NHTSA Complaint #10321312 — 2002 BUICK RENDEZVOUS

2002 BUICK RENDEVOUS, ELECTRICAL AND HEAD GASKET PURCHASED THIS CAR OVER A YEAR AGO SO FAR HAD TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION AND REPAIR TRANSMISSION X2, NEEDS HEAD GASKETS DUE TO MY CAR OVERHEATING GRADUALLY, HAVE TO BLEED THE SYSTEM FOR AIR PRETTY MUCH EVERY OTHER DAY TO GET HEAT IN THE CAR. MY COMPUTER HAS BEEN REPLACED 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING IT AFTER BEING UNABLE TO CLEAR ITSELF OF THE CODES. THIS LAST INCIDENT THE BATTERY DIED AND SINCE NOW THE COMPUTER IS RUNNING THE CAR CAUSING MY CAR TO RUN IN PARK AT 3 RPM'S, IN NEUTRAL IT SHOOTS UP TO 4500, IT DRIVES ABOUT 2-2.5 RPMS. THE COMPUTER WAS CLEARED AND RESET LAST NIGHT RPM'S DROPPED TO ABOUT 760 STILL ELEVATED BUT OK, THEN STARTED IT THIS MORNING TO TAKE MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL AND IT DROVE ITSELF, STALLING AS I WATCHED THE COMPUTER RUN THROUGH AS IT WAS POSSESSED, I HAVE SINCE CALLED THE CAR "CHRISTINE". I CAN SEE THE COMPUTER RUNNING THE CAR, AS THE RPMS ELEVATE AND THEN DECREASE, SHUTTING THE CAR DOWN ETC, I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT THERE IS NO RECALLS AS THIS IS SO DANGEROUS. THERE ARE NO CODES RELATING TO THIS ISSUE, NO TRANSMISSION, ENGINE ISSUES, THIS IS COMPLETELY COMPUTER RELATED. I HAD SOMEONE WITH A COMPLEX SYSTEM DELETE ALL CODES AND HAVE THE COMPUTER RELEARN ITSELF. IT WORKED. STARTED IT THIS MORNING AND STARTED ALL OVER. BETWEEN THE COMPUTER AND HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEM, THIS CAR IS A CONSTANT HEADACHE NOT TO MENTION I HAVE HAD THIS CAR IN THE REPAIR SHOP MORE THAN I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE IT ESPECIALLY SINCE I'M STILL PAYING ON IT.
