Consumer Description

I DON'T REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE, BUT APPROXIMATELY 2 YRS AGO, I BEGAN SEEING THE SEQUENCE OF MESSAGES, "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABILITRAK, ENGINE POWER REDUCED," AND THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON ALONG WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM LIGHT. THE CAR SPEED WAS OBVIOUSLY REDUCED AND I COULDN'T REALLY ACCELERATE. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO CARMAX AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING AND DID NOT KNOW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. IT HAPPENS SPORADICALLY, BUT SEEMINGLY ALWAYS ON THE INTERSTATE WHILE I'M TRAVELING AROUND 65--70 MPH. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, AND I'VE BEEN TRYING TO RESEARCH WHAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL ITEM. I THINK THIS WILL BE THE LAST CHEVY I PURCHASE! *TR
