On the svc list, the traction control will turn off unexpectedly & the check engine light will come on. Recently, when this occured, 01/09/2022, the vehicle would start to jerk & lose power. The vehicle eventually recovered after a few minutes at reduced speed. Speed of vehicle during these occurences was any where from 30 to 45 mph, on good asphalt road, driving at a constant speed. Will return to dealer again on 1/12/2022, car will have approxmitely 25000 on it. Adas list, foward collision warning would not always work. Lane departure warning would sometimes turn off from a few seconds to several minutes. Dealer unable to reproduce problems, no error reading indicating problem, no bulletins from manufacture related to problems. Was told to keep driving the vehicle until something happens again, then bring it in. ( I guess I am not suppose to drive it out of town. ).
I had taken to alpena mi. Buick GMC address 133 johnson st alpena mi. 49707. When the warning come up on the message center on the dash 28/3/24 that said service side detection system and in the side mirrors each side light up all the time and would cost $875. 00 installed at that time had to pay $80. 19 inspect and advise. At that time was unable to afford that cost to have fixed. So with those light on in your mirrors it was a unsafe to drive in daylight hours and worse in night time driving so we had to limit our driving because of this and both my wife and myself are on disability. . It was a distraction and made for unsafe travel for ourselves and for other drivers on the roads. We were able to afford on 02/04/24 and at time was taken back to. The same dealership for repair at that time they installed the side detection kit cost was $812. 66 which was less then the original cost. Question number 2 with this lights on in your mirrors at all times when we would be driving day and night it was a big distraction that you never would know if someone was in the next lane to you on two lane road or on the interstate. So each person was at risk in our vehicle as well as other vehicles. Question number 3 yes that was confirmed by alpena Buick GMC the dealer I had taken the car to back on 28/3/24 . Question number 4 as far as it being a gm dealer and being a gm part I would say yes. Question 5 yes as I told you in q neeuestion 1 it had on the message center in dash service side detection as well as lights on in both mirrors. In my words this is a reason this should be a recall first for people that are driving and can't afford to have fixed this is a accidents waiting to happen with death please do a recall.
