I've had my car for 3 years. I've always kept up with it's maintenance. My engine/head gasket are blown and I found out this is a common issue with this car. The airbags also dont recognize when there are passengers in the car. I started my car up one morning in September and all of my lights started flashing. I immediately turned it off and towed it to my mechanic to find out that it pretty much has everything wrong with it. My car is barely above 80k

We have had problems with the air bags since the car was new. The SRS light would come on for a couple months then go off. It says it has a problem with the passenger presence module. Never had a recall but the dealer said that when we took it in for an oil change they updated the firmware on the air bag system. It never did work, it would sometimes work then not work. I took it back a few weeks ago and told them it still isn't right and I said since it is a safety issue they should cover it. They told me that...

While driving, I received a call that routed through the Bluetooth hands-free system. Within seconds of receiving the call, the entire system seemed to blitz out and shut the car off completely. Luckily I was not going fast and was able to glide to the side. I lost almost all the ability to control the car. If this had been on the freeway it wouldn't have ended as well.

I purchased this vehicle in 2017 with only 45,000 miles, 1 year warranty was purchased. I have had constant issues with tires, but more seriously I have had over $2000 in repairs for intake manifold, air conditioning, various issues with tires, repaired thermostat. I had an ignition problem repaired in 2019 and now the check engine light keeps flashing, the motor doesn't want to engage and I am in fear for my life that I will be on the highway and it will just shut down, causing a collision!

Takata recall? The eletrical control display turns off and sometimes back on randomly creating a definited driver distraction. The one connection I have made is it does happen at times when I turn slightly (not full hard turn needed)on the steering wheel. This concerns me as a safety issue; I ask is this related to the system electrical issue in recall 15168? For me it involves safety as anything happening in a vehicle unexpectedly create distraction. In my case it is momentary, yet distracting none the less. Ther date listed belong is one of many times.

The display screen goes black during the day light hrs. Then comes back on sometime later. So you can't see the radio stations.

"Takara recall" my 2015 buick as been doing diffrent things. First the blinkers and radio went out and then it came back and now none of the doors lock worked. I was stuck inside my car for 30 min. Now the ignition gets really hot. And the doors won't unlock in the back. Im concern about what's going on. While driving the signal wasn't working neither the radio but out of nowhere it starts working. It's been doing it on and off for the past four or so days. The key is getting very hot to where it almost burn me. Very weird... Im truly concern about that. And I was in the car when the door wouldn't unlock.

I was driving on a highway at 65mph. On a straight portion of the road the engine light came on , the engine revved up to over 4000 rpm, the power steering locked up, and many other lights came on on the dashboard display. This was a very dangerous situation trying to control the car. I was forced to slow down and when I reached 40mph the power steering came back on. The engine was still running over 4000 rpm. Most of the dashboard display lights went off except for the check engine light. Had to drive under 40 mph...
