GM IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM WITH SUVS!!!!!!! WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH WITH OUR GRANDKIDS AND ALL POWER WAS LOST. NO POWER STEERING, NO BRAKES. RADIO AND ELECTRIC WINDOWS STILL WORKED AFTER STOPPING (LUCKILY SAFELY). SERVICE REPAIR REPORTED THAT IGNITION SWITCH CIRCUIT THAT CONTROLS THE ENGINE SHORTED OUT TURNING OFF ENGINE AT 45 MPH. THIS IS THE 5TH IGNITION SWITCH ON THIS VEHICLE. GM HAS A LARGER IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM THAN THEY ARE ACKNOWLEDGING. LUCKILY WE JUST GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY GOING 70 MPH OR WE WOULD HAVE CRASHED. PLEASE RESEARCH THIS CLASS OF VEHICLE (SUVS/TRUCKS) AS I BELIEVE GM HAS A SIMILAR PROBLEM AS THE COBALTS!!!!!!! *TR

DRIVING AROUND A CORNER, WHEELS LOCKED UP, SERVICE STABILITRACK LIGHT WENT ON, STEERING WHEEL UNRESPONSIVE TO TURNING. WENT TO A SHOPPING CENTER AND WAS UNABLE TO GET OUT OF PARKING SPACE AS WHEELS LOCKED UP AND VEHICLE WOULDN'T TURN. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. THE SERVICE STABILITRACK LIGHT ON DASH CAN GO ON AT ANYTIME WHILE DRIVING. THIS CAN BE DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO TURN ON A BUSY STREET AND NOTHING HAPPENS. IT FEELS LIKE THE CAR IS NOT RESPONSIVE TO THE STEERING WHEEL, BRAKES AND WHEELS. *TR
