY DROPPED. I WENT FROM 65MPH TO MAYBE 30MPH. IT FELT LIKE MY BRAKES WERE BEING APPLIED . I BECAME SCARED AND ALMOST STARTED TO PANIC. BUT BECAUSE I WAS IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE INTERSTATE. I SAT THERE ON THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE WITH MY HEART RACING AND MY HANDS LOCKED ON THE STEERING WHEEL SO HARD THEY CRAMPED UP. I TURNED OFF MY CAR AND REMOVED THE KEYS FROM THE IGNITION. I THANKED GOD I WAS ALONE IN THAT CAR. I THANKED GOD THE CAR BEHIND ME WAS NOT TAILGATING ME. I WAITED FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND THEN PUT THE KEY BACK IN THE IGNITION AND STARTED THE CAR UP. THE WARNING WAS GONE BUT THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON. I WAS SCARED TO DEATH TO MERGE BACK ONTO THE INTERSTATE SO I PUT ON MY FLASHERS AND DROVE ON THE SHOULDER AT 20-30MPH UNTIL I GOT TO THE FIRST EXIT. I MADE IT HOME. I CALLED A CAR REPAIR COMPANY. THEY TOLD ME THE SENSOR MORE THAN LIKELY NEED TO BE RESET. THEY SUGGESTED I TAKE IT TO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER. THE NEXT DAY I STARTED MY CAR UP AND ALL WARNING WERE GONE SO I DID NOT TAKE IT TO THE SERVICE CENTER. THE CAR RAN FINE UNTIL TODAY 52/20/2019. I JUST FILLED MY TANK UP WITH GAS. TURNED IT ON PUT IT IN GEAR AND DROVE 20FEET WHEN THE SAME ERROR CAME ON . I HAD LOOKED UP THIS ERROR ON THE INTERNET. SEEMS LOTS OF AMERICANS HAVE ALMOST BEEN KILLED BECAUSE A CAR MAKER HAS A MECHANISM BUILT IN TO IT VEHICLE THAT TAKES CONTROL OF THE SPEED TO WHICH THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING. PEOPLE ARE SPENDING A LOT MONEY TO FIX AN ISSUE THAT SEEMS TO NOT HAVE A FIX. CHEVROLET IS PUTTING THE LIVES AND THE LIVES OF OTHERS ON THE ROADS IN JEOPARDY WITH THEIR STABIL TRAK COMPUTER SENSORS.YOUR FAILING AMERICANS

'TAKATA RECALL' WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY VEHICLE WILL LOSE POWER, WHICH CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO SHUT DOWN. ON THE DASHBOARD, SERVICE AIRBAG APPEARS AS WELL AS THE ABS LIGHT AND LOCK MODE COMES ON. THE VEHICLE KEY WILL NOT TURN TO OFF MODE UNTIL A FEW SECONDS. THEN ONCE THE VEHICLE ALLOWS THE KEY TO TURN TO OFF MODE, U HAVE TO WAIT A FEW SECONDS THEN THE CAR WILL START WITH NO PROBLEM AND THE ABS AND LOCK SIGNAL ON DASHBOARD GOES OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN ONE TRIP ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS NOT SAFE AT ALL BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO GET STIFF AND THE TRACTION CONTROL COMES ON THE DASHBOARD AS WELL. WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT THIS? SHOULD I TAKE MY VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALERSHIP? THE LAST TIME THIS PROBLEM HAPPENED TO ME WAS MARCH 14, 2019

CAR GETS SERVICE STABITRACK, TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS WARNING ON DASH. REPLACING WHEEL HUBS WITH SENSORS DOES NOT FIX THIS ISSUE. SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL WANT TO APPLY BRAKES WHILE DRIVING OR REDUCE ENGINE SPEED. I HAVE BEEN THROUGH MANY FORUMS WITH PEOPLE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE ON THE SAME CAR AND THROUGH MULTIPLE YEARS OF MANUFACTURING. FROM THE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE IN THE LAST FEW DAYS IT LOOKS LIKE HUNDREDS OF OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE BUT CHEVROLET IS NOT DOING ANYTHING TO CORRECT IT. NOT SURE AT THIS POINT IF IT IS THE WIRING HARNESS CAUSING THE PROBLEM OR IF THIS COULD BE SOMETHING WITH THE COMPUTER THAT CONTROLS THE STABITRACK, ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL. IF CARS ARE LOOSING POWER AND OR THE BRAKES ARE BEING APPLIED WITH OUT DRIVER CONTROL THIS CAN LEAD TO DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS FOR THE CAR OWNER PASSENGERS AND EVERYONE ELSE DRIVING ON THE SAME ROAD. WITH HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE REPORTING THIS I DO NOT SEE WHY THE CAR OWNER SHOULD NEED TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO DIAGNOSE AND MAYBE FIX THE ISSUE. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ SOME PEOPLE HAVE HAD TO PAY FOR MULTIPLE SERVICE EVENTS AND THE ISSUE STILL NOT RESOLVED.
