| Description of the problem | I have a gm product. A 2009 chevy tahoe with only 7,000 miles on it. It turn off itself witout any warning i am approaching the stop sign or traffic light and when start to turn i noticed the vehicle have turn off itself. Since i can not steer well since the vehicle is off is then when i can hit a car or cause a rear end crash because i am abruptely stoping. I had to put the vehicle in parking and the vehicle start right away with hot air coming from the vents of the air conditioning. The vehicle came with a 3 year 0r 36,000 miles warranty. I took the vehicle to the dealership and no codes are coming. This always occur randomly and when approaching intersections and in two ocasions i almost have an accident. I have talked to the dealership here in lake city and they told me that the vehicle is not on the recall but is showing exactly the problem described in the recall. I also wrote a letter to gm along with the recall and no action is taken by gm. As myself i hope we don't have other customer accross the nation dealing with this problem and gm not acting and dealership not acting i learn my lesson with gm. |
