March 2008 my car started not responding properly with my throttle pedal position. I took it to 2 car dealers under warranty to have it repaired. While in stop and go traffic the car will accelerate on it's own. It has traveled in excess of 35 MPH on it's own - I usually shift the car to nuetral to get it to stop. As of july 1 / 2008 the dealer has all but given up repairing this problem. I now have parked the car because it is unsafe to drive and hired a attorny to fight gm to repair or refund my money for this car.

Driving along on a dry road when the car started making dinging sounds. The ABS and ESC dummy lights came on. The radio displayed the following, "ESC service requested". The dealership determined that the sensor harness was rubbing against the front axle, which caused the casing to become compromised and short out. This caused both the ABS braking system and electronic stability control system to fail. The vehicle at the time was only two weeks old and only had 480 miles on it. The dealership had to order a new wire harness and sensor control modules to replace the faulty ones.
