2008 GMC Acadia electronic stability control (esc) problems

“THIS VEHICLE WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN START SWAYING FROM SIDE TO SIDE AND THE STABILITRAK LIGHT WILL COME ON. IN ADDITION, THE TRANSMISSION WILL SUDDENLY SEIZE UP, LOSING ACCELERATION AND NEARLY CAUSING A CRASH. THE ENGINE WILL ALSO STATE THAT IT IS OVERHEATING, ALL OF A SUDDEN AND THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT ITSELF OFF AND SMOKE WILL START COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE GOING BETWEEN 35 AND 65 MPH. ON THE STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. MY CHILDREN IN THE BUCKET SEATS IN THE BACK WERE SLEEP AND THEIR HEADS HIT THE WINDOW. THEY SUSTAINED INJURY. THAT WAS ON A REGULAR STREET AND THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 35 MPH. I WAS WITHIN OR SLIGHTLY UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTED SWAYING UNEXPECTEDLY. WHEN THE ROAD IS WET, IT WILL SWAY FROM SIDE TO SIDE ON SIMPLE CURVES IN THE ROAD. I HAVE HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED TWICE. DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERNS AND FEAR OF MY FAMILY BEING FATALLY INJURED, IT WAS AROUND CHRISTMAS TIME. I HAVE HAD TO PARK THE VEHICLE. I HAVE CONTACTED GMC BY PHONE SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO RESPONSE IN RETURN. I SPOKE WITH SOMEONE AND WAS INFORMED TO REPORT IT TO NHTSA. MAYBE SOMETHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE A DEATH OCCURS.”

“STABILITY TRACK WARNING LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON I WAS TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THAT IT COULD BE THE SENSOR SO I HAD IT REPLACED WITH A FACTORY BRAND GMC SENSOR AND I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. ALSO MY PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG KEEPS SAYING IT NEEDS TO BE SERVICED BUT IT'S NEVER BEEN DEPLOYED AND NO ONE HAS AN ANSWER FOR WHY THIS WARNING KEEPS COMING UP THE STABILITY TRACK WARNING COMES ON AS I'M DRIVING EVERY TIME AFTER ABOUT 10 TO 15 MINUTES AND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING COMES ON AS SOON AS I START THE VEHICLE ENGINE. AND ALSO I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH CODE P0700 IT KEEPS TURNING ON MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND I HAD IT FIXED BUT IT STILL KEEPS TURNING ON . RATTLING NOISE IN IDLE”

“CONTROL BOARD SHOWS SERVICE STABILITY TRACK, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, LIGHTS ON DASH BOARD GOES ON AND OFF AS IF THERE'S ELECTRICAL ISSUES. STABILITY TRACK LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF.”

“SERVICE AIR BAGS LIGHT CAME ON. OCCASIONALLY SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON AND TRACTION CONTROL TURNS OFF AND BACK ON WHILE DRIVING WHEN TRACTION CONTROL RETURNS WARNING LIGHT DISAPPEARS. SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING AND HAS NOT CAME OFF. ALL OF THE ABOVE HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY GOING NO FASTER THAN 55MPH DRY CONDITIONS. VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT WHILE OWNED BY CURRENT OWNER.”

“I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THE STABILITRAK TURNED ITSELF OFF AND A WARNING LIGHT CAME ON SAYING IT WAS OFF AND TO SERVICE IT. I TRIED TO PUSH THE BUTTON AND IT DID NOTHING AND THEN IT CLEARED ITSELF AND TURNED BACK ON WITHOUT ANY PROMPT AND WHEN SLOWING DOWN AND PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES AND THE WHOLE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CAR SHAKES.”
