hi ho, hi ho...off to the dealer we go ............again! now the tractiion control light comes on intermittently and abs tries to engage for no reason....web blogs say either abs harness (gm has tech bulletin) Took GM 3 years to figure out it was 1.5 ft too long and frays on the tie rods or the wheel speed sensor. Since I've had both hubs replaced this year you'd think someone should have noticed. I only hope when my brakes fail a GM exec is crossing in front of my car

As with all the other lucky owners of the famous ABS system failures from GM I am on my second set of front hub bearings and can only wonder what dumbass engineer as GM designed this setup. Well, on the bright side, I think I've confirmed it's not the actual hub bearings at all!! It's the generic wiring setup that GM used to pigtail from the firewall down to each axle. Overall, this is an exceptionally nice riding car, the interior layout is nice, but when GM outsourced their electrical components supplier, well, let's just say the walk and chew gum theory came into play.
