"SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" AND "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" WARNING DURING NORMAL DRIVING ON MY WAY TO WORK THIS MORNING.

APPARENTLY THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM WITH IMPALAS FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW THAT GM IS SEEMINGLY UNABLE TO FIX. HAD I KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUE I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED AN IMPALA. GM SOLD ME A LEMON. VERY DISAPPOINTED. *TR
