Consumer Description

AT 30K MILES THE STABILITY AND WOULD PUT MY CAR IN LIMP MODE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ONTHE INTERSTATES. SUDDENLY DROPPING THE SPEED TO ABOUT 30 MPH. I DEALT WITH THIS BY KEEPING THE STABILITRAC TURNED OFF. NOW AT 100K IT TURNED ON AND OFF BY ITSELF. REEDING BLOGS I HAVE FOUND NO FIX FOR THIS. THE VEHICLE NOW FILLS WITH FUMES. I WILL PROBABLY NEVER BUY ANOTHER GM PRODUCT. I CAN NOT USE MY CAR. THIS HAPPENS IN ALMOST EVERY DRIVING SITUATION.
