Tl* the contact owns a 2006 gmc envoy. While driving 35 MPH, the traction control malfunctioned. The contact did not take the vehicle to the dealer because it was a long distance away from the contact's residence. The manufacturer was notified of the traction control failure and advised the contact that there were no recalls relating to the failure. The failure mileage was 147,000.

For more than a month my truck has cut off completely as I begin to break when I I am coming to a stop or when I am making a turn into a parking lot or at a corner. Sometimes it happens several times in a row during one trip. It always happens when I am in motion but once I turn on the hazard lights, put the car in park, turn off the ignition and restart it, it cranks right back up. I was told, based on my description that it could be a manufacturers defect in the turndown solenoid switch or sensor associated with the automatic transmission. This is a safety issue but I need my vehicle. This problem always occurs when I am on a city street. It has never happened on a highway/interstate when I am in perpetual motion.this is the only vehicle I have and I can't afford to leave it for more than a day at a shop, nor do I think I should shoulder all the responsibility for paying for repairs if it is a defect inherent in the vehicle. Please advise me as soon as possible if there is any recourse I can take against the manufacturer so I can have these needed repairs done immediately. I have already had the gear shift cable replaced about two months ago thinking that this was the problem. That was a $250 job with parts and labor.

Purchased a pre-owned 2006 gmc envoy from an authorized gmc dealer in columbus, oh, on 12/31/2014. Shortly after purchasing the vehicle, there were constant problems with the stabilitrak feature. The stabilitrak light would randomly come on, and then the ABS would engage causing the vehicle to brake for no reason, while traveling on the highway. This also happens at lower speeds when traveling on residential streets. We've taken the vehicle in for service several times, spent lots of money, and no one can find a problem. Due to the stabilitrak constantly malfunctioning, it is extremely dangerous to drive this vehicle. Gm should be held responsible and issue a recall to fix this problem asap before someone gets killed in an accident as a result of this defect!

Noticed a no traction in my cluster one month before the accident. When I turned the SUV off the light would go away. I had a code check on it and had codes for my ABS. Sensors where checked and tested. No fault in the sensors. The day of the accident as I was passing the person and switching lanes there was a red light ahead I applied my breaks and the no traction came on as I hit a small patch of ice. Traction did not kick on or ABS leading me out to m-24 from a neighborhood road getting hit on the driver side fender by a chevy tracker. After much research and talking with ase tech's. A defective steering positioning sensor was defective and know in the 360 models to go bad. After the replacement no problem miles at 100097.

I was driving about 65mph down I-35 in austin, texas and suddenly my car dropped to about 40mpg and the "stabilitrak off" message appeared. A definite safety hazard because someone could have, and almost did, rear-end me. I had to get off the freeway and turn my car off for about 10 minutes. Restarted and made it home ok. Today, august 28, the same thing happened again.. It happens without any warning. There should be a safety recall on this. I'm surprised that there has not been a major incident when this happens.

On 12/23/13, while parked the vehicle died. When restarting, it was a little slow but did end up starting. On 12/24/13, I had the battery tested and it showed that the cca's just needed a good charge so I let the vehicle run for 45 minutes. A few hours later, the vehicle would not even turn over. On 12/25/13, removed the battery and reinstalled it. The vehicle started fine and ran well for a few days. On 1/1/14, vehicle stalled while driving. Ended up restarting but I had to give it gas to do so. On 1/2/14, I started the car to warm it up and it started fine. I let it run for 20-30 minutes before attempting to drive it. When I got in the vehicle, it said that the brake system was not working and the stabilitrack light was flashing on and off intermittently. I had to get a cab to work & have it towed to the shop. I'm hoping to hear back tomorrow in regards to what is going on. Also, had to get a rental vehicle in the meantime for transportation.
