Consumer Description

CAR DIED WHILE DRIVING IT. LOST POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. HAD CAR TOWED TO DEALER. IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS HAVING A FAULTY IGNITION MODULE. I WAS LUCKY I WAS NOT ON A HIGHWAY AT HIGH SPEED. GIVEN THE COMPANY RECALLS ON IGNITION PARTS ON OTHER NAME PLATES, IT IS LIKELY THAT THE BUICK'S ARE ALSO SEEING IGNITION PROBLEMS AND FAILURES BUT GM HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS CAR PLATFORM. I HOPE THAT NO ONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED BEFORE THIS DEFECTIVE PART IS RECALLED. I CONSIDER MYSELF LUCKY. UPDATED 10/16/14 *JB
