Consumer Description
MY ISSUE WAS THAT I WAS FOUR MONTHS INTO DRIVING MY NEW 2009 CHEVY IMPALA AND WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 60 MPH MY CAR SHOWED FLASHING SIGNAL READING "ENGINE REDUCED SPEED" "CHECK STABILITRACK " AND MY CHECK ENGINE WAS ON. THE CAR THEN STOPPED ACCELERATING AND DROPPED TO 45 MPH IMMEDIATELY. I WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED WITH MY SON IN THE CAR. AFTER RESEARCHING AND HEARING COMPLAINTS ABOUT GM AND HOW THEY ARE NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE AND ACTUALITY CHARGING PEOPLE TO FIX THEIR DEFECT. THEIR ARE NUMEROUS BLOGS AND VIDEOS PROVING THIS. EXAMPLES: SHOW OVER 23,000 DRIVERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE HTTP://WWW.[XXX] : HTTP://WWW.[XXX] THANK GOD IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE ANY FATALITIES HAVE OCCURRED AS OF YET BUT WHO KNOWS. PLEASE DON'T LET SOMEONE GET INJURED OR LOSE THEIR LIFE TO TAKE NOTICE TO THIS. GM THINKS INJURY OR LOSE OF LIFE = $222.00. I AM IN CONTACT WITH A LAW FIRM IN HOPES OF A CLASS ACTION. *TR PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
