NHTSA Complaint #10316100 — 2005 BUICK TERRAZA

MY 2005 BUICK TERRAZA HAD DEVELOPED PROBLEMS WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT COMING ON WARNING TO HAVE IT SERVICED. THE DEALER PUT IT ON HIS COMPUTER AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AFTER THEY REPLACED THE TRACTION CONTROL MODULE. THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN WITHIN A WEEK. AFTER THE LIGHT CAME ON WITHIN A FEW MILES THE BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY SLAMMED ON SLOWING THE VAN CONSIDERABLY. IT HAPPENED AT LEAST 4 MORE TIMES BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICING. AFTER SEVERAL HOURS I WAS TOLD IT WAS PROBABLY THE ABS SYSTEM HAD FAILED AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE IT. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM BEFORE BUT WANTED TO BRING IT TO YOUR ATTENTION IN CASE IT MIGHT HAPPENED TO SOMEONE ELSE. *TR
