What owners wrote
Dec 2013 vehicle hit pot hole while braking at approaching intersection, after that warning lights started flashing ABS brakes/tract control/stab control, I was unable to brake, then shut down. Since then temp gauge went bad n was replaced. The 3 above dash warning lights continued intermittently, worse when it rained. At take offs n turns car would jar n ABS brake system would pulsate(grabs). Hub/speed sensor was replaced, this did not help.
When the traction control system activated the engine idle decreased and the system could not locate the new throttle position. This caused the eng power reduction and fault warnings on eng tcs and scs to light in order to drive I had faults cleared and turned off systems. GM says the codes have to be read to fix.unsafe.
