Consumer Description

IN THE SPRING OF 2012 (APPROXIMATELY 48,000 MILES), I WAS DRIVING IN A 40 - 45 MPH ZONE, MADE A SHARP LEFT TURN INTO A PARKING LOT AND THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND POWER STEERING TO SHUT DOWN. I PREVIOUSLY REPORTED THIS INCIDENT TO MY LOCAL BUICK DEALER, PINEGAR CHEVROLET, BRANSON, MO, JUST TO HAVE THIS INCIDENT ON RECORD. ON DECEMBER 29, 2014 (89,000 MILES) THIS SAME TYPE EVENT OCCURRED WHEN SLOWING DOWN (IN A 45 MPH ZONE) AND MAKING A SHARP LEFT TURN INTO A PARKING LOT. CAR SHUT OFF, HAD TO COMPLETELY STOP, PLACE GEAR IN PARK AND RESTART. SOUNDS LIKE SAME IGNITION ISSUES DISCOVERED IN GM CARS RECENTLY, BUT THE BUICK RENDEZVOUS HAS NOT BEEN INCLUDED. *TR
