Stabilitrak and abs light comes on while driving, the door locks go crazy, radio goes in and out and you lose the ability to accelerate. Engine acts like it wants to die out. The first time i had it taken in, they said it was a sensor so i paid $600 to have it fixed. 6 months later it started doing the same thing so the same sensor was replaced again. One month later my tahoe is doing the exact same thing and now…

This caused my vehicle to slow down to that 65mph to about 35 rapidly. I was able to move over and pull over to the side of the road. Once i stopped the car it was idling very…

I started to encounter the following errors on my 2011 chevy tahoe; service traction control, service stabilitrak, engine power reduced during the winter months of 2012-2013. I could be simply doing the task of warming the vehicle up in the morning, driving on a paved road going 35mph, or full blown in the middle of freeway/highway traffic. The vehicle will violently start to idle with the warning indicators…
