Consumer Description
I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD WITH MY FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AND STARTING VIBRATING AND OPERATING ROUGHLY. THE STABILITRAK/REDUCED ENGINE POWER TROUBLE LIGHT WAS DISPLAYED. THIS CERTAINLY BECAME AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE THE VEHICLE COULD ONLY ACCELERATE TO 15 TO 30 MPH. I WAS ABLE TO MANAGE THE PROBLEM LONG ENOUGH TO RETURN HOME, WHICH WAS ONLY A FEW MILES AWAY FROM THE ONSET. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD PERFORMED THE REQUIRED SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE ON THIS VEHICLE. HOWEVER, SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE NEW IN 2011 AND EXPERIENCING MULTIPLE RECALLS AND A AIR BAG SAFETY ISSUE AND NOW THIS, I HAVE BECOME CONCERNED ABOUT THE RELIABILITY AND SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 61,000 MILES ON IT AND SHOULD NOT BE EXPERIENCING THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. I BELIEVE GMC CORPORATION SHOULD MAKE A CONCERTED EFFORT TO RECALL ANY OF THEIR VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM. *TR
