The engine light has come on and a diagnostic check has been made and I was told it needed the transmission replaced. This car has only 112,000 miles on it and has been maintained. Why would there be transmission issues with low mileage?

On the SVC list, the traction control will turn off unexpectedly & the check engine light will come on. Recently, when this occured, 01/09/2022, the vehicle would start to jerk & lose power. The vehicle eventually recovered after a few minutes at reduced speed. Speed of vehicle during these occurences was any where from 30 to 45 mph, on good asphalt road, driving at a constant speed. Will return to dealer again on 1/12/2022, car will have approxmitely 25000 on it. ADAS list, foward collision warning would not always work. Lane departure warning would sometimes turn off from a few seconds to several minutes. Dealer unable to reproduce problems, no error reading indicating problem, no bulletins from manufacture related to problems. Was told to keep driving the vehicle until something happens again, then bring it in. ( I guess I am not suppose to drive it out of town.)

Heard a rattle or fluttering sound coming from front area of Enclave, took to dealer on 12/21/2017 and was informed after having a test drive and inspection, sound was an A/C hose contacting another hose, dealer in buford, ga stated issue was repaired. While traveling North 12/26/17 on interstate 85 at approx. 65 mph and heard the same sound again only not as loud continued on to nashville tn, while traveling on North on 12/27/17 heard the sound again on kept getting louder, this time was able to see a small black object flapping in the front of the SUV. Was able to pull off and upon looking at front of my SUV spotted that the bug guard was loose and an approx. 3 inch piece was missing from bug guard. Very disappointed that the guard was applied with just adhesive when purchased from the dealer. Now front of vehicle has paint and metal damage from this cheap GM bug guard!!! in my opinion this is a cheap product that GM company is offering to customers who purchase their vehicles!!
