At random times the car will get the check engine light (Code P2138 when scanned) & show a message on the dash saying “engine power reduced”. This happened to me twice while driving on the highway & 4 other times while driving on city streets. When this happens , I have to pull over to the side of the rode as fast as I can to avoid getting hit by other vehicles since the car looses power. The car has been to the Chevrolet dealership a total 4 times having the pedal replaced but the issue has not been fixed.

Interior lights stayed on and I star was contacted as I was afraid to drive with a light on and they stated that it's safe to drive. I drive to work and 5 miles from work the vehicle stalled while operating and the engine light comes on. I got the vehicle in december with 4 miles and onstar did a diagnostic and it states engine and transmission problems. I'm unnerved by the whole experience and now it is at the service department at gordon chevrolet while I await what's wrong with my car
