Default 2008 Silverado Stabilitrac Malfunction

Last evening while approaching a stop light the stabilitrack service message came on, followed by the service engine light. As I started to slowly accelerate to leave the intersection, the truck started to vibrate, idling roughly and the truck jerked as the transmission shifted into the higher gear. Thankfully I made it home safely and parked the truck. I started it this morning, the message is still on, the service engine light is still on and the truck idles rough.

I plan to get it to a dealership Monday AM, can anyone give me some background on this problem what the issue might be and how it can suddenly and without warning appear in normal driving conditions.

Thank you.

wetzny,

I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing this issue. Unfortunately, I can’t determine what the issue could be. What did your dealership have to say about this issue?

Thank you,
Elizabeth, Chevrolet Customer Service

Almost sounds like mine! Maybe 2-3 times a year, my Stabilitrack and ABS lights will come on for no apparent reason. Ive taken it to the dealership each time, luckily i still have warranty on it, and all they do is reset the system. Sometimes though, if i shut the truck off and wait a minute to turn it back on, it will reset itself. I think my lift kit may be a factor to it...Oh well, the truck looks good anyways, LOL
