“RANDOMLY I RECEIVE THE MESSAGE "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL - ENGINE POWER REDUCED" - THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON. IT HAPPENS ON NICE DAYS, RAINY DAYS, WHETHER OR NOT I AM GOING UPHILL, DOWNHILL OR ON FLAT SURFACES. ON AT LEAST ONE OCCASION WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND I HAD TO COAST FROM LANE 2 TO THE SHOULDER. AFTER 20 MINUTES, IT RESTARTED. *TR”

“THE STABILITRAK IS MAKING THE CAR SHAKE AND ACT CRAZY. I'M BARELY IN CONTROL OF THE CAR. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF MORE PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE CAR REDUCES SPEED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. MANY GROUPS AND BLOGS ONLINE ABOUT THIS. WHY HASN'T ANYTHING BEEN DONE ABOUT THIS? NO RECALLS OR ANYTHING.”

“MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCES AN 'ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED' MESSAGE IN ADDITION TO LOSING CAPABILITY OF DRIVING FASTER THAN 40 MPH LIKELY AS A RESULT OF A COMMON FAULT BY THE MANUFACTURER.”

“TRACTION CONTROL AND THE STABILITY TRAC REDUCES THE ENGINE SPEED UNDER NORMAL WEATHER CONDITIONS DRASTICALLY WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS. BEEN ACTING UP FOR SOME TIME. DEALERS DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND DOESN'T GIVE A CODE. VERY DANGEROUS AND FRUSTRATING.”

“ENGIME POWER REDUCED SEEVICE TRACTUON CONTROL. WHILE DRIVING POWER IS CUT TO NEAR NOTHING. ABOUT 20 MPH. AFTER SHUTTING THE CAR OFF AND STARTING A FEW HOURS LATER IT'S FINE. A COUPLE DAYS LATER IT HAPPENS AGAIN. FAULTY EQUIPMENT FROM GM.”
