My altenator stopped working and after it was replaced my fuse box would not read nor would my car crank. So I had it towed to a buick dealership where I thought all of my problems would be solved. They replace my fuse box with a used one because the box has been discontinued this was in april 2017 it is now may 2017 and I've had a diagnostic tes ran on it because my fans stopped working causing my nothstar motor to overheat. The diagnostic determined that fuse box is what's causing all of my problems. Every code LED straight to that same fuse box. My vehichel was on and stationary when all of a sudden my power steering connector cracked and all of my fluids started to leak out from a result of overheating and the connectors being made of plastic and basically wearing from the heat.

Heated/cooled seats stopped working. Button on door lights up like they are on, but the heat/cool does not actually turn on. Turns out problem is with connector at control module under passenger seat. Connector is partially melted with black burn marks. This issue appears to be common on numerous gm vehicles (buick lucerne, cadillac dts, etc...) fuse does not blow, possible fire issue?

I am writing in regards to the gm recall #14299. Ignition issue. We received a letter from buick/gm the end of september. I called the local buick gmc dealer to set up an appt to get it fixed, and she said I would have to call back in 2-3 weeks because the parts were backordered. Last week on the national news gm was complaining because people weren't getting this problem taken care of and they wanted to offer gift cards. I called the local dealer again and now the parts are in but they are booked until december 15 of this year because now everyone wants to get their vehicles fixed. So I have to go a little over another month before I can get this fixed? Not real happy about how this was handled. If there's a recall, the manufacturer should have the parts in stock before a letter is sent out telling up to get our vehicle fixed right away.
