Q: VSA light. Code 66-01 came up
VSA light. Code 66-01 came up
My car has 6500 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
The VSA indicator light comes on when something in your Vehicle Stability Assist System is not working properly. This is a system in your car that helps to control the way the vehicle maneuvers when cornering or in otherwise unstable conditions. Your vehicle has a series of sensors that track the stability of the car monitoring this which can also fail causing this light to come on in some cases intermittently without cause. I would recommend having a professional from YourMechanic come to your lcoation to diagnose and inspect your vehicle.

This sounds like the transmission is slipping. I recommend having a transmission mechanic diagnose the slipping by checking transmission pressures, checking for trouble codes (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/what-is-the-on-board-diagnostics-obd-system), or checking for any solenoids that are not letting it shift.

Gas pump stops every few seconds while re-fueling. It takes a very long time to fill up the tank.
