| 2003 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | AFTER SEVERAL TRIPS TO THE REPAIR SHOP AT TWO DEARLERSHIPS FOR MY SLIPPING TRANSMISSION ON MY 2003 IMPALA, THE TRANSMISSION FINALLY FAILED AFTER THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED ON THE CAR. *TR |
| 2008 | TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM | I WAS DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED (60 MPH) ON A TWO LANE ROAD. TEMPERATURE WAS BELOW FREEZING, NO ICE OR SNOW. SUDDENLY A BELL SOUNDED, THE "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" BLINKED ON THE DISPLAY, THE TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON, AND THEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY REDUCED POWER, AND "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" DISPLAYED ALTERNATELY WITH THE "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" WARNING. I WAS SCARED, BUT HAD ABOUT 8 MILES TO DRIVE TO MY HOME TOWN. I PULLED TO THE SHOULDER AT ABOUT 40 MPH, TURNED ON MY FLASHERS, AND CONTINUED ON TO MY HOME. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED WITH ICE ON THE ROAD, AS THERE HAD BEEN THAT MORNING ON MY WAY TO WORK, A CRASH WOULD NO DOUBT HAVE OCCURRED AS THESE ROADS ARE VERY SLIPPERY IN WINTER. *TR |
