While at low speed and at stops while turning the wheel the entire dash and engine cut off and come back on. The steering also locks up to a point of not turning either way. All incidents happened on a very smooth flat road. This put my life in danger on one occasion while turning on a highway where my entire truck shut off mid turn.I have video of this occurring on my phone if you would like to reach out to me for that. I believe this to be a stabiltrac issue, one of GMC's traction control branding things. I have seen this issue all over google while searching it and it needs to be recalled! I would like to know if this will happen.

2015 GMC Sierra has a delay throttle response. Does it at all speeds and from take off. Took to dealer and service advisor pulled truck in shop. Got out and said it does have a delay. The ran VIN number through GMC data base and told me. Manufacture said it was a normal thing. It's not normal and never had a vehicle with a throttle delay.

Also transmission down shifted extremely hard in hills of North ga. To the point of engine RPM 4500. Contacted GMC complaint dept. But as of 6/2/15 no help.
