NHTSA Complaint #10577819 — 2010 CHEVROLET IMPALA

WHEN THE INCIDENT FIRST OCCURRED, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE DASH READ "SERVICE STABILITRAK", "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" AND "ENGINE POWER REDUCED". IT SEEMED FINE WHEN I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND TURNED IT BACK ON. THE NEXT INCIDENT DIDN'T HAPPEN UNTIL A WHILE LATER, AND THEN IT WASN'T THAT BAD. A FEW MONTHS LATER, I WAS DRIVING BACK ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED, EXCEPT IT SAID "STARTING DISABLED, SERVICE THROTTLE" AND THE CAR SHUT OFF. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE AND I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES. IT WAS A SCARY EXPERIENCE. EVENTUALLY, LEADING UP TO TODAY, MY CAR GOT WORSE AND WORSE, AND EVENTUALLY IT JUST STARTED TURNING OFF AT STOPLIGHTS WITH THE MESSAGE "STARTING DISABLED, SERVICE THROTTLE". IT STARTS WITH THE OTHER MESSAGES ALMOST AS SOON AS I TURN ON THE CAR. THE ENGINE REVS AND THE CAR SOUNDS AWFUL. *TR
