Vsa Warning Light On problem #2

Tl- the contact owns a 2012 Buick Enclave. The contact stated that while traveling at 70 mph, the vehicle began to lose power as the traction control stability warning light illuminated. The contact was able to drive her vehicle to a service station. The contact called her husband who was able to restart start the vehicle and drove it home. Since the initial failure, the traction control stability light would flash intermittently as the vehicle would stall; once the light disappeared, the vehicle would resume normal driving. The vehicle was initially taken to terry labonte Chevrolet 1401 bridford pkwy, greensboro, nc 27407 where the steering sensor was replaced. Despite the repair, the failure continued. The contact then took the vehicle to hendrick Chevrolet 100 auto mall drive, cary, nc 27511 where she was informed that the spark plugs needed to be replaced, a repair was not performed. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic where the wires, spark plugs and upper control arm were repaired. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure and was referred to NHTSA. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure mileage was 80,000. Jo.
