WHILE DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY GOING AT 65 MPH. THE LIGHT ON THE DASH CAME ON AND IT SAID, SERVICE AIRBAGS. WHEN I GOT HOME AND I TURNED OFF MY CAR THE LIGHT WENT OFF AND I THOUGHT THAT IT COULD OF BEEN A GLITCH IN THE CAR. TWO DAYS LATER THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND HAS BEEN ON EVER SINCE. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER TRYING TO FIND ANSWERS BUT THEY SAY THERE IS NO RECALL FOR MY CAR. BUT YET I SEE SO MANY ISSUES WITH HE AIRBAGS ON BUICK VERANOS.

I WAS AT A STOP SIGN AND WHEN IT WAS MY TURN TO GO I STARTED TO DRIVE AND REALIZED MY CAR WAS NOT ACCELERATING, I HAD THE GAS PEDDLE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AS A TRACTOR TRAILER WAS FASTLY APPROACHING MY REAR BUMPER, LUCKLY I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO MEDIAN. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A SWITCH THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. MY ENTIRE DASHBOARD LIGHTS AND RADIO WENT OUT, WHICH DEALERSHIP HAD TO REPLACE TWICE. MY CAR SHUT OFF WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT, IT WAS RAINING AND DEFROST WAS NOT WORKING, TOOK TO DEALERSHIP WHICH THEY STATED IT WAS MY BATTERY, PAID $200 FOR A NEW BATTERY. MY CAR JERKS AND STALLS WHEN I AM GOING FROM A COMPLETE STOP AND BEGIN TO PICK UP SPEED. I WAS BACKING OUT A PARKING SPOT TODAY AND MY CAR SHUT OFF AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, I RESTARTED MY CAR WHICH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON AND THE STALLING AND JERKING CONTINUES. THESE ISSUES CAN CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT AND IF SEVERE ENOUGHT CAN BE LIFE THREATENING. IF I AM REQUIRED TO HOLD UP MY END OF THE BARGAIN BY PAYING MY CAR NOTE THE MANUFACTURERS NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR END OF THE BARGAIN WHICH IS PROVIDING THEIR BUYERS WITH A SECURE AND RELIABLE VEHICLES FOR FAMILIES.

HUSBAND WAS DRIVING CAR HOME ON A 6 HOUR ROAD TRIP. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. EVERYTIME HE WOULD SLOW DOWN TO A STOP OR NEAR STOP THE CAR WOULD SHUT OFF. ENGINE SOUNDS LIKE IT IS MISSING.

READING OTHER COMPLAINTS IT LOOKS LIKE WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES WHO HAD THIS ISSUE.
