NHTSA complaint #11196673, filed 2019-04, 41,352 miles“The light is on and the warning chime constantly goes off when someone is in the passenger seat. This is a known recall issue yet my VIN is not included. It needs to be fixed at the cost of the manufacturer and not my own.”
NHTSA complaint #11580003, filed 2024-03“Chevy cruze service side detection module was recalled. Buick Verano uses the same part. My Buick showed service side detection. The design allows water and salt to interfere with the performance. It shut down my car. Enabled my antilock theft system and all voltage systems shut down. The car proceeded to drive erratically. I was advised online by a Buick mechanic to unplug the device. My car is drivable again. This is a safety issue. I paid extra for the blind spot detector. Even if I replace it the design will allow it to happen again. …”
