Service Brakes problem #1

My breaks keep injecting off my 2013 Buick Lacrosse while driving, ruining my break calipers. Have gotten fixed 3 times. Car is currently not able to drive.

Service Brakes problem #2

The contact owns a 2013 Buick Lacrosse. The contact stated while driving 60 mph, the brake pedal was depressed, and she heard an abnormal sound coming from the vehicle. The check engine warning light illuminated. The contact continued to drive to her destination. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the generator control module had failed and needed to be replaced. The contact stated that the failure had been reoccurring while driving. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 150,000.

Service Brakes problem #3

Constantly been having engine problems. Engine light coming on and off. I was driving it down a highway, coming to a stop due to a red light when the whole front of my car begin to sputter and gave out. It read "stabiltrak" but when taken to the shop it only read a code for the carbon filter. Which, was changed and did fixed the problem for the time being. However, its doing the same thing again. . Which is very dissapointing because its a very well kept up with car, never goes without its necessities. . And at this point I'm thinking it could be my braking system due to this problem weakening my brakes but I don't see why because those were changed about 6 months ago. Maybe, even an electrical problem with my traction control.

Service Brakes problem #4

When in a coasting mode(no accelerator use) car will apply braking all on its own and will not release braking till car comes to a full stop. No objects or cars are anywhere in front of the car when this happens. Has happened twice while going around medium radius curves in the road. Very dangerous to us and the other cars behind us because we get no indication this is going to happen. This has happened a couple of times. The last time is indicated below.
