While driving, "air bag, security, and service vehicle soon" sensor lights come on and stay on - air conditioner quits working, windows won't roll down, and doors don't unlock when car is stopped and put in "park". . . Heads-up display shows "check gauges" warning. . . Gauges readings - battery state????, coolant temp ????, oil pressure ????, oil life index ????. . . Light showing what gear vehicle is in goes out. I've had vehicle to dealer 8 times in past yr. And issued 2 complaints with Buick customer service with no resolution. Checked by 2 dealers - problem going on for over 3 yrs. And getting worse. Dealer has contacted tech support at Buick but they cannot resolve the problem either.
The side terminal came off the battery while vehicle was parked. The driver was concerned that terminal would come off while driving.
