Consumer Description

AFTER STARTING MY CAR (AND SITTING STILL), I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE, MY CAR STARTED SHAKING AND MY DASHBOARD LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE. SERVICE ENGINE SOON, SERVICE STABILITRAK, REDUCED ENGINE POWER. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED NOW! HAD I BEEN TRAVELING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, OR IF MY CHILDREN HAD BEEN IN THE CAR WITH ME WHEN THIS HAPPENED, I SHUDDER TO THINK WHAT COULD'VE HAPPENED. PLEASE, PLEASE PUT OUT A RECALL TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. AGAIN, I FEEL THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ON GM FORUMS/BLOGS. *JS
