“I was driving down the highway going about 65 MPH & then a message appeared on my dash that states check stabilitrak/traction control off. I then braked to pull over & the truck began to shake as if the suspension & brakes were being affected. While I was driving this error message would appear & then go off & continued to do this for 3-4 hours while I was driving.”

“Having alot of issues with traction control light coming on and off causing my truck to either shut off/stall or just not turn on than the check engine came on arggg. I took to dealers was told its my throttle sensor got it replaced $$750.00 ughh then it happened again and then when I try and turn it on again it will flash traction light on and off so I turn it off then turn it on and it goes away, later comes on then off random times I checked this site since I seen news and seen other people having the same issue. …”

“As I was driving 'oil pressure is low, cut the engine off' warning came on and the oil light was on. That also triggered the traction control/stabilitrak light to come on. From then on whenever I drive the vehicle those lights come on as well as the check engine light. This is apparently a common problem with the Gmc 2007 engine. There are multiple forms from chevy, cadillac, and Gmc where consumers that have these engines are experiencing this problem. When we take it to dealerships we are told to change the engine. I was just quoted over $8000 to change this engine. …”

“I was traveling on the freeway at about 70 MPH coming from a supervision training class along with a co-worker and the following sensor lights started appearing on my dashboard: traction control off, stabilitrak off. This has continued to happen on a regular basis. I have taken it to the GM service at least twice and private repair facilities numerous times and the situation continues. It is now 01-28-2014 and the situation continues and is getting worse. Alone with the above issues now the reduce engine power light comes on and the engine shuts down. …”

“This has now happened several times since, at no particular speed. I will be driving and all of a sudden the stabilitrak lights and traction control lights come on, and the engine begins to run very hard and will not accelerate very quickly and cannot reach full capacity. This is somewhat scary as it has happened on the highway several times, as well as just driving around my residential area, always with my kids in the car. Usually once I turn the car off and leave it for a little bit, then restart it, the lights are off except the engine light will stay on. …”
