P2138 help me please

Ive had this part replaced 2 times in one yr....now again the slow engine light is on....this time I called gmc.....what a night mare.....I've researched this and apparently it's been a problem since day one.....has anyone come up with a solution cuz the 2 chevy dealerships I've been dealing with can't figure it out....
Twice I've been going 75 mph and it slows down. Almost got hit by a truck...scared to drive it...
Thank for any info on a solution...

Welcome to the site.

I see the trouble code you listed, but exactly which part are you saying has been replaced?
If you are refering to the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor, I don't recall that there has been much mention of those on this forum.
