“My wife and I bought a vehicle from cardenas superstore in pharr, tx. We've been to them 4 times, in which they've sent our Tahoe to the local GM/Chevrolet dealer in our area. Generally, when the weather is warm, stabilitrak and traction control will disable and we will see a series of warning lights. The ABS warning light will go off, the air conditioner temperature will rise to a warm temp, the locks will start unlocking and locking randomly, hard transmission jerks between first and second gear, and little power when trying to increase speed. …”
