Well driving, fuel indications went out and car started to do rough idling with poorer fuel economy. Upon inspection, wiring harness by driveshaft on the driver side got caught in the driveshaft and destroyed wiring.

The engine light came on, it was trembling for a month prior to the light. Then pepboys could not find problem. Reset electrical panel. A week later brake stabilizer light came on. Took to ocean Cadillac in miami. The engine was smoking, knocking and about to go on fire. It lost pressure and I called insurance flatbed.. after fuel pump replaced and $1200 later.. picked up and drove off. 15 minutes later engine vibrating & smoking as service dept closed. They gave me a loaner car, and said fuel pump blown out from engine malfuction.. other owners, same model, told, me a common problem that GM repairs for free since on recall. The delearship now says 4,000 bill to fix the root of the problem. This should be covered by GM who does not answer the phone. Two months going back and forth the delearship and no more money to give 4,000 to the engine which is on recall & responsibility of GM motors.

The airbag is not functional, the airbag light stays on. The side mirror is not folding with the remote folding bottom. This is helpful when parking in a parking lot where there are many cars. The body color is colluding.
