Intermittently my electronic panel will shut down and no electronic functions will operate. Typically they will return power in about an hour or less. There has been a time in the last 15 days that the power did not return and I had to have the car towed to the dealership. Turns out that resulted in a fuse replacement for $125. The emergency flashers will randomly come on and the dealer would not cover it until I called gm headquarters and they got the dealer to cover it under a notice issued for the vehicles of my type but not my VIN number. My brakes squeak frequently but the dealer tells me that is normal but will not tell me if the recall had been fixed for that item. My brake lights and flashers will come on when I am driving, starting the car or park the care and leave it for some time. This happens like the electrical system shutdown, without any warning, in all seasons, during all times of the day or night, after extended or short duration trips. There is noting I have found to help me predict the occurrences and lately I don't drive it for fear of being stranded unless I am alone. Since the dealer can not duplicate the issue they are not willing to repair it and want me to pay $600 to have the body control module replaced in hopes that will clear up the problems.

After backing out of my garage, my xt5 after 3 previous brake stops two with stop signs, the next stop the brakes locked up with a sudden stop. I did nothing different with the 4th stop when the brakes locked. I noticed that the brake light was displayed and needed to be pressed to in order to drive the car to reach a city road.
