2013 Cadillac ATS Vehicle speed control Problems

“When I was driving on the highway my car started to move like it was going to quit on me, I get my car serviced frequently and have replaced the sparkplugs and coil, changed all the gaskets, and I almost got into an accident because the stabilititrack light came on and car did not want to work as it should.

Roads were dry. It was reported to Cadillac via their 800 number and then brought to the dealership 4 march 2014,for analysis. The dealer implemented an update to the active safety control module. …”

I have had 2 accidents. 1 on a very busy crawling road wisconsin ave, dc on a busy sat afternoon in bumper to bumper traffic when I started to accelerate and the force of my movement caused the truck in front of me to crash into another vehicle.
