Consumer Description

ON GOING ISSUE WITH TRACTION CONTROL/STABILITRAK SYSTEM. INTERMITTENTLY A WARNING WILL COME UP ON DASH STATING . . . TRACTION CONTROL OFF - SERVICE STABILITRAK. MOST TIMES, ONCE YOU SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND THEN START IT BACK UP THE WARNING WILL GO AWAY. RECENTLY THE WARNING HAS REMAINED ON DASH AND NEITHER THE TRACTION CONTROL OR ANTI-LOCK BRAKES HAVE FUNCTIONED. TWO MONTHS AGO THE EGR VALVE WAS REPLACED. OVER A YEAR AGO THE WIRING HARNESS TO THE EGR VALVE WAS REPLACED. NOW THE STUPID THING IS ACTING UP AGAIN AND HEADED TO THE SHOP FOR ABOUT THE TWELFTH TIME FOR THIS ONE ISSUE. THIS HAS GOT TO BE ONE OF THE UNSAFEST AND SCARY VEHICLES I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. NEVER KNOW WHEN YOUR ANTI-LOCK BRAKES AND TRACTION CONTROL WILL STOP WORKING OR IF YOUR GOING TO LOOSE ENGINE POWER AT A CRITICAL TIME WHEN DRIVING. *TR
