1 Anti-theft Controller problem of the 2014 Buick Regal

Failure Date: 10/19/2019

I was backing my car into my driveway and then I shut off engine, radio still playing, then all of a sudden lights started dimming and the anti theft went into action. Whole car shut down, not even remotes would work. Got the hood opened and discovered a melting wire connected to the negative side. Thank god I was home when it happened. Could this have caught fire inside my garage? my car is currently at turner Toyota in montrose colorado. Was inquiring if this is a malfunction with wiring harness. So far its costing us 800. 00 dollars in repair, which I dont have my car back as of today. I would like this matter closely looked at for a safety recall due to the matter things could have been alot worse.

3 Anti-theft Controller problem of the 2000 Buick Regal

Failure Date: 10/01/2013

On or around October 2013, I started experiencing difficulty in turn ignition switch off and removing key. Now its worsen where I spend anywhere 5 mins. To 15 min trying to remove the key. Only way I can do that is by turning the steering wheel or moving the gear selector back an forth till it decides it release the key. I thought it might have been the anti-theft in column that was locking up. I'm scheduled to have a new ignition installed after replacing the old key with a new key. I like to make sure this is covered before I sink anymore money into it. I depend on the car to make to doctor appointments and suck I often am late for because I"m in the parking lot playing spin the wheel. The other factor is steering wheel get extremely hot when driving at times. Where I have to put on gloves to drive. I replaced all the light bulbs in the socket last year all but the right front turn signal works. They tell me it possibly could be the module. Again, I don't have the funds to do extreme car repairs. Or reimburse me for the costs which is the right thing to do.
