What owners wrote
This has happened twice in the last week. Today I was sitting at a stoplight with my foot on the brake and suddenly without warning my 2010 silverado accelerated and lunged forward about 3 feet. Fortunately there was not a car or person in front of me or I surely would have had an accident then the engine started missing. At the same time my check engine light came on. Service traction control, service stabiltrak, engine power reduced flashed on my dash. I limped home at 10-15 MPH max!
I have not gotten the recall on the airbag fixed as of this date. Dealer says there is no fix for it. As for the stability control and traction control, I was driving the truck on a local street when the rear wheels locked up. Luckily I was only doing about 30 when this happened. I took it to the dealer figuring it was a recall seeing as I feel it is a safety issue. I was charged $654.00 to repair it.
