Owner report 11612358 · 2024-09-03 (September 3, 2024)

While sitting at a stoplight, my vehicle began chiming along with the following symbols illuminated on the dash: Brake System Warning Light, Antilock Brake System (ABS), Malfunction Indicator Lamp, Electronic Stability Control (ESC). I also received the following warning messages: "Brake System Failure Max Speed 62 mph," "Service Stabilitrak," & "Steering Assist Reduced." When the stoplight turned green, I accelerated at a low speed to get through the intersection so I could safely pull over. When I hit the brakes, I had to jam the brake peda…

Owner report 11616028 · 2024-09-23 (September 23, 2024)

On Friday, September 13, 2024, without warning, the instrument panel that shows the speed of the car (and left and right turn signals), turned off and went black (blank), while I was driving my brand new Buick, Envista. It was less than three months old at the time. The car’s mileage was at about 1,000 miles. I did not know what speed my car was going, other than by watching cars around me. I did not know if the car’s turn signals were working. I did not know if the car’s brake lights were working. I did not know if traffic behind me would know…

Owner report 11620087 · 2024-10-16 (October 16, 2024)

I picked up my new lease on 9/23/24. I don't understand why the rear taillights at the hatch level don't also work as turn indicators/brake lights. I learned that there is a set of lights on the lower half of the rear end, closer to the fascia. Once I was following another Buick Envista and I was amazed at how low those lights are. On another occasion when I was using the adaptive cruise control, I almost caused an accident because the driver behind me apparently did not see any brake lights in their "usual" position.

Owner report 11636281 · 2025-01-16 (January 16, 2025)

On January 15, 2025, my front panel went completely blank (black screen) moments after driving off a parking lot. I pulled over, turned the car off to try to reset it, but didn’t work. Tried this 3-4 different times in different locations. I also had no exterior lights working. My main lights, brake and headlights were not functioning. This was very stressful and luckily it was still daylight, so I returned home immediately. I took a video of this incident for my records. Next day, the panel is working properly.

On four separate occasions now, while driving, the vehicle has completely shutdown. Two times this has happened in a parking lot and was relatively safe when it happened, but the other two times have been while driving on the freeway at freeway speeds. On all occasions, the entire dash will flicker a couple times, while the engine will sputter and then shut off. When this happens ALL systems including brakes, dashboard, engine, and steering are completely inoperable. Twice this has happened on the freeway while moving at freeway speeds. Thankfu…
