Consumer Description

DRIVING 2011 CHEVY IMPALA IN CITY TRAFFIC. SERVICE STABILITRAK, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, REDUCED ENGINE POWER WARNING MESSAGES RECEIVED. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AT INTERMITTENT INTERVALS IN THE TWO YEARS I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. IN SOME INSTANCES, THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF AND ALL POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKING IS LOST MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. AFTER RESEARCH, THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT GM NEEDS TO ADDRESS. I HAVE FOUND THAT IF I PULL OVER WHEN THE WARNING MESSAGES DISPLAY, SHUT THE CAR OFF, WAIT APPROX 10 MIN, THE CAR WILL START AGAIN, THE MESSAGES WILL BE GONE, AND THE CAR WILL DRIVE NORMALLY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON AND THEN GOES OFF WITHIN A DAY OR TWO. *TR
