“I was driving at 75 MPH and my engine shut off; car began to slow, fuel dropped, power steering went out, brakes didn't work. I was able to, thankfully, get to the side of the road safely and use the rumble strips to slow me down. I turned the car off and 5 min. Later turned it on and was able to drive to a safe location. This is a common issue and all of these conditions are related to the limited warranty protection that GM issued nov. 2015 (14582). This is a safety hazard. …”

The dealership stated the fuel sensors needed to be replaced at a total cost of $1700.00. …”
