TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 BUICK ENCLAVE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN NEUTRAL, IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AT A HIGH SPEED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECAME STUCK IN POSITION. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO APPLY THE BRAKES; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP. THE CONTACT APPLIED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND THE PASSENGER TURNED OFF THE IGNITION. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME. WHILE DRIVING TO LUTHER BROOKDALE CHEVROLET (LOCATED AT 6701 BROOKLYN BLVD, BROOKLYN CENTER, MN 55429, 612-326-3850), THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN.

INTERMITTENT DIFFERENT LEVELS IN BREAK PEDAL TRAVEL. AT TIMES MY CAR STOPS NORMALLY WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS FIRST PRESSED (ABOUT 2 INCHES). OTHER TIMES THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL IS MUCH GREATER (ABOUT 4 INCHES OR MORE), AND THE PEDAL HAS A SPONGY FEEL. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR BACK TO BUICK NUMEROUS TIMES, AND THEY STATE THEY CAN NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, WHERE I AM NEVER SURE I WILL BE ABLE TO STOP THE CAR IN TIME TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT.

WHILE SITTING AT A STOP AND THE VEHICLE IN THE PARK POSITION, THE LOCKS LOCKED, UNLOCKED, AND RELOCATED. AFTER INITIALLY FEELING THIS COULD BE A ONE TIME OCCURRENCE, IT HAPPENED ONCE AGAIN AND EXTENDED. THE SECOND OCCURRENCE HAPPENED ABOUT 7-9 TIMES BETWEEN LOCK AND UNLOCK. DURING THE SECOND OCCURRENCE, I NOTICED THE GEAR SHIFT DISPLAY WAS FLASHING IN AND OUT OF PARK. MY CONCERN IS THIS MAY BE MORE OF A DISCONNECT IN THE GEAR SYSTEM THAT MAY MALFUNCTION WHEN DRIVING. WHILE THIS HAPPENED PARKED, WE HAD BEEN DRIVING AND CAME TO THE PARK POSITION WHILE SITTING IN A DRIVE THRU.

MY DAUGHTER ENDED UP GETTING THE SEAT BELT TWISTED AROUND HER WAIST WHEN SHE WAS TRYING TO GET OUT. THE SEATBELT WAS LOCKED TIGHTLY AROUND HER WAIST AND SHE COULD NOT GET OUT. I TRIED TURNING OFF THE CAR, UNLOCKING THE CAR, AND PULLING THE SEAT RELEASE BUT THE SEATBELT WOULD NOT UNLOCK. WE CALLED THE LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT AND THE SEATBELT HAD TO BE CUT OFF.

SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING MY 2015 BUICK ENCLAVE THE POWER STEERING PUMP HAD TO BE REPLACED. ABOUT 15K MILES LATER, THE POWER STEERING HOSE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE RESEARCHING INTO THIS AND IT LOOKS LIKE THIS SYSTEM HAS BEEN FAULTY FOR NUMEROUS VEHICLES OF THIS MODEL. THE PERSON AT THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THIS CAN CAUSE A FIRE IF LEFT UNTREATED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO.

WHEN DRIVING ON EXPRESSWAY CAR DROPS TO LIMP MODE I HAVE RETURNED TO SEVERAL DEALERS NO CODES CAN BE FOUND. NOTIFIED GM OFFICE ABOUT PROBLEM. ONLY SOLUTION IS TO GIVE ME A 2000 DOLLAR CERTIFICATE TO BUY A NEW GM PRODUCT. SAFETY PROBLEM WHEN YOU HAVE A 70 YEAR OLD DRIVING 70 MPH IN HIGH SPEED LANE AND IT DROPS TO LIMP MODE.CONTACTED GM CENTRAL OFFICE CASE [XXX] TALKED TO DANIELLE AT 855-880-1400 EXTENSION 5914268.. I ALSO HAVE SEVERAL PHOTO'S OF THE DASH BOARD WARNINGS ABOUT TRACTION CONTROL AND STABLIZER I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SEND DOCUMENTS ON THE COMPUTER . IT HAS HAPPEN MORE THA 10 TIMES, I STOPPED WASTING MY TIME FOR SOMETHING THEY CAN.T FIND. I BELIEVE IT'S A PROBLEM WITH COMPUTER, BUT THEY TELL ME THE COMPUTER WOULD LET THEM KNOW IF ITS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT

THE SEAT BELT CABLE COMPLETELY SHARED OFF WHERE IT ATTACHES TO FLOOR. CAME APART WHEN TRYING TO USE

THE PASSENGER 'SERVICE AIRBAG' LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON. A DEALER HAS LOOKED AT IT TWICE NOW WITHOUT A SUCCESSFUL REPAIR. THE MOST RECENT WAS ON 5/24. SUPPOSEDLY A POOR CONNECTION AT A SEAT CONNECTOR WAS FOUND, CODE B0021, AND WIRES WERE CUT AND SPLICED TOGETHER. 2 DAYS LATER THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON JUST LIKE LAST TIME. OUR CONCERN IS THAT IF WE WERE TO BE IN AN ACCIDENT WOULD THE AIRBAG DEPLOY?

THE REAR DOOR TO MY VEHICLE WILL NOT STAY CLOSED SO I HAVE TO TURN OFF THE AUTO DOOR OPENER. I HAVE TO OPEN IT BY HAND AND NOT BY THE ELECTRIC KEY OPENER. I WAS ON A TRIP TO FLORIDA AND GOING 70 MILES PER HOUR AND THE BACK CAME OPEN. I TOOK IT TO COLONIAL AUTO WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD BE BETWEEN 150.00 - 175.00 TO FIX IT BECAUSE HE SAID THAT HE THOUGHT THE LACK MAY BE OUT OF LINE THAT HE HAD SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. IF THIS PROBLEM IS REPORTED TO BUICK THAN THEY NEED TO RECALL THEM TO BE CHECKED OR FIXED. I DON'T THINK I WILL EVER BUY ANOTHER BUICK AND WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER AUTO FROM THIS DEALER. I WENT OUT TO GET IN MY CAR FROM WORK AND THE BACK WAS OPENED. WHAT A JOKE THIS CAR HAS BECOME.
