NHTSA complaint #11378053, filed 2020-12, 86,000 miles

“Was at a traffic light near my job when my car suddenly shuts off, never happened before so as I try to restart it wouldn't start at all. I caused a lot of traffic due to this. Living in nyc that's a big no no. As I looked on the dash while keep trying to get it to start different light started to come on the car was going out of wack. …”

“My car decided recently to start acting weird and the engine power went low and traction control went off and then my car would barely run. It says it could be the throttle body. It had done it twice since saturday and starts running ok afterwards but want to see what's wrong and why it just started doing this. Never had any trouble till then.”

“Engine power reduced, stability track loss lights came on and my vehicles engine power came to a stop with my children in the car with my wife on the hwy. Could not move the vehicle. Dealership can not figure out the issue, only found multiple codes from the past and still could not solve the issue. Gm needs to stand by their product and replace these vehicles asap or fix this issue. Lawsuits will be filed.”

NHTSA complaint #10944156, filed 2017-01, 31,624 miles

“My electronic stability control comes on and off its loose. I push it back in pops out. The TCM female connector/adaptor is faulty and I was told I would have to buy a completely new harness which is ridiculous. The locking mechanism doesn't hold in place so it loses connection to the TCM trans module. And when I contact my local chevy dealer they want me to but a new harness which I $600+++ and the clip/adapter/connector is $22-$29. If im on the freeway my speed can drop to 20mph. On the 215 freeway.”
