BRAKE FAILED

WHILE DRIVING AROUND 65 MPH ON A HIGHWAY. THE BATTERY LIGHT WENT ON. THEN SUDDENLY THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES DIED. IT WAS VERY SCARY. A HUGH SAFETY ISSUE, THIS VERY EASILY COULD HAVE LEAD TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, CRASH OR DEATH. THE STEERING WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN AND THE BRAKES HARD TO PUSH DOWN. BUT THE CAR WAS STILL RUNNING AND LUCKILY I WAS CLOSE TO A EXIT. I PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY AND STOPPED IN STORE PARKING LOT. IT WOULD NOT START AFTER GETTING THERE. I HAD TO HAVE IT TAKEN TO A BUICK DEALERSHIP. IT WAS ALSO SHOWING A AIR BAG ERROR MESSAGE. THEY TOLD ME IT HAD TO DO WITH THE SEAT POSITION OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I HAVE HAD IT THERE 6 TIMES THIS YEAR WITH THE SAME ISSUE. ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO FOR THE 7TH TIME OF TAKING IT THERE THEY FINALLY REPLACED...

POWER STEERING SERVICE SOON WARNING COMES ON AND POWER STEERING IS LOST. GENERAL MOTORS HAS BEEN NOTIFIED AND DEALER HAS RESET COMPUTER. CONTINUES TO FAIL. EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STEER WHEN THIS HAPPENS. HAPPENS AT SLOW SPEEDS ON CITY STREETS AND WHILE TURNING.
