Side detection malfunction message on dash. Blind spot and cross traffic alerts not working. Vehicle has a blind spot on the driver's side and without this alert, I have found that vehicles appear to not be there but actually which causes issues with merging traffic and lane changes leading to potential collisions. Dealer replaced the side detection modules under warranty and special policy because of water intrusion into the modules. This exact same symptoms and parts have occurred and replaced 5 times, and a 6th is currently needed. All work was performed exclusively at gmac dealer and vehicle is accident free. Gm issued a special policy that covered this specific repair, and the vehicle now needs to it done a 6th time and gm has refused to assist saying vehicle is out of special policy. I have requested that gm inspect the vehicle but no response. I contacted gm and they declined assistance. I currently have the feature turned off because it was providing an error message on the dash and false alerts. I don't believe that gm actually has a long-term fix for this safety issue.
