Starter Solenoid Problems of Buick Verano

The intake cam solenoid value failed without any warning. No light came on to warn me. The car would not accelerate and almost completely stop. I was entering a very usy interstate I - 20 and the car was stalling as other cars were speeding behind me. I could not accelerate at a safe speed. I made it to an exit. The car shut off . I put gas in because I was on a half tank. I thought it was gas related. I tried to leave the gas station the car cut off again. I had the car tolled to the dealership. I was told they didn't know why that happened. This was very dangerous to me with no warning that something was wrong. I could have been injured. Please explain to me what happen. I consider this a major safety issue. The vehicle was in motion on an interstate and stationary trying to go from a gas station.

10/26/15 - car wouldn't start; recv'd jump, replaced battery ($169. 40). 11/6/15 - came out of restaurant, car wouldn't start. Got jump took to dealer. Dealer replaced starter and issue resolved. 11/12-11/car stalled 8-10 more documented times both when backing out of parking spot in reverse and at vehicle speeds varying from 35mph to 67mph on 5 lane interstate during rush hour. Took to dealer and called gm. Replaced two solenoids and some hose, keeping car so tech can drive for 2 days to see if problem can be replicated. I can't determine a cause or pattern and don't get any prior warning, so hoping it does occur in their possession during testing. This vehicle is unreliable and very dangerous. I almost caused a multiple vehicle accident on the interstate and risk injury or death by operating this vehicle. My family is at risk, myself and other motorists. Gm says there is no problem but after seeing the numerous complaints on NHTSA. Gov as well as several other online forums, it is clear that gm is trying to avoid another issue with their vehicles. I have owned gm products since turning 16 and this is completely unacceptable. I have been provided with a dealership loaner and will refuse to take my Verano back as I do not feel safe driving or owning this vehicle. Currently have open complaint with gm but do not have resolution at the time of this complaint.
