Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2008 GMC SIERRA 1500. I HAVE READ ON ONE POST ALONE ABOUT A "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" MESSAGE BEING DISPLAYED, AND THERE ARE OVER 400 PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS. THE VEHICLES FROM GM GO INTO A REDUCED POWER AND HAVE NO THROTTLE AT SPEEDS OF UP TO 75+MPH. THERE HAVE BEEN WRECKS FROM THIS AND YET GM DOES NOTHING ABOUT IT. I HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE 2 NIGHTS AGO DOING 50 MPH WITH MY 3 YEAR OLD IN THE BACK SEAT. I WAS A LUCKY ONE AND HAD ROOM TO PULL OVER BEFORE SOMEONE SMACKED INTO THE BACK OF MY TRUCK. PLEASE DO SOMETHING FOR GM OWNERS!!!!!!! THIS IS BS AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! I GUESS SOMEONE HAS TO DIE FIRST BEFORE A RECALL??? GOVERNMENT MOTORS IS CRAP PEOPLE. DON'T BUY! *TR
