The ignition switch was disengaged when the van hit a bump while in motion on a highway. I was able to put it in natural and restart it but it was a very frightening ordeal. This has also happened on streets traveling 30 MPH.

During cruise on highway (I-95 in florida) while on vacation the left rear power sliding door became unlatched and warning chimes sounded repeatedly and interior lights illuminated, this occurred several times again on this trip there was an investigation by the federal safety agency in 2008 report #ea07019 which determined no defect was present which would require a recall. I beg to differ with that assessment there most certainly is a problem here, gm issued tsb #07-08-007 and #07-08-007 a-d which tells dealerships how to repair this problem. Please look into this matter again it is very unsettling to have my kids riding in the rear and having a door unlatch at highway speeds thank you for your time and consideration.

We were pulling into walmart parking lot and hit street bump that turn onto walmart's property and the sudden jerk made the keys pop out of the ignition while the van was in motion. The keys were on the floor but the vehicle was steel in motion. As we parked the vehicle I put the key back into the ignition like nothing ever happened. I turn the van of, then waited a few minute and started the vehicle and behold the key would surely come out. I contacted the dealer sierra chevrolet in bartlet, tn and they checked the vehicle out and said it was a bad cut in the key. That means a bump key would start the vehicle. The ignition switch is faulty, and seeing gm recall list, the buick terraza 05 should be on that list. I'm writing buick/gm with this statement and request.

2005 buick terraza while doors are locked and you are driving down the road. The sliding doors decide to open all on their own. You have to stop the van and shut the doors. With the door buttons are turned off they still open just not as often.

Buick terraza just shuts down while driving (at various speeds) or stopped without warning. Everything shuts down with display stating, "starting disabled, reduced engine power." I must try to get to the side quickly. After about 30 seconds, the van restarts and continues for a while until it does the exact same thing again.
