The brake lights will come on and stay on and the cruise control will not work also the traction control will shut off I feel this is a major safety to me and my family but cant seem to get GM to feel the same way with paying the bill. I seen you had a recall from 2005 to 2009 on these cars with the same problem I think the 2010 should be included. [xxx]
