NHTSA Complaint #10862581 — 2011 CHEVROLET IMPALA

GOT A MESSAGE ON MY DASH A FEW MONTHS AGO ABOUT "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" WHILE DRIVING. TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT LIT UP ALSO. PARKED CAR AND TURNED CAR OFF THEN ON...MESSAGE GONE. TOOK IT INTO SERVICE...SHOWED NO ERROR CODES. TODAY (5/2/16), IT DID IT AGAIN WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SIMULTANEOUSLY LIGHTING UP. "SERVICE STABILITRAK", SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL", AND "ENGINE POWER IS RECUDED" ARE THE MESSAGES I GOT TODAY ALONG WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT BEING ON. I HAD JUST GOTTEN OFF THE HIGHWAY SO I WASN'T GOING FAST WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I WAS CLOSE TO WORK SO I PARKED IT AT WORK. TURNED THE CAR OFF THEN ON AGAIN AND THE MESSAGES WERE GONE AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WAS OFF BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON. TURNED CAR ON AGAIN AT LUNCH 1.5 HOURS LATER AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS OFF NOW SO I DOUBT ANYONE WILL BE ABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR FIX ANYTHING TODAY. TAKING IT TO SERVICE TO SEE IF IT THREW ANY ERROR CODES A LITTLE LATER TODAY. I'VE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND FOUND THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. IF IT HAPPENS TO ME AND I'M IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS, I WILL SUE THE S**T OUT OF GM. I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN AND IF ANY OF US GETS HURT OR KILLED, THERE WILL BE H**L TO PAY. THIS ISSUE SHOULD ABSOLUTELY BE RECALLED. IT IS NOT DUE TO MY KEY/IGNITION ISSUE. ALREADY HANDLED THAT RECALL. LOSING POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY RANDOMLY IS ABSOLUTELY DANGEROUS AND I'M NOW VERY AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER IMPALA AGAIN.
