Consumer Description

I HAVE READ MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS SIMILAR TO MINE . I WAS DRIVING YESTERDAY AND THE "SERVICE STABILITRAK, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" WARNINGS CAME ON. AFTER A FEW MINUTES "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" WARNING CAME ON AND THE CAR WOULD NOT RUN OVER 50 MPH. THIS IS ON A 2008 CHEVROLET IMPALA. I WAS DRIVING 45 MPH AND WHEN THE LIGHTS COME ON ,THEY JUST AS QUICKLY TURN OFF AND ON AGAIN. THE CAR SHOOK AND THE THROTTLE WAS A BIT OFF. IT WAS VERY SCARY TO DRIVE, ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS HAPPENED AT NIGHT AND IT IS NOT THE FIRST INCIDENT.AS OF TODAY, THIS IS THE 5TH TIME I HAVE DEALT WITH "REDUCED ENGINE POWER"/"SERVICE STABILITRAK". SUCH A SAFETY ISSUE. INSTEAD OF BEING SCARED OF GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT, I'M FEARFUL I WILL BE THE ONE CAUSING THE PILE UP. *TR
