NHTSA Complaint #11318979 — 2015 BUICK VERANO

CHEVY CRUZE SERVICE SIDE DETECTION MODULE WAS RECALLED. BUICK VERANO USES THE SAME PART. MY BUICK SHOWED SERVICE SIDE DETECTION. THE DESIGN ALLOWS WATER AND SALT TO INTERFERE WITH THE PERFORMANCE. IT SHUT DOWN MY CAR. ENABLED MY ANTILOCK THEFT SYSTEM AND ALL VOLTAGE SYSTEMS SHUT DOWN. THE CAR PROCEEDED TO DRIVE ERRATICALLY. I WAS ADVISED ONLINE BY A BUICK MECHANIC TO UNPLUG THE DEVICE. MY CAR IS DRIVABLE AGAIN. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I PAID EXTRA FOR THE BLIND SPOT DETECTOR. EVEN IF I REPLACE IT THE DESIGN WILL ALLOW IT TO HAPPEN AGAIN. IT IS NOT PROTECTED WHERE IT IS LOCATED AND IT SENDS VOLTAGE ERROR CODES OFF(ALL VOLTAGE CODES) SERVICE AIRBAGS, SERVICE EVERYTHING. I HAVE PICTURES AS PROOF. PROOF OF THE CONVERSATION ADVISING ME TO DISCONNECT IT AND A READ OUT FROM A LOCAL GM DEALER SHOWING EVERY VOLTAGE CODE FAILURE.
