This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, customers should remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the ignition key. The key fob (if applicable), should also be removed from the key ring. General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2005-2009 Buick LaCrosse, 2006-2011 Buick Lucerne, 2000-2005 Cadillac DeVille, 2006-2011 Cadillac DTS, 2006-2014 Chevrolet Impala, and 2006-2007 Chevrolet Monte Carlo vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the weight on the key ring and road conditions or some other jarring event may cause the ignition switch to move out of the run position, turning off the engine.
Consequence: If the key is not in the run position, the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Additionally, a key knocked out of the run position will cause loss of engine power, power steering, and power braking, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will install two key rings and an insert in the key slot or a cover over the key head on all ignition keys, free of charge. The recall began on September 23, 2014. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick), 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac), and 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet). GM's number for this recall is 14299.

When I am driving my vehicle will just stall. If I do not let my car run for at least 5-10 minutes before I go anywhere it will stall out on me not long after. It has stalled on the highway, even a few times with my 6 year old in the vehicle. After it stalls out a lot of times I have to park it, turn it off, open my door/shut it, then wait for the inside light go out before I try to start it back up. It does start back up after I let the light go out but not everytime. I have sat there for 30 minutes to an hour more than 3 times. Now i do not have control of any of the master controls for the windows or locks. I have to lock my door manually now. I was told that it could be from my ignition switch which I know there was a recall on before. I would like another recall for this issue and for it to be fixed before something not so good happens.
The trunk allows water to enter each time it rains. This causes water to collect in the spare tire department in the trunk. After it rains, trunk must be vacuumed out in order to retrieve water out of trunk. Unfortunately, this has caused my trunk liner to mold completely, as well as to begin molding under my back seat. My daughter and I have a mold allergy which has been affected by the mold in the car which is impossible to get rid of due to the location it has grown.
I'VE HAD THE SENSOR TO MY TIRE MONITOR REPLACED 3 TIMES AND IT CONTINUES TO COME ON AND CAUSE MY TIRE LIGHT TO COME ON, ALTHOUGH MY TIRES ARE FINE. IT CONTINUES TO STALL WHEN I'M GOING INTO 1ST GEAR OR CHANGING GEARS ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN ACCELERATING MY PEDAL WILL SHAKE

Component: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
GM IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006-2009 BUICK, LUCERNE; CADILLAC DTS; HUMMER H2; MODEL YEAR 2008-2009 BUICK ENCLAVE; CADILLAC CTS; MODEL YEAR 2007-2009 CADILLAC ESCALADE, ESCALADE ESV, ESCALADE EXT; CHEVROLET AVALANCHE, SILVERADO, SUBURBAN, TAHOE; GMC ACADIA, SIERRA, YUKON, YUKON XL; SATURN OUTLOOK; AND MODEL YEAR 2009 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A HEATED WASHER FLUID SYSTEM (HWFS). A RECALL WAS IMPLEMENTED IN 2008 TO ADD A FUSE TO THE CONTROL CIRCUIT HARNESS TO ADDRESS THE POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES OF A PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD (PCB) ELECTRICAL SHORT. HOWEVER, THERE HAVE BEEN NEW REPORTS OF THERMAL INCIDENTS ON HWFS MODULES AFTER THIS IMPROVEMENT WAS INSTALLED. THESE INCIDENTS RESULTED FROM A NEW FAILURE MODE ATTRIBUTED TO THE DEVICE'S THERMAL PROTECTION FEATURE. THE SIGNIFICANCE VARIES FROM MINOR DISTORTION TO CONSIDERABLE MELTING OF THE PLASTIC AROUND THE HWFS FLUID CHAMBER.
Consequence: IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE HEATED WASHER MODULE TO IGNITE AND A FIRE MAY OCCUR.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL PERMANENTLY DISABLE AND REMOVE THE HEATED WASHER FLUID MODULE. AN UPDATED PAGE FOR THE OWNER MANUAL WILL BE PROVIDED AND INSERTED IN THE OWNER MANUAL TO DOCUMENT THAT THE FEATURE HAS BEEN PERMANENTLY DISABLED AND REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON JUNE 11, 2010.

I PURCHASED MY '07 BUICK LUCERNE CXL ABOUT A YEAR AGO AGO AN I ACTUALLY LOVE THE CAR HOWEVER; ABOUT 3 OR SO MONTHS AGO I NOTICED A WHAT I AM SUSPECTING IS THE TRANSMISSION OR POSSIBLY A CENSOR OR RELAY ISSUE CAUSING THE CAR TO MAKE A HESITATION AND DRAG WHEN I TRY TO KEEP A CONSISTENT SPEED AND ONLY QUITS WHEN I PRESS OR DEPRESS THE GAS PEDAL MAKING THE CAR EITHER ACCELERATE OR DECREASE IN SPEED DRASTICALLY. ALSO, ABOUT A MONTH AGO I NOTICED THE HEADLIGHTS AND DASH LIGHTS GET BRIGHTER AND THEN DIMMER IN A FLASHING MANNER AT NO CERTAIN INTERVAL; NOW THE "SERVICE BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEM" DIC MESSAGE ALONG WITH THE RED BATTERY DASH LIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF ALSO AT NO SPECIFIC TIME OR INTERVAL ( AT WHICH TIME MY HEATER/SEAT WARMERS/RADIO/ETC SHUT OFF ). I AM ABLE TO FORCE THE DIC MESSAGE AND BATTERY DASH LIGHT TO GO AWAY UPON MY REVVING THE ENGINE OR ACCELERATING DRASTICALLY. I HAVE HAD BOTH THE BATTERY AND THE ALTERNATOR CHECKED AND BOTH ARE IN GOOD WORKING ORDER SO NOW, AFTER SOME ONLINE RESEARCH, I WILL CHECK THE FUSES AND RELAY SWITCHES MORE INTENSELY. I PRAY I AM ABLE TO FIND A SOLUTION AS I REALLY DO LOVE MY CAR. ALSO, LAST WEEK MY TRANSPONDER KEY QUIT WORKING IN THE IGNITION AND HAD TO USE THE FOB REMOTE START TO START THE ENGINE, THANKFULLY UPON CHECKING THE FUSES UNDER THE BACK SEAT ( I GUESS FROM REMOVING AND REPLACING THEM ), THE KEY AND CONSOLE IGNITION DID START OPERATING NORMALLY AGAIN. AND I CHECKED MY VIN # ON THIS SITE AND IT IS RETURNING CLEAR TO HAVING NO CURRENT RECALLS. I AM HOWEVER WORRIED OF SOME OF THE STORIES I HAVE READ REGARDING MALFUNCTION, I FEAR I MAY BE FACING A FUTURE ALIKE INCIDENT SO IF ANYONE HAS ANY SOLUTIONS I AM ALL EARS. THANK YOU...
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ABOUT 1 MIKE FROM MY HOUSE. THE ROAD IS A COUNTRY ROAD AND IS STRAIGHT. I WASN'T DISTRACTED OR SPEEDING. IT HAPPENED SO FAST BUT I THINK I MAY HAVE HIT A SLIGHT BUMP ON THE RIGHT HAND SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND THEN THE CAR STARTED FISH TAILING AND THEN WENT OFF THE ROAD AND WAS STOPPED WHEN IT HIT A DIRT DRIVEWAY. I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE CAR AND THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE CAR. THE CAR WAS TOTALED WITH ONLY 36000 MILES ON IT EVEN THOUGH I LUCKILY JUST SIDESWIPED A TREE. THE CAR ALWAYS SEEMED HARD TO STEER AS IF THE STEERING WAS LOOSE AND YOU REALLY HAD TO PAY ATTENTION AND KEEP BOTH HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CAR WAS MY ELDERLY IN-LAWS WHO BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW IN 2007. THEY BOTH PASSED AWAY IN NOVEMBER 2018 AND THEN I INHERITED IT AND HAD JUST RECENTLY STARTED DRIVING IT. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.
BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT HEADLIGHTS, BOTH HI-BEAMS AND LOW BEAMS WILL NOT ILLUMINATE. ALL OTHER EXTERIOR LIGHTS WORK. AC DELCO 22860591 BODY CONTROL MODULE HAS BEEN REPLACED AND PROGRAMED. ALL FUSES AND RELAYS HAVE BEEN CHECKED. HEADLIGHT SWITCH # 15926061 (WITHOUT FOG AND TRUNK RELEASE) REPLACED. HEAD LAMBS STILL DO NOT WORK. WITHOUT HEADLIGHTS THIS CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.
VEHICLE STALLS UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE IT'S JUST SITTING. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING SIGN AS TO WHEN THIS WILL HAPPEN. IT'S STALLED ON ME WHILE DRIVING IN ALL WEATHER CONDITIONS AND AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. THE ENGINE JUST QUITS. SOMETIMES IT WILL RESTART AFTER A SHORT WHILE, AND AT OTHER TIMES IT'S HAD TO BE TOWED. WE'VE HAD IT TO DIFFERENT DEALERS AND MECHANICS AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT. CAN'T DRIVE OR SELL IT IN THIS CONDITION. THE SAME PROBLEMS OCCURRED WHEN MY FATHER OWNED THE CAR. HE TOOK IT IN SEVERAL TIMES FOR REPAIR ALSO, AND AGAIN, NOTHING SOLVED THE PROBLEM.
TARATA RECALL MY AIR BAG LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON WHEN YOU START IT IN SCREEN UNDER SPEED AND THE LIGHT ALSO. AND IT STAYS ON UNTIL YOU TAKE OUT KEY.
WHILE TURNING RIGHT AT A SLOW SPEED THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP (WOULDN'T TURN) FOR A SECOND. AFTER THAT I WAS ABLE TO RESUME STEERING THROUGH THE CORNER. THE ENGINE DID NOT SHUT OFF.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BUICK LUCERNE. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE IGNITION KEY WAS UNABLE TO TURN TO THE ON OR OFF POSITION. ADDITIONALLY, THE GEAR SHIFTER FAILED TO MOVE FROM THE DRIVE POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER TWENTY MINUTES AND OPERATED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (OURISMAN CHEVROLET OF MARLOW HEIGHTS, 4400 BRANCH AVE, MARLOW HEIGHTS, MD 20748, (240) 455-3386), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,894.
