There are 2 owner-reported driver assist & adas complaints for the 2015 Buick Veranoin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Radio/Infotainment would turn itself off and then back on while driving and heat/ac would do the same. Then service side detection system alert would come up on screen. Heat stopped working 90% of the time which wasn't safe during winter when I needed the defrost on. Multiple times had to wipe windshield to get condensation off while driving due to no defrost working. Took it to the shop and replaced left sensor due to corrosion (waited a week for the part) and less than a week later the right sensor (waited a month for the part)stopped working. I was then advised if you replaced one sensor the other with fail if not replaced at the same time. How? Why? Because sensors are $755 a piece that's why. I live alone and am the sole bread winner and this made it extremely difficult to get to work. Add on the $2,500.00 to repair. I wouldn't have bothered to repair it but I needed defrost for safety reasons. Ridiculous that these things are married together in a system that isn't protected at all from the elements and the manufacturer is aware of this. Complete rip off and money grab.
SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON OUT OF NOW WHERE, BEFORE IT CAME ON A FEW DAYS PRIOR THERE WAS NO ONE INFRONT OF ME, I WAS IN THE FREEWAY RAMP GETTING ON AND IT HAD THE AVOID FORWARD CRASH ALARM CHIME AND POP UP ON THE DASH. DRIVING TO WORK AND THE SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON. I'M READING IT'S A VERY VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE BUICK, AND CHEVY PUT OUT AN RECALL ON IT FOR THE CRUZE WITH THE SAME ISSUE.
