My wife finally insisted that the service technician ride with her and they quickly replicated the issue. He said it was a problem with the drivetrain. Well, she just got back from the dealership and is furious with them. Basically, they told her that the problem is that we drive it in "Auto" all the time and that we should always drive in the 2WD setting unless it's winter. We couldn't find anywhere in the Owner's Manual where GMC gives that direction. Anyway, they told her that there's nothing that they could do to fix the problem and that we'll just experience that 'slip' whenever we drive in Auto. I'm going to call GMC when I get home from work. Ugh!
correct these problems. I will look at getting a new battery or a second battery. Any other suggestion will be appreciated.

Second answer, go to gmc.com and get an account. You can download the owners manual from that site.
Any help to troubleshoot this problem would be appreciated.

Also, I have always had a squeaking in my front breaks. I have changed the front pads with top of the line ceramic brakes from NAPA and I also put new rotors on the front as well. I still have the squeaking, but I was abe to get rid of the shimmy from the old rotors being warped. I was told that I may want to get shims that fit between the pad and the caliper? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance, Joe

As far as minimize the brake squeak/squeal, having shims installed (correctly) between brake pads and caliper will most definitely help. Before you shop for shims for your particular vehicle, you may want to check with your Ceramic pad manufacturer for the proper shims (and adhesive), since not all shims are made of quality steel...
