I don't know exactly how the traction control works, but is it possible this was a determining factor for the Chevy? Can anyone verify this?

Borrowed off another discussion on this, this is the GM Service Information on what happens if the truck sees traction issues. WORD FOR WORD, This explains the chevy power IMOA.
When drive wheel slip is noted, the electronic brake control module will enter traction control mode.
First, the electronic brake control module requests the engine control module to reduce the amount of torque to the drive wheels via a serial data message. The engine control module reduces torque to the drive wheels and reports the amount of delivered torque.
If the engine torque reduction does not reduce drive wheel slip, the electronic brake control module will actively apply the brakes on the slipping drive wheel. During traction control braking, hydraulic pressure in each drive wheel circuit is controlled to prevent the drive wheels from slipping. The electronic brake control module commands the pump motor and appropriate solenoid valves ON and OFF to apply brake pressure to the slipping wheel.
