“Stability traction control light keeps coming on while in motion. With major oil consumption problems. Just in regular driving I've had transmission, and rear differential work done fixed the problem for a few months now back again with flashing check engine light. Saying cylinder 6 misfiring. I've already sunk in over 4k in this after buying it last year in dec.of 2017. After reading comments this really should be a recall. With so many of the same concerns and complaints that have been listed.”

“January 2011: I'm having the exact same problems with my 2007 suburban as the complaint filed on june 13, 2010. This is a problem that I had when the vehicle was new, as well. The engine seemed to be sputtering while idling today and by the end of the day it lost its stability control with warning signals illuminated on the dash. The transmission is bucking out of 1st gear and begins to grind slowly from a stop. I concur that this problem should be recalled, as it poses great danger on the road.”

“Engine started idling rough and the 'engine light' came on and stayed on.then the next day, went to start car and it was really idling rough, sputtering, then stablitrak light and 'traction control off' light and ABS lights all came on. The car felt like it was going to die until about 20 MPH, then made a jerking motion and ran fine. This continued to happen until I took it to the shop. They kept it for a week, replaced the fuel pump, but this did not fix the problem. The car still runs rough and the lights still come on whenever I have to idle, intersections, etc... …”
