I have a warning on my dash, Service Brake Assist that comes on and off, but will not stay on. The dealer says they can't identify the problem unless it stays on and then bring it in. I did some research and find a class action complaint suit in 4 different states, of several GM cars manufactured between 2017 - 2020. Mine is a 2019 Buick Envision. The class action suit identifies the Brake Vacuum Pump defect. The defect will be known, when you step on the brake, the pump fails by exploding, and…

My instrument panel cluster went black while the vehicle remained operational. The speedometer, warning lights, warning chimes, PRNDL/gear display, and dashboard are all non-functional. We checked fuses and performed a battery reset. The issue remains unresolved. This creates a significant safety concern, as I have no access to vehicle speed, warning lights, a gear indicator, or safety alerts while driving. I am requesting that this issue be formally documented and investigated as a potential…

Same as in the other two complaints. At one year and approximately 5000 miles I personally did the first oil change. Car was approximately 3 quarts low on oil after draining the oil for the oil change. Filled up to manufacturers recommendation. Two months later and approximately 1000 miles on the car, the car was 1 quart low. GM has a bulletin on this very issue bulletin number 01–0 6–0 1–011N. Started oil consumption test through the dealer. Dealer stated the first remedy is replacement of a…
