While driving on an interstate my sister's '07 Chevy Equinox will flutter, the Stabilitrak light come on, then the engine immediately loses power and won't go above 35. She's had to pull off into the median, shut the car off and start driving again and she has no control over it. The roads have been bad, but not this bad. Suggestions? Been in shop three times
The PCM (computer) is limiting the throttle because something is wrong with your suspension , steering or braking system. Have you had brakes worked on, changed tire sizes etc? The stabilitrack system gets feedback from sensors in each wheel> Such as speed, rotation angle etc and makes adjustments to stabilize the vehicle. If the sensors are not working properly or the braking is not balanced, the computer will throttle down the vehicle to prevent what it thinks is the beginning of a skid.

YOu need to take it to a shop immediately the stabilitrax and the abs indicators has to do with your car being stabilized and the abs has something to do with your brakes. Hope this helps!?
Please rate solution - Thanks.

you will have to drive it to the dealer, if it leaves you stranded call a tow truck. all 2007 and up gm cars and trucks should have a 5 year 100k warranty so you should be covered as long as the check engine lamp is not flashing it is not a serious issue if it acts up, try pulling over shutting it off and restarting to see if it resets

If you get an ABS (anti lock brake system) light on as well, you probably have a bad front wheel bearing (the ABS wheel speed sensor is built-in). Check the harnesses going to the sensors first, they may be damaged from turning. If no ABS light accompanying the Stabilitrak message, then you will need to get it scanned for a diagnostic code to further evaluate.
