NHTSA Complaint #11194984 — 2013 BUICK ENCLAVE

MY 2013 BUICK ENCLAVE STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS BACK IN DECEMBER. WHEN I WAS DRIVING ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE CAR CHIMED ABOUT 3 TIMES THEN ALL THE SUDDEN THE DASHBOARD READ THE FOLLOWING: 1.ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED 2.SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL OFF 3.SERVICE STABILITRAK 4.THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AT THE SAME TIME, THE ENGINE POWER STARTED TO DIE DOWN AND I WAS BARELY MOVING. IT WAS HARD TO STEER AND ALL POWER FUNCTIONS GREATLY REDUCED. ONCE I SHUT IT OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON BUT IT SWITCHED FROM TRACTION CONTROL OFF TO TRACTION CONTROL ON. THEN I WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE DRIVING AGAIN. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE THINKING IT WAS A GOOD FAMILY CAR BUT NOW AFTER DEALING WITH THIS PROBLEM AND SEEING ALL THE COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND NOTHING BEING DONE, NO RECALL, I MADE A BAD CHOICE. MY CHILDREN WERE WITH ME WHEN THIS HAPPEND A FEW TIMES AND WE WERE ALMOST REAR ENDED BECAUSE OF IT. THE CAR LITERALLY STOPS WORKING. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND IS NOT UNCOMMON TO GMC VEHICLES. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY GMC HAS NOT IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM. I AM TAKING IT TO NIMNICHT DEALERSHIP TOMORROW IN JACKSONVILLE. HOPEFULLY THEY HAVE SOME REAL ANSWERS BEFORE THIS CAR ENDS UP KILLING ME OR SOMEONE ELSE. VERY DISAPPOINTED GMC AFTER READING ALL THE COMPLAINTS AND NOTHING BEING DONE.
