Description of the problem	A few weeks ago i was traveling down hwy 60 in southwest missouri and the "reduced engine power" light came on. The vehicle immediately slowed to about 4-5 miles per hour and i was unable to accelerate. I crawled to the next exit where i barely made it up the incline and into a gas station. We checked the gas, oil, battery, etc. I turned off the vehicle and when i started it up again, it seemed fine. I continued home. The next day i took it to a mechanic who said that it all checked out perfectly and there was nothing wrong. This has happened 12-15 times in the last month and every time i take it to the mechanic, he tells me that the computer is not "throwing codes" and there is nothing wrong. This is not a figment of my imagination. This keeps happening. The most recent "episode" was last night. We took the boat down to the river to go gigging at night. When i went to pull the trailer up the boat ramp and park the vehicle, the "reduced engine power" light again came on and i could not pull up the hill. Every time i attempted it, the light came on and i actually went backwards towards the river!! My children were in the vehicle and i was scared we would be trapped it something further malfunctioned and we rolled back into the deep cold water!!! From what i have now researched gm is aware of this problem and i do not understand why a problem this potentially deadly has not been dealt with! I am not the first owner of this vehicle and have never had a problem like this. I am a single mother of three beautiful boys and i am scared to drive my car because of this. I cannot put them in a potentially deadly situation. So our only vehicle sits and waits in our driveway leaving me stranded a lot until gm can come up with a solution on their dime. This isn't fair that a problem is know and no one at gm will fix it. Please help fix this before someone dies!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
