WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR WOULD COMPLETELY POWER DOWN. AFTER SITTING IN THE EMERGENCY LANE FOR AN HOUR THE CAR WOULD START AND OPERATE AS IF NOTHING WAS WRONG.

I HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE ARE QUITE A FEW BUICK LACROSSE OWNERS THAT HAVE THE CARS THAT ARE EQUIPPED WITH THIS E-ASSIST ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AND ARE BEING TOLD THAT THEIR VIN # ARE NOT INCLUDED. IT SEEMS THAT GM HAS OVERLOOKED A LOT OF CARS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. I HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR A LITTLE OVER 5 YEARS AND MY CAR HAS NOT OPERATED CORRECTLY DUE TO THIS ISSUE.

Hello I have a 2012 Buick lacrosse, when I first bought the vehicle I notice that the service stability track light would come on and immediately after would follow that my motors speed had been reduced. After learning all of this about the vehicle I searched if there was any recalls concerning this matter and in fact found that 2012 Buick lacrosse did have a recall for the service stability track but when I made the call for my vehicle I was told that my car wasn't part of that recall. I'm now dealing with this problem and to the best of my knowledge and research, I found out as well that if the service stability track was to start acting up it could cause my vehicle to come to a stop and could very much so cause a horrific accident. So I'm asking if you could please take it in consideration to make it to where all of the 2012 Buick lacrosse 3.6L should have the recall for the service stability track. Thank you for your time and hope that you make the better judgement call to bring this to light and make it to where all 2012 Buick lacrosse owners are able to get this situation fixed or brought to there attention before a problem or accident. Thanks [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

CAR RUNS FOR 10 - 15 MINUTES THEN JUST TURNS OF , WAIT A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND IT TURNS BACK ON LIKE AS NOTHING HAPPENED THEN IT TURNS OFF AGAIN DOES SAME THING ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON FOR A MINUTE OR TWO THEN TURNS OFF.

MY CAR WOULD NOT START AND THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE BATTERY WAS CHARGED AND I TOOK IT FOR A RIDE THEN TURNED THE CAR OFF. IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN. WAITED UNTIL THE NEXT DAY AND IT STARTED IT AGAIN BUT THERE IS HESITATION IN STARTING. IT SEEMS LIKE THIS IS THE SAME THING THAT IS LISTED AS A RECALL BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED.

MY 2012 BUICK LACROSSES NEWEST PROBLEM IS ONE THAT ACTUALLY SCARES ME. I CAN BE DRIVING ALONG AT 65 MILES AN HOUR AND IT WILL KINDA JERK A COUPLE OF TIMES, THEN USUALLY IT WILL FLASH 'SERVICE THE STABILITY TRACK' THEN I LOSE POWER STEERING AND IT DIES. I'M LUCKY IF I CAN MAKE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.I LIVE IN A RURAL AREA AND THE HIGHWAYS AROUND HERE ARE TWO LANE WITH MINIMUM SHOULDERS. SO WHEN THE CAR DOES THIS IT IS DANGEROUS. IT HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES NOW. IT WILL RESTART AFTER ABOUT 15-30 MINUTES AND DRIVE JUST FINE. I'VE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC AND NOTHING SHOWS UP ON THE COMPUTER, EVERYTHING LOOKS GOOD. BUT ITS NOT, THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST OF THE PROBLEMS I'VE EXPERIENCED WITH THIS CAR AND THERE HAVE BEEN QUITE A FEW.

STABILITY TRACKING LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY CAUSES TRANSMISSION TO KICK AND JURK COMES TO A STOP IN TRAFFIC . ELECTRONIC BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON , TELLING TO HAVE SERVICED. TOLD DEALER ABOUT PROBLEM .TOLD THEY COULDN'T FIND PROBLEM RESET COMPUTER. DEALER CODE WAS. PROGRAMED IN AND CONTINUES TO ACT UP OVER AND OVER. WAS TOLD IT WAS A SHORT PROBLEM. TOLD ME THEY RESOLVED THE PROBLEM WITH A USED PUMP IN TRANSMISSION! SORRY TO SAY DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM.

IN 3500 MILES MY CAR CONSUMED 4 QTS OF OIL. IN RETURNED THAT CAUSED STALLING VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHILE IN TRAFFIC ON A HIGHWAY AND ENGINE DAMAGE. GM KNOWS THAT IT'S A PROBLEM BUT WILL ONLY FIX THE PROBLEM IF YOU ARE UNDER WARRANTY.

AC SYSTEM WENT OUT, COMPRESSOR AND CLUTCH STOPPED WORKING.

JUST OVER 70,000 MILES ON THE CAR. ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR WAS RUNNING ROUGH AND STALLING AT IDLE. ENGINE LIGHT CODE INDICATED A CAM SHAFT MISALIGNMENT. DEALER TORE ENGINE APART TO FIND THE PROBLEM AND REPORTED THAT A FEW OF THE VALVES WERE EITHER BENT OR HAD BROKEN OFF. REPAIR WOULD BE A COMPLETE ENGINE REBUILD/REPLACEMENT.

VEHICLE STALLS AND IS STOPPING AFTER THE STABILITRAK LIGHT COMES ON ON THE FREE WAY AND STREETS. HAVE TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP SEVERAL OF TIMES TO BE FIXED BUT THE PROBLEM COMES RIGHT BACK WITHIN DAYS. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN PERSISTENT SINCE 11/2018 AND STILL HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO BE FIXED AS IF 5/2019.

AFTER PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN, THE PEDAL DOES NOT RETURN TO THE HOME POSITION. IT REMAINS DEPRESSED AND THE BRAKES WILL ONLY DISENGAGE AFTER I MANUALLY LIFT THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS OCCURS WHEN THE WEATHER IS WARM OUT AND OCCURS IN ALL STAGES OF DRIVING WHEN THIS HAPPENS (STATIONARY, IN MOTION, ETC).

TAKATA RECALL. AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN ON ITS OWN IN THE MIDST OF 70 MPH TRAFFIC AND AS I PUSHED ON BRAKES MY VEHICLE JERKED. WHEN I TRIED TO SPEED BACK UP MY CAR SLOWLY ACCELERATED. I WAS TERRIFIED WHEN IT SLOWED DOWN BECAUSE THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME. MY CAR IS NOW GIVE ME A WARNING SIGN 'STABILIZE TRACK ASSIST' BUT I HAD MY BREAKS CHECK AND THEY WERE FINE. NOW I START TO SMELL A BURNING SMELL SOMETIMES WHEN I'M DRIVING

JUST RECENTLY GOT MY CAR FULLY SERVICE AND WITHIN 2 WEEKS LATER I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE AND IT STARTED DECELERATING AND SHIFTING ABNORMAL. ALL MY FLUIDS WAS VISIBLE IN MY CAR AND ITS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY, WONT LET ME CATCH SPEED PAST 33MPH, WONT GO IN REVERSE AND ALSO SOMETIMES IT STALL TO GO FORWARD. I BELIEVE THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE ON RECALL DUE TO SAFETY DRIVING ISSUES. I HAVE 2 FAMILY MEMBERS THAT OWN THE SAME KIND OF VEHICLE LIKE ME AND THEY ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THEY CAR. GOT IT TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD THAT MY TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED REPAIR OR GET A NEW ONE. HAVENT HEARD ANYTHING BACK TO WHY SO MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES SO FIGURE I WOULD GIVE THIS A SHOT SO THESE VEHICLES CAN GET INSPECTED. DURING THE TIME OF MY ISSUES, MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A BUSY STREET AND IT SEEM LIKE AS I MAKE A TURN IT WOULDNT GET NO BETTER. WONT LET ME CATCH SPEED ONCE IT DECELERATE AND WONT REVERSE AT ALL(I CAN PUT IT IN REVERSE GEAR BUT ITS NOT BACKING UP AT ALL).

THE CAR STOPS RUNNING IT SHUTS OFF. WHILE DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT.

DRIVING MY CAR WAS JUST GREAT ON MY 81ST DAY OF OWNERSHIP IT ALL CHANGED I WAS LEAVING A RED LIGHT IN VICKSBURG OFF THE INTERSTATE ONTO WARRENTON RD I EXPERIENCED LOSS OF ALL POWER TO EVERYTHING IN THE VEHICLE AND IF ANYONE IS FAMILIAR WITH THAT ROAD THE ARE HARDLY ANY ROOM TO PULL OVER SO BAD THAT IF I HAD A PASSENGER HEY WOULD HAVE TO CLIMB OVER TO THE DRIVER SIDE TO GET OUT OR ELSE SLIDE RIGHT INTO THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER, TALK ABOUT BAD TIMING WITH THE EXCEPTION FOR THE RADIO THE VEHICLE WOULD ONLY CLICK ONCE NO ABNORMAL SMELLS SMOKE OR ANYTHING THAT WOULD CAUSE ME TO THINK OF ANY ENGINE DAMAGE. AFTER HOURS OF WAITING THE TOW TRUCK CAME CHECKED THE CAR TRIED TO BOOST IT AND COULDN'T GET A CHARGE AFTER GETTING IT HOME I TOOK THE BATTERY TO THE ADVANCE AUTO PARTS TO CHARGE IT AND THEY SAID IT WAS A DEAD CELL SO J BROUGHT ANOTHER BATTERY GOT IT HOME JUST FOR IT TO CLICK STILL NO CRANK, IT'S PUSH TO START SO IT WAS JUST ONE SINGLE CLICK AND THE ENGINE LIGHT IS THE ONLY LIGHT ON THE DASH THAT WOULD ILLUMINATE. SO I CALLED ONSTAR THEY TOLD ME IT NEEDED TO BE TAKEN TO A DEALER IMMEDIATELY DUE TO A CHARGING ISSUE AFTER TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT'S THE MOTOR LOCKED UP WHICH IS OBSERD DUE TO THE FACT THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF IT DOING ANYTHING ABNORMAL BEFORE IT SHUT DOWN AND WITH IT BEING NEW I WAS TOLD IT WOULD SHUT DOWN BEFORE IT RAN HOT AND MESS UP THE ENGINE AND ALSO MAKES ME WONDER WHY IT WOULD EVEN BE CONSIDERED BECAUSE OF THE FACT OF THE ENGINE PROTECTION MECHANISM. NOW THE VEHICLE IS AT THE DEALERSHIP JUST SITTING THERE AND I HAVE NO WAY TO WORK AND STILL HAVE TO PAY CAR NOTE AND INSURANCE ON A VEHICLE I DON'T EVEN HAVE ACCESS TO ANYMORE. THE DEALERSHIP IS DIXON AUTO AND BODY SALES AND I'M STUCK WAITING WITH NOTHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO AS FAR AS A RIDE.

HI THERE COMING HOME THE OTHER DAY ON HIGHWAY LOST EVERYTHING , LUCKILY I WAS IN THE RIGHT LANE NO STEERING VERY HARD TO STOP ! HAD TO GET IT TOWED ! SERPENTINE BELT OFF ! REPLACE BELT THREE TIMES BELT KEEPS COMING OFF ! NEED HELP !

AFFECTING ALL 2.4L GM MOTORS- THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WILL CRACK JUST BEFORE THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND LEAK DEADLY EXHAUST FUMES INTO THE CABIN. YOU MAY EXPERIENCE A SMELL AT FIRST BUT THEN IT GOES AWAY AND SYMPTOMS WILL TYPICALLY INCLUDE HEADACHE, NAUSEA AND VOMITING. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATE AS CARBON MONOXIDE IS ODORLESS AND COLORLESS AND DEADLY. THIS HAS BEEN SEEN ON MULTIPLE VEHICLES A WEEK IN THE SHOP.

WHEN DRIVING RADIO AND DASH LIGHTS GO OFF FOR A SECOND AND COME BACK ON THIS OCCURS 5 AND 10 MINUTES APART.
