 While driving, air bag, security, and service vehicle soon sensor lights come on and stay on - air conditioner quits working, windows won't roll down, and doors don't unlock when car is stopped and put in park...heads-up display shows check gauges warning...gauges readings - battery state????, coolant temp ????, oil pressure ????, oil life index ????...light showing what gear vehicle is in goes out. i've had vehicle to dealer 8 times in past yr. and issued 2 complaints with buick customer service with no resolution. checked by 2 dealers - problem going on for over 3 yrs. and getting worse. dealer has contacted tech support at buick but they cannot resolve the problem either. *tr

 I haven't had an earth shattering event yet but my problem is electrical so its only a matter of time before something bad happens . during normal operation everything electrical shuts down(headlights, taillights,dashboard lights,radio etc.). the car will then jerk as if it has stalled, the warning lights come on then go back off and the car resumes running normally. the vehicle gives no code while hooked to a diagnostic device and the dealership can't fix it until something breaks. *nm
