2013 BUICK REGAL Fuelpropulsion System Problems

GM DEALERSHIP MISDIAGNOSED THE TRANSMISSION AS NEEDING REPLACEMENT, AND QUOTE A $4500 REPAIR PRICE. AFTER GETTING 3 ALTERNATIVE EXPERT OPINIONS, THE PROBLEM WAS THE THROTTLE BODY; REPAIRED FOR $420. NOW THE FORMERLY RECALLED GENERATOR ALTERNATOR HAS FAILED. CAR WILL NOT RESTART WHEN STOPPED, WHILE DRIVING. GM HAS TOLD ME THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE FORMERLY RECALLED PART UNDER WARRANTY, OR BUT NOT IF FOR MISDIAGNOSING THE TRANSMISSION AND THE PART FAILING WHEN GARNERING 2ND OPINIONS. GM ALSO TOLD ME THAT IT IS NOT THE DEALERSHIP'S JOB TO ALERT A CUSTOMER OF A RECALL. IF THAT IS THEIR PROCESS FOR RECALLS, I AM AFRAID FOR THE LIVES OF OTHERS. I AM ALSO AFRAID THAT THEY POSSIBLY DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND HOW TO DIAGNOSE A VEHICLE PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE. THEY CONFIRMED THE PART NOW IN QUESTION WAS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AT THEIR DEALERSHIP, BUT RECOMMENDED A NEW TRANSMISSION DUE TO HIGH MILES...

CONSOLE WONT TURN ON IN THE HEAT. IT DISCONNECTS. PARKING LIGHT SAYS NOT IN PARK WHEN PARKED AND WONT TURN OFF. LIGHTS BURN OUT VERY FAST. HAS HAPPENED SINCE I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE , NEW! IT IS VERY SLUGGISH WHEN TAKING OFF FROM STOP.

I HAVE A BUICK POWER ADD ON SYSTEM THAT IS 50 STATE CARB LEGAL CALLED THE STAGE ONE KIT OFFERED BY GM THE KIT CONSISTS OF AN AIR INTAKE AND A SOFTWARE CALIBRATION. AMONG ALL THE ISSUES I HAVE BEEN HAVING WITH THE CAR THEIR FINAL SOLUTION WAS TO INSTALL THE OEM CALIBRATION AND FUEL TABLES BUT LEAVE THE THE STAGE ONE KIT INSTALLED. I BELIEVE THIS MAKES MY CAR NON-50 STATE EMISSIONS COMPLIANT. PART NUMBER FOR STAGE KIT IS 12653664. THE ISNTALLATION MANUAL SPECIFICALLY MENTIONS NOT DRIVING WITHOUT THE CALIBRATION UPDATE FROM THE DEALER. I HAVE NO WAY OF PUTTING IT BACK IN.

ON 3-7-15, UPON LEAVING MCDONALD'S ON 14 MILE RD., IN ROYAL OAK, MI. I APPROACHED THE END OF THE DRIVEWAY, STOPPED, WAITING FOR TRAFFIC TO CLEAR. STARTING TO TURN OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, I WENT TO ACCELERATE, THE CAR DID START TO GO, BUT SUDDENLY, WITH NO WARNING, THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THIS OCCURRED WHILE I WAS NOW ON THE MAIN ROAD, WITH CARS APPROACHING, NO ACCELERATION. I GLIDED INTO THE DRIVEWAY RIGHT NEXT DOOR, HARDLY MADE IT SAFELY. I TESTED THE CAR IN DRIVE AND REVERSE, AND THE CAR RESPONDED. I DROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP, RIGHT LANE, FLASHERS ON. THEY TESTED THE CAR BY COMPUTER CODING "RUNNING LEAN". THEY DETERMINED THIS WAS THE PROBLEM. I WAS CALLED AND TOLD A LOOSE CABLE AND SCREW TO THE BATTERY CAUSED THE PROBLEM. I ASKED AND WAS TOLD "RUNNING LEAN" HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. THEY SAID IT CODED PREVIOUSLY...
