Description of the problem	This is a formal complaint against general motors regarding the 2012 chevrolet traverse traction control system. A safety hazard among myself and others home can be seriously injured if not killed. I use this vehicle to and from work about 75 miles to commute through the cascade mountains. We bought this chevy traverse october 2016 and have regularly serviced and maintained the vehicle to the best of our ability including or not limited to oil changes and tire rotations but also power steering/suspension work. There has been no accidents or abuse as a driver. All of a sudden on my way home from work approximately 60 miles an hour decreasing speed as sharp curves approaching. With no warning it felt as if there was minimal power and no control the car dramatically reduced from 60 to about 20 25 miles an hour, while their vehicles behind me and had to slam on their brakes as i was way before the actual curves at this point in time i noticed check engine light blinking an error message stating service traction control system as well as stabilitrak. As we proceed it around curves at an uphill slant i was unable to maintain speed but decreasing from 25 down to 10 - 12 miles an hour. Route 66 ashland oregon is dangerous with back-to-back sharp curves blind spots narrow roads and weather cousin fatalities every year. Looking behind me a few cars could have easily been hit from anyone coming around that curve. A speed limit of 55 miles an hour and not being able to reach 20 mph. This morning once again happened so i pulled over to troubleshoot online and i found from 2009 there have been a series of complaints that gm's motors lacks responsibility that pertains two the traction control system among traverse as well as other models. I am simply trying to prevent myself wife three children and you from a potential fatality of which can be prevented.
