Well, i was driving today home and the last turn home my car basically brakes by itself...then the stabilitrak service indicator comes up on my dash and my engine's power becomes restricted.. i got it home and waited awhile and then started it back up and the stabilitrak service comes up again and the check engine light comes on.

I took the car in yesterday to get something with my rim fixed. just a cosmetic little scratch but i do kno they took the whole rim off and i think they messed up the alignment and its messing other stuff up... i kno this seems weird but has anyone had this issue or knows any information thanks in advance guys :(

Did you press the OnStar button and see if they can run a diagnostic; it might turn something up. Taking off a wheel should not affect the alignment. What the heck did they touch?

i have no idea what they touched but seems like something is wrong with the steering from what ive been trying to read about the stabilitrak problems but the reducing engine power has more of my attention as that oculd mean a much more serious problem after reading the manual. it didnt reduce the engine power the second time i turned it on but the check engine light is still on which is not pleasing at all.
