Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“This has happened on more than one occassions and after doing a search on the interenet I have found others who have had the same problem. My car starts but it does not turn over all the way. It will do this several times then it finally starts. The battery is brand new and is very strong, and like I mentioned it starts and is strong it just does not turn all the way over. Alternator is fine, etc. Believed to be some type of electrical issue.”
NHTSA complaint #10808417, filed 2015-12, 62,000 miles“I went to get out of my car and the door handle wouldn't let me out(drivers side). My car shows its unlocked, yet it will not open the door. Finally, the door opened up. But again, after grocery shopping, my car failed to let me in!! I was stranded at walmart for a good 20 minutes before the door decided to start working again! This is a serious malfunction with GM cars! I looked up my problem, and it seems to be a reoccuring thing with GM. Why are they not recalling this?! …”

I noticed my power steering ESC indicator on my dash was showing plus the off road and a smell of burning.this was a scary moment due to the fact that I felt not in control of my vehicle and the high possibility of a accident.
