2014 BUICK VERANO Complaints

The car stalls in traffic and the air conditioning will stop working and remote start doesn't work although I have paid for it to be fixed. You can just be driving along the car will stop and not start. It has stalled 6 times in mid traffic putting my life and my children's life in danger we almost was hit by other cars on the highway because the car stopped suddenly. I had the car towed to the Shortline Buick GMC 1301 S Havana St. Aurora, CO. 80012 because of this and they charged me $1000 and only change filters did not fix the car or the remote start. This on or around October 13, 2020.

Car is having transmission issues. Car doesn't know what gear it's in. Very similar issues to the recall that is saying my car isn't affected. Doors are trying to lock and unlocking by themselves. Stalling and shuts off while driving

February 2021 Electronic parking brake activated while vehicle moving without being activated. Vehicle slid to a stop. This is a major safety issue for both the driver and other vehicles on the road as the vehicle is braking on its own and locking the rear wheels. Service parking brake light illuminated. Vehicle was brought to Jim Curley Buick GMC in Lakewood, Nj. Parking brake module was replaced at customer cost. October 2021 Same issue reoccurred. Vehicle was brought again to Jim Curley. Dealer replaced parking brake module again. Issue reoccurred while in dealer possession. Dealer is now replacing all rear calipers, rotors, and pads at customer cost. Vehicle is a major safety risk as this issue causes the vehicle to unexpectedly brake and lock the rear wheels causing the driver to lose control.

ME AND MY FRIEND WAS SITTING IN MY BUICK AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE INDICATOR SAYS PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF AND THE DIC SAYS SERVICE AIRBAG AND THE RED AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING. I AM HAVING SO MANY PROBLEMS SINCE I PURCHASED THIS CAR. ELECTRICAL, LIGHTS, THE AIR SYSTEM.

THE GEAR SHIFT CONSOLE IS COMING APART. UNABLE TO DRIVE. WHEN TRYING TO DRIVE THE CAR I NOTICED THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON/LATCH FELL OFF. WAS UNABLE TO PUT IT BACK, HAD TO TAPE IT BACK ON UNTIL IT GOT TOWED.

SAME ISSUE I SEE MULTIPLE GM OWNERS HAVING. SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS AFTER MULTIPLE REPAIRS. HAVE HAD SENSORS REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAVE HAD TO EVERY YEAR AT LEAST IF NOT EVERY SIX MONTHS. INITIALLY UNDER WARRANTY, BUT NOW NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I UNDERSTAND VEHICLES HAVE ISSUES, BUT THE SAME ISSUES OVER AND OVER AGAIN IS NOT OKAY. I HAVE HAD WHERE IT SHORTS OUT MY ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WHILE DRIVING. I LITERALLY FEARED FOR MY LIFE. EVEN THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGES THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH GM SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM. IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. IT HAS NEVER BEEN LONGER THAN A YEAR BEFORE THE ISSUE COME UP AGAIN. I AM NOT EVEN ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE ISSUES THE SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM CAUSES. EITHER I LOSE ALL ELECTRICAL IN THE CAR OR IT DRAINS THE BATTERY SO I CANNOT START THE CAR. I HONESTLY DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. I ONLY SEE THE OPTION ONCE TO INDICATE WHEN IT HAPPENED, SO I WILL PUT THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE.

NOTICED CAR JERKING AND LOSING POWER WHILE GOIN UPHILL. GOING UPHILL SLOWED DOWN TO ONLY GO ABOUT 25MPH. CAME TO NOT BEING ABLE TO DRIVE FORWARD AT ALL ONLY IN REVERSE. HAD CAR TESTED AT 2 DIFFERENT AUTO PLACES AND WAS GIVEN POSSIBLE CODES OF IT BEING THE TRANSMISSION MODULE. UNFORTUNATELY UP TO NOW HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO AFFORD TO REPAIR. *TR

SIDE DETECTION MODULES KEEP BURNING OUT MAKING MY VEHICLE UNDRIVABLE. LOCATION OF MODULE IS UNDER REAR BUMPER AND IS NOT PROTECTED BY THE ELEMENTS. IN SNOWY WET WEATHER, CAUSES FAILURE. WHEN MODULE IS BURNED OUT, NOTHING WILL WORK ON VEHICLE. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN ONE YEAR. *TR
