The start/stop accumulator endcap may have missing bolts.

Risk: Missing bolts on the start-stop accumulator endcap could result in a transmission oil leak and may progress to a loss of propulsion, increasing the risk of a crash. A transmission fluid leak in the presence of an ignition source may increase the risk of fire.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2020 Buick Enclave, Cadillac XT5, Cadillac XT6, Chevrolet Traverse, and GMC Acadia vehicles.

The diffuser component of the Roof-Rail Air Bag (RRAB) inflator may not have been properly crimped to the inflator and could separate from the inflator during air bag deployment.

Risk: If the diffuser separates from the inflator during deployment, RRAB performance may be degraded, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.

POWER TRAIN

I purchased a 2010 Buick Enclave from a dealer who did not disclose any major issues with the vehicle. After purchase, I began experiencing significant problems while driving, including difficulty shifting, loss of power, and unstable handling. Concerned for my safety, I took the Buick to a mechanic for inspection. The mechanic verified that: •The wrong transmission had been installed in the vehicle, causing unsafe shifting and performance issues. •The driveshaft was malfunctioning, which affects the stability and control of the SUV. •No warning or check engine lights were on •CV axel bolts were zip tied closed Because of these defects, the mechanic told me the vehicle is not safe to drive. These problems were never disclosed to me at the time of sale, and I would not have purchased the vehicle had I known.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

Super Cruise system malfunctioned and is available for inspection. The vehicle came close to colliding with a guardrail as explained below. Since I believe the issue is not with the vehicle itself, but with Road Information used by Super Cruise, I have reported this to GM Customer Service but not to a dealer. Monday August 25, 2025 Canada – Nova Scotia and New Brunswick While driving on Super Cruise (SC) at 75 MPH in the right lane of a 4 lane freeway (2 lanes each direction), three times the vehicle attempted to enter a non-existent right lane, driving onto the right shoulder and heading for a guardrail. In each case SC warned me of the lane change with normal alerts of seat vibration, right turn signal activation and the DIC display showing an image of a right lane, in green, indicating the lane was safe to enter. However, in each case there was only a partial lane or no lane at time the vehicle crossed the white line. I was alert, and surprised of its action which I did not initiate; and before taking control I waited about 3 seconds to see if SC would stop the maneuver and return to the proper lane. But in each case the vehicle entered the shoulder and appeared to continue, getting close to a guardrail. •The 1st incident occurred on Nova Scotia Hwy 104 at exit 29 where the vehicle attempted to enter the entrance lane at the point where it ended, at 9 AM ADT. •The 2nd incident occurred on New Brunswick Hwy 2 at exit 211 where the vehicle attempted to enter the entrance lane at the point where it ended, at 12 PM ADT. •The 3rd incident occurred again on New Brunswick Hwy 2, at exit175 where the vehicle attempted to enter the exit lane at the point where it ended at, 12:30PM ADT. Weather was sunny and dry with good visibility. Traffic was extremely light. I have since driven on SC approximately 400 miles without incident. And since most of my driving is on freeways, I have probably driven on Super Cruise for over 4,000 miles without incident.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I purchased my vehicle in 2020. In 2022 I experienced an issue where my car stopped in the middle of the road without warning. Despite several attempts to try and move the vehicle off of the road the police were notified and my vehicle was towed. The vehicle gave an error code that conditions not met for driving. One office tried to put the vehicle in neutral but the wheels locked and the shifter was locked as well. The battery has been replaced 3 different times since I have owned the vehicle. A mechanic friend of mine (who is a trainer for GMC) hooked his computer up to it and found no issues. He did find a loose wire which he the reconnected. I was able to drive my car for 6 months before the same thing happened, same situation the vehicle just stopped in the middle of the road only this time I couldn't turn the vehicle off, we had to manually disconnect the battery and again the police came out due to traffic hold up. My car was towed twice afterwards as I could get the car running for a few minutes before another error. To date my car has been sitting in my driveway since March of this year, this time it won't hold a charge and will not even start. Im not sure if this is an engine or an electrical issue. I did call 2 Buick dealerships that told me that it would take about 5 hours to diagnose the issue where I would be charged per hour at the mechanic hourly rate. At this point I think my vehicle needs to be recalled, even if I could get it repaired I dont feel safe driving it. Thankfully it stopped on a minor freeway and no major incidents occurred.

Wednesday August 6th 2025, I was coming home from work, the low engine compression and engine light came on the car was shaking and I lost power on a busy road, I had to pull it off the road quickly before I lost all power. I stayed there for a few minutes, then turned the car back on to retreat to a safer spot, I then waited for my husband to bail me out, we checked the oil on the dipstick, there was minimal oil on it. We added 1 quart of oil, then the lights went off, all seemed fine. August 23rd 2025, I was driving my car and the same thing happened car lit up with low engine compression and engine light came on car was shaking, I shit the car off. we added 1quart of oil. But the engine light stayed on after about 30 min. I shut the car off. The engine light went off after I shut the car off.
