Manifold gasket replaced.. Cost me almost $800 and there is only 56,000 miles on it! Fortunate that i was able to only have to drive about 3 miles to dealership!

Usually in the mornings but also other times when i start my truck up. The steering stabilizer and stability act lights come on. Sometimes it turns off and other times it stays on. I see that the 2015 chevy silverado has a recall on this same issue but mine is a 2012. Thank you

The issues happen while the vehicle…
