I pulled into a parking space and stopped. i took my foot off the break and the car lurched forward, running into a wooden rail fence. the fence which was old, was knocked down. it all happened so quickly, i wasn't sure if i had hit the accelerator. two days later i made a normal stop in traffic. after breaking, the car lurched forward. i pushed on the break pedal to stop the car, before it could hit the car in front of me. this time i was sure my foot had not hit the gas pedal. i am now giving the car extra breaking distance. in either case, i didn't notice if the tachometer increased rpm or not, though with the sudden acceleration rpm must have increased.
Tl* the contact called on behalf of his child who owns a 2013 buick regal. while driving, the contact's daughter noticed debris on the roadway. she stopped the vehicle and the e-assist function activated. after the debris was removed from the road, the accelerator pedal was depressed, but the vehicle failed to respond. the vehicle was taken to vyletel volkswagen buick gmc (40555 van dyke ave, sterling heights, mi 48313, (586) 977-2800) where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 165,000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 buick regal. while the driver attempted to parallel park, the vehicle accelerated without warning and crashed into two parked vehicles. the air bags did not deploy. a police report was filed. there were no injuries reported. the vehicle was damaged and was driven to the contact's residence. the vehicle was later taken to the dealer (dalessio chevrolet buick in boonton, nj, 973-334-2000) where the technician was unable to diagnose the failure. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that it was an unknown issue. the vehicle was repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 40,000.
Codes present in computer are p1101 air intake performance, p0101 mass air flow circuit a failure. the car has reduced power and surging during acceleration. stumbling at start up. the vehicle's turbo wastegate fails to close before 3,500 rpm therefore causing a severe spool time on turbocharger the manufacture is unable to repair as per the 4 months the car has been being diagnosed and finally the service manager has admitted they are unable to repair the vehicle. corporate gm in involved along with field technicians. since the vehicle has been returned to me still failing now has active codes for u0100 lost communication with ecm, u0140 lost communication with body control module, u0128 lost communication with parking brake module, u0073 communication bus a off, u0101 lost communication with transmission control module since the can-bus is failing the car is now trying to stall intermittently while driving any speed.
I have a buick power add on system that is 50 state carb legal called the stage one kit offered by gm the kit consists of an air intake and a software calibration. among all the issues i have been having with the car their final solution was to install the oem calibration and fuel tables but leave the the stage one kit installed. i believe this makes my car non-50 state emissions compliant. part number for stage kit is 12653664. the isntallation manual specifically mentions not driving without the calibration update from the dealer. i have no way of putting it back in.
