Any advise would be awesome! I have a "06 Envoy Denali and this morning on my message center it read 'stability track active". Granted, it was wet outside but nothing really bad. The truck out of first gear felt like a hard shift. Nothing happen on the rest of the gears, only out of first. After re-starting my truck, the message was gone, and my problem went away. Yes, it was still wet outside. Help! I'm thinking of taking this back to the dealer to run a diagnostic, but I also want to know if anyone has had any similiar problem????:confused:

This bulletin provides information on two different conditions.

Condition #1
Some customers may comment on a Service StabiliTrak® indicator light along with a Service StabiliTrak® message displayed in the DIC. Upon investigation, the technician may find DTC C0196 set in history.

Condition #2
Some customers may comment on a blinking StabiliTrak® indicator light along with a StabiliTrak Active message displayed in the DIC during normal driving conditions. No DTCs will be found with this concern.

Cause
This condition may be caused by a software anomaly within the electronic brake control module (EBCM) that allowed the yaw offset to be falsely learned.

Correction
Do This
Don't Do This

Reprogram the EBCM.
Do not replace the yaw sensor or EBCM for this condition.


Important: From the controller list, select "VSES Vehicle Stability Enhancement System Control Module."

If routine diagnosis using SI does not reveal any obvious cause, reprogram the EBCM using SPS with the latest software available on TIS2WEB. Refer to the Service Programming System (SPS) procedures in SI. As always, make sure your Tech 2® is updated with the latest software version.

This happened to me a few weeks ago and a few days ago for my wife. Glad to see that it can be fixed, I will be calling them in the next few days.
