Consumer Description
SAME ISSUE I SEE MULTIPLE GM OWNERS HAVING. SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS AFTER MULTIPLE REPAIRS. HAVE HAD SENSORS REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAVE HAD TO EVERY YEAR AT LEAST IF NOT EVERY SIX MONTHS. INITIALLY UNDER WARRANTY, BUT NOW NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I UNDERSTAND VEHICLES HAVE ISSUES, BUT THE SAME ISSUES OVER AND OVER AGAIN IS NOT OKAY. I HAVE HAD WHERE IT SHORTS OUT MY ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WHILE DRIVING. I LITERALLY FEARED FOR MY LIFE. EVEN THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGES THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH GM SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM. IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. IT HAS NEVER BEEN LONGER THAN A YEAR BEFORE THE ISSUE COME UP AGAIN. I AM NOT EVEN ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE ISSUES THE SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM CAUSES. EITHER I LOSE ALL ELECTRICAL IN THE CAR OR IT DRAINS THE BATTERY SO I CANNOT START THE CAR. I HONESTLY DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. I ONLY SEE THE OPTION ONCE TO INDICATE WHEN IT HAPPENED, SO I WILL PUT THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE.
