“The vehicle has been having misfires and power liftgate since owning the vehicle. The vehicle has been to multiple dealerships and I have to this very day put 15k miles on the vehicle. Needless to say GM has not been any help in getting the problem taken care of. I have sent GM video of the vehicle misfire. I finally have conformation that the vehicle has had 53 misfires.”

“Mientras conducía el panel de instrumento digital donde están los relojes se apagó en su totalidad. El auto siguió funcionando pero no podía ver nada en el panel porque estaba literalmente muerto. Me moví hacia un costado de la carretera y apagué el carro. Lo volví a prender pero el panel siguió muerto. El carro si trabajaba. Llegue con mucho temor a casa y lo envié al concesionario donde lo compré. Me dijeron que era el panel de instrumentos y que lo tenían que cambiar.”

“The infotainment center has a tendency to freeze upon starting the car. Subsequently, when the car is put in reverse the back up camera will remain on for several minutes after putting the car back into drive causing a distraction to the driver. The freezing of the infotainment screen will often stay frozen even after turning the car off. When the car is off and the door is closed and locked, the screen stays on and music stays blasting, unable to turn the music down or off even though the car is off and locked with no one inside. …”
