| 2012 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I PURCHASED MY CAR BRAND NEW WITH 3 MILES ON IT IN NOVEMBER 2011. WHEN I HIT AROUND 7500 MILES I NOTICED THE CAR WHEN STOPPED ON A HILL WOULD DRIFT BACKWARDS - WHEN I GOT TO 7800 MILES THE WHENEVER I WAS IN TRAFFIC TRAVELING AROUND 5-13 MPH I NOTICED THE CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT ON IT'S OWN THE RPM'S WOULD SHOOT UP AND THE TACH WOULD REV BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT GO. I WOULD NEED TO PUT IT IN PARK AND THEN DRIVE AND IT WOULD BE FINE. THIS HAPPENED ALMOST EVERY DAY FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS. WHEN GOING TO PARK AND PUT IT IN REVERSE TO BACK IN THE CAR WOULD HESITATE ABOUT 30 SECONDS BEFORE IT WOULD MOVE.. I CONTACTED MY DEALER AND TOOK IT IN. ONSTAR SAID THEY DID NOT FIND ISSUES WHEN THEY CHECKED. THE DEALER CORRECTED THE PROBLEM.. ON THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE THEY HAD TO REPROGRAM IT WITH SPS ( NOT SURE WHAT THE MEANS ) AND IT NOW WORKS LIKE THE DAY I PULLED IT OFF THE LOT.... THEY ALSO LEFT ME KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER ISSUES TO CONTACT THEM RIGHT AWAY AND THEY WOULD GET IT RIGHT IN. ON THE ELECTRICAL - THE DRIVER WINDOW BUTTON STICKS AND WINDOW WILL GO UP AND DOWN ON IT'S OWN UNTIL YOU GET THE BUTTON UN-STUCK -- THIS IS ALSO BEING REPAIRED BY THE DEALER HOWEVER THEY HAD TO ORDER PARTS .. WHEN THEY COME IN IS TO BE DETERMINED. *TT |
