It's similar to when you drive a stickshift and take your foot off the clutch and the car jumps forward as if it might stall. It doesn't happen regularly. If i decelerate very quickly, then it does not do it. If i decelerate slowly then it does not do it. It has to be somewhere in between and the car is confused…

    When turning on the brights on my 2015 chevytahoe the dash screen will flash on and off, as well as shut off the cruise control when on. In addition, the stabilitrak will flash an error message. In addition to all of this the headlights flash while driving. At night this is very scary and harmful. These electrical issues need to be corrected!
