“When I hit a bump, speed bump, water, rain, anything of the like, I get the stability control light and ABS light, yesterday 9/13/79 I recieved the 4wheel drive maintence needed as well when I had the trailblazer in auto 4wd, this isn't the first occurance and I believe this is going to end up being a danger to people especially those in the northeast, as a former firefighter I have seen what these failures can do not only to the car but to the people as well, for this I believe there should be a recall, so as to repair these issues. And make the chevy brand reputable again.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Jul 2015
