SERVICE VEHICLE SOON: If this message appears
on the DIC, there may be an electrical or another system
problem with your vehicle. Have your vehicle checked
by your dealer if this message keeps appearing.

Straight from the manual. Mine has come on intermittently for about 2 years now.

There are a number of DTCodes that will cause the SVS / SES message. Check out the codes on the DTC and post them here. Someone will be able to help out.

Electrical problem that probably isn't that big of a deal. It could be anything from a broken stearing sensor (usually done by clowns at at non-GM alignment shop) to a BCM going bad. Check you codes and someone will hook you up.

Check the codes through the DIC! IF the code is suffiexed with 'H', the condition is no longer present, if it is suffixed with 'C' or 'HC', then the condition is present.
