Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The passenger side rear door does not unlock from the inside or the outside. My daughter was in the back seat and told me she could not get out. I got out of the car and attempted to open the door from the outside with no success. I tried the electric lock button on the driver side and passenger side without success. This is a very dangerous situation and have read numerous complaints from many individuals. It appears GM has a faulty locking mechanism.”
NHTSA complaint #10761886, filed 2015-09, 183,200 miles“Rear passenger side door was opened and closed after entering, once we tried to open that door it no longer opened from the inside or the outside. The same thing happened to the rear driver's side door the next day, now neither of the rear doors open from the inside or the outside. The child safety locks were not on prior to this happening so it couldn't have had an effect on why this happened as we were able to exit the vehicle without having to open them from the inside and outside, now it won't open at all from either side. …”
NHTSA complaint #10759829, filed 2015-08, 93,910 miles“While passing a vehicle, accelerator immediately accelerated the vehicle to over 115 MPH quickly, and the speed continued to climb. Could not deaccelerate. Both feet on the brake, no luck, shifted to 1st gear, no luck, pushed many buttons on steering wheel, no luck, accepted the fact that this was going to be a high speed deliberate rollover. Finally at the last possible moment, throttle disengaged.”
NHTSA complaint #11183646, filed 2019-03, 150,000 miles“Vehicle has numerous issues over the years. 80k miles currently, tires leak air because of corrosion on the rims, this is my 2nd set of tires not counting the set the vehicle came with, breaks have been done twice, rotors have been replaced, both front door handles have come off, problems with the leveler, now door locks lock/unlock while driving but not just once (might happen 6-8 times). Local dealer & service station have performed repairs/replacements. Already been under 2 recalls.”
NHTSA complaint #10896372, filed 2016-08, 80,000 miles“The doors, specifically rear doors, in this vehicle get stuck in an open or closed position. It appears to be a defect that causes the door latch to stay in the closed position, trapping children or other passengers in the back seat, or preventing the door from closing. From internet research, this is a common issue with the Lucerne (not just 2006) and the lacrosse. First we had the passenger rear door get stuck closed. After a month or so of unlocking and locking the doors, it started working again randomly, but a few months later, became stuck closed again with no trigger. …”
