ENGINE | 7/21/2014 - JEANNETTE, PA
WAS DRIVING ON ROUTE HEADED TOWARDS HARRISBURG ON I 83 SOUTH, AND THE ENGINE CUT OUT, NOT ONCE, BUT 3 TIMES. THE CAR TOTALLY LOST ALL POWER. EACH TIME I PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TREMBLING AND PRAYING THAT THE CAR WOULD RESTART. ALL INSTRUMENT PANELS WENT OUT, NO WARNING LIGHTS TO WARN OF WHAT MAY COME NEXT.. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE TO WAIT A WEEK TO GET IN.

EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE | 6/20/2014 - MURFRESBORO, TN
THE CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH A BACK UP CAMERA AND SCREEN INSIDE. WHICH I UNDERSTAND WILL SHORTLY BE A REQUIREMENT FOR ALL CARS. HOWEVER THERE ARE SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH CAMERA/SCREEN SYSTEM. IF CAR IS PARKED IN A GARAGE THE LIGHT SENSOR SETS THE TV SCREEN TO THE LOWEST LEVEL, AND WHEN YOU BACK OUT INTO THE DAY LIGHT, YOU ARE UNABLE TO SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING IN BACK OF THE CAR, AS SCREEN TO DO DARK TO BE VISIBLE. PLUS IF YOU HAVE SUNGLASSES ON, IT IS EVEN WORSE. SOME GM CARS I AM TOLD CAN OVERRIDE THE DARK SCREEN, BUT NOT ON THIS MODEL. ALSO SCREEN DISPLAY IT HIGH UP ON DASH, AND WHN THE SUN IS OVERHEAD IT OVERPOWERS THE SCREEN AND AGAIN THE BACK UP TV SYSTEM IS UNUSABLE. I FEEL THAT THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE FIXED SO THE SAFETY FEATURE IN THE CAR WITH DO WHAT IT SHOULD. I HAVE WRITTEN TO GM ON THE ITEM, BUT NO SATISFACTION FROM THEN ON THE ITEM.

SUSPENSION | 3/30/2014 - MEMPHIS, TN
THIS CAR HAS ALWAYS HAD A RUBBING OR GRINDING SENSATION JUST AFTER MAKING A TURN, AT LOW SPEEDS. IT IS SUBTLE BUT DEFINITELY THERE. THE DEALER DISCOUNTED MY CLAIM DURING THE FIRST SERVICE VISIT AND SAID THAT IT IS NORMAL. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE STEERING ISSUES THAT I HAVE AT HIGHER SPEEDS OR NOT. THIS ISSUE ONLY HAPPENS JUST AFTER MAKING HARD TURNS SUCH AS 90 DEGREE TURNS FROM STREET TO STREET. IT DOES NOT OCCUR WHEN MAKING CURVES.

STEERING | 3/30/2014 - MEMPHIS, TN
THIS CAR HAS STEERING ISSUES DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING. THE STEERING GETS VERY STIFF AND APPEARS TO GET STUCK WHEN THE WHEELS ARE IN ONE POSITION FOR VERY LONG SUCH AS ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED A MULTITUDE OF TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE LAST JULY. IN THE BEGINNING, I ASSUMED IT WAS BECAUSE THE CAR WAS NEW BUT IT'S TAKING MORE AND MORE EFFORT TO ADJUST THE STEERING DURING HIGHWAY TRAVEL. THIS IS A CONCERN BECAUSE ONE DAY IT COULD LEAD TO OVER ADJUSTMENT AND MAYBE A WRECK AT HIGHER SPEEDS. DRIVING IN THE CITY WHERE I LIVE IS NOT A PROBLEM, AS THAT I MAKE FREQUENT TURNS AND THE STEERING DOES NOT HAVE TIME TO LOCK UP.

STEERING WHEEL STICKS AND SEEMS TO ONLY HAPPEN AT HIGHER SPEEDS. HAVE NOTICED ONLY WHEN CAR STEERING IS IN ONE STILL POSITION FOR 4-5 SECONDS AND THEN HAVE TO READJUST STEERING COURSE OR TURN. YOU HAVE TO USE AN ABNORMAL AMOUNT OF FORCE TO GET STEERING WHEEL TO MOVE. CONERN IS FOR OVER ADJUSTMENT. THIS HAPPENS ON A REGULAR BASIS NOW. MAY OCCUR AT LOWER SPEEDS BUT IS NOT NOTICED AS I DRIVE IN THE CITY MORE OFTEN SO AM FREQUENTLY TURNING AND ADJUSTING COURSE. THERE IS ONE OTHER REPORT ON HERE TO DATE ABOUT SAME PROBLEM.
