My Grand Prix would just randomly stall for a few seconds and the Trac Control would come on. This was not easy to figure out. But after looking on the internet, I found the fix. It is the Crank Position Sensor. It costs about 30 dollars and I paid a shop to put it in for a hundred dollars and that fixed the problem. If you have your car run on a diagnostic system, it wont find the problem and you will waste your money. Just get the part and have a shop install it.
