Default 07 Silverado Stabilitrac problems

I have a new 07 Silverado 1500 with a 4" Trail Master lift from the dealer. I am having problems; when I turn my stabilitrac comes on and locks up my front drivers side tire. It locks up more turning right but will lock up going left and comes on intermitently at different speeds and turning radius'. It acts like the two front tires are traveling at different speeds and activates the stabilitrac system (if I turn off the stabilitrac button, everything is fine). I was wondering if anyone has seen this or has some advice. My thoughts are that the lift is not set up right and either the steering column is not centered or the tie-rods need to be adjusted.

In 2010 I bought a 2007 Silverado with 108,000 miles. The engine was replaced at 101,000 miles. At 168,000 miles the check stabiltrax light would come on and the transmission would shift very hard from low to second. It was determined I needed to have a head rebuilt even though all tests were "well within limitations". There was a slight misfire on one cylinder. It disappeared at 1500 rpm's. The hard shift would not go away unless I had the head rebuilt. $2901.76 later, no check stabiltrax light or hard shift. There was never anything wrong with the stabiltrax or transmission. My pickup was programmed to malfunction to scare me into a GM garage for an unnecessary repair. I have complained to GM and the Better Business Bureau with no results. I will now ask the U S Attorney General , my state Attorney General, my US Senators and Representatives to look into this deceptive, revenue generating practice. If others feel as I do and complain in mass, this wrong can be righted.
