"takata recall" while driving and approaching a stop sign on a city street in town, the car started aggressively shaking and several lights turned on - service stabilitrack, engine power reduced mode and the check engine light- thankfully we were able to safely pull off the road as the car would not exceed 25mph. After the first time we took it in and they flushed the throttle body. Less than 2 moths later the exact same problem occurred while driving in town. Took it back in and they completely replaced the throttle body. Here we are a few months later and now the car will not even start with the same icons appearing on the dash! If this were to happen on the freeway at 65 MPH and it kick me down to 25 MPH that is a serious accident waiting to happen.

I put key into ignition and turned toward the start position and key went about halfway and stopped and all lights and dashboard went black,all electrical power went off. The car would not give me the key back. It was stuck in the ignition for about 1 1/2 hours until ers arrived. I tried pressing the brake and turning the steering wheel but it would still not give me the key. Meanwhile, the dash board starting flashing on and off and I heard a constant clicking noise. I called emergency roadside assistance and they came and gave me a boost and car started right up with no problems. My battery and alternator are completely fine.

Put key into key switch and turn toward start position and key went about halfway and stopped and all lights and dashboard went black,all electrical power went off. Finially after moving steering wheel and moving key back and forth was able to pull key out of ignition switch.then when I put key back into ignition switch and tried to start car all I heard was a click,click so battery was dead,called ers and they came and gave me a boost and car started right up with no problems and service rep. Checked battery and alternator and they were operating fine.called my dealership where I bought car and told them what happened but they never had a problem like that so they were no help.I called g.m. And talked to them but they never heard of that problem either so here I am with a car that has a problem which no one has heard of..

Purchased 4/2010 1 at a red light, car idled really rough, then all of the dash lights came on. I drove straight to the dealership. They checked it out and said I needed a new fuel pump. I had about 47,000 miles. 2. Oil consumption - the first time this happened I was hearing a funny noise when I turned left coming from the engine. My boyfriend checked the oil the next morning to find no oil on the dipstick. We put in 2 qts then when the dealer ship opened I took it in. They told me they could not find any internal or external leaks so bring in weekly for oil consumption test (I was about 1500 miles since my oil change that was done at the same time the fuel pump was replaced) drove out of town to visit family (about 2000 miles after oil change) after driving 200 miles heard the noise again checked the oil.......2 qts low. Added oil and took to local dealership. No problems found related to oil, but did find another alert that needed to be completed when I got home related to the water pump tensioner. Gm customer service again , but only was told to wait until my next scheduled oil change and start consumption tests again. 3. I pod jack - worked fine for the first 2 years, but then would cause all center console lights to go out, could not operate radio or A/C. 4. Stalling - I have only had this problem once but it was as I was turning left across 3 lanes of traffic! 5. Jerky transmission - the first time this issue happened it jerked so hard I thought I hit something. Took it to the dealership and was told, like others it was the transmission "learning" me. The transmission codes were updated and problem only occurs occasionally 6. Drivers seat lumbar support airbladder - has popped and had to be replaced two times.
