start date: 2011-12-27
description: ON THE MORNING OF DECEMBER 27, 2011 THE STABILITY TRAC SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON INDICATING THAT IT HAD FAILED. THE CAR DID NOT REACT PROPERLY AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS UNCONTROLLABLE LEADING TO AN ACCIDENT. THE CAR DID A 360 AND HIT A GUARD RAIL. THE STABILITRAC WAS REPAIRED JUST A MONTH PRIOR AT A CADILLAC DEALERSHIP, BUT STILL OPERATED INCORRECTLY. THIS INCIDENT PUT MY LIFE AT DANGER AND HAS CAUSED ME TO BELIEVE THAT THE STABILITRAC SYSTEM WAS NOT FIXED PROPERLY AT ALL. A CERTIFIED MECHANIC HAS TAKEN A LOOK AT THE CAR AND CONFIRMED THAT THE STABILITRAC SYSTEM WAS DYSFUNCTIONAL. AT THIS POINT, I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THE CAR, EVEN AFTER IT'S REPAIRED. MY BUSINESS CONSISTS OF ME DRIVING FREQUENTLY AND I FEAR THAT IF I CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT THE RESULTS COULD BE WORSE IF THE SYSTEM FAILS AGAIN. *TR
