Received a stabilitrck error and lost power steering and traction control while driving. This appears to be a common and dangerous issue with this model vehicle.

The SUV was stalled after getting in D to drove forward and all of a sudden it’s started with a big jerk and moved forward It went driving ok for them rest of the day but it kept repeating the incident n and off until June 15 when it was stalled on a traffic light I was able to put the emergency flashers and drive it in reverse to a near by parking lot

The car very suddenly went into a reduced engine power mode, with check engine light and was immediately parked. Figuring I could turn the car off and turn it back on, however it sputtered turning off and shook violently before I was able to turn it off. It would then not turn back over, so I left it off and had a tow truck drive it to a GMC mechanic. The GMC mechanic was unable to diagnose an issue after days. I then had it towed to another local mechanic who stated the parts were "junk" and the engine needed to be replaced. Engine codes were related to the camshaft sensor and brake booster. It is my understanding the vacuum pump broke off into pieces, went into and destroyed my engine.

[XXX] Steering wheel started bumping then heard noise from passenger side front. Started losing control of vehicle. Made it to the shoulder. Inspected tire, tire failure tread had separated from cord. Changed to spare tire which was bald. However tread from failed tire had bent metal wheel well and was rubbing on spare. Made it to Mr Tire. Had wheel well bent back and new tire installed. We could have been severely injured, killed or crashed into another vehicle, hurting or killing them. My daughter and grandson were in vehicle with me. No ins claim filed. No police report. Mr Tire did not inspect failed tire as I had changed to the spare I still have the failed tire.

If someone needs to inspect the tire please let me know so I don't return it. No warning. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

During standard braking operations the vehicle (not a hard emergency situation) on dry ground the vehicle seems to activate the abs system or something similar which makes the braking effort non standard and increases stopping distance. The issue has occurred occasionally for over a year but is becoming more frequent. It has occurred at both highway speeds of 55 mph and almost stopped during parking activities of 2mph.
