Description of the problem | While driving our 2016 chevrolet traverse, without warning, the dashboard flashed a warning that the traction control and stabilitrak needed to be serviced. It also displayed that engine power was reduced and the vehicle immediately decelerated to 25 mph. The vehicle was traveling at over 70 mph on the freeway and we had to try to make it back over onto the right hand shoulder without someone plowing into us. Over the last two days, this has occurred four more times for no discernable reason. This issue is an extreme safety hazard as it can occur at any time, at any speed and the vehicle is immediately reduced to 25 mph. Chevrolet is highly negligent in addressing this problem. As i began researching this issue, i've found cases of this occurring in the traverse and equinox models as early as 2011. |
