This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I was driving on I-95 at at approximately 70 mph. I slowed to get off the exit and as I did the engine died and the power steering and brakes were inoperative. Luckily I didn't hit anyone. The engine failed again later in the same evening and twice 2 days later on I-95 at 70 mph
While sitting at a stop light for a busy intersection, the check engine light and message appeared with the statements engine power reduced and service stabilitrak. I was able to pull off into a parking lot and shut the car down for a restart. Upon restart, the messages continued. I researched my owner's manual in which it said given these messages, the car was safe to drive but needed to be checked out. I attempted to proceed to my destination, however the transmission would not shift into second gear, and the vehicle would top out at approximately 30 mph. While I was in a 55 mph zone, I decided to again pull off the road and contact onstar. My vehicle was towed to the dealer. The following afternoon, the dealership contacted me saying the problem was a bad high-pressure fuel pump. The dealer had a spare fuel pump in-stock, however the fuel line is non-serviceable, and I was told they were on a back-order of 3-5 days. Seven days later the dealer called to let me know that GM was re-engineering that fuel line and it could be upwards of a month before the car would be repaired. After a total of 17 days, the car was repaired and everything seems to be back in order.
