I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE AT 30 MPH AT 11 PM. MY STABILITRAK LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS ENGINE LIGHT. I LOST POWER AND STOPPED IN AN UNLIT, BUSY INTERSECTION. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE. FORTUNATELY NO CARS HIT ME. I ROLLED INTO A SMALL DITCH AND STOPPED. IF I STEPPED ON THE GAS, NOTHING REALLY HAPPENED. I SHUT CAR OFF AND LOOKED IN OWNERS MANUAL WHERE IT SAID TO START CAR UP AGAIN. I DID AND THEN IT WORKED. I DROVE TO CAR DEALER NEXT DAY AND THEY KNEW EXACTLY WHAT WAS GOING ON AS I GOT OUT OF MY CAR THEY SAID THEY WOULD GIVE ME A LOANER, WHICH I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING. MTHE SAID IT WAS A TRANSMISSION SENSOR OR SWITCH THAT THEY HAD TO REPLACE. OBVIOUSLY, GMMKNOWS ABOUT THIS. THIS COULD HVE BEEN A FATAL ACCIDENT, EASILY. THIS IS A CRIME IN THAT MY DEALER SOLD ME THIS CAR WITHOUT DISCLOSING A KNOWN PROBLEM TO ME. THESE CARS ARE NOT SAFE AND I WILL TRY TO TRADE IT IN ASAP FOR SOMETHING LESS HAZARDOUS. AGAIN, THIS IS A CRIMINAL ACT THAT GM IS DOING BY CONTINUING TO SELL THESE CARS. IF NO ONE HAS DIED YET, THEY WILL SOON. VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM.
