No Incident

Not sure if this is a safety problem or is just a freak, isolated incident. In either case, I am reporting this since it might impact vehicles other than just my own. I own a 2015 Buick Verano. On Tuesday, April 5, 2022, upon parking my car, I noticed that my driver-€™s door wasn-€™t closing correctly. There was a small gap preventing it from closing flush. Upon inspection, it became apparent what was causing the problem: The door lock striker plate had pulled away from the doorframe post to which it was anchored. It was secured by two Phillips head screws. My attempt to tighten same was for naught, the screws kept spinning. Fortunately, the door lock striker plate was still operable since it hadn-€™t pulled away from the post for more than a fraction of an inch, so my door latch was able to catch on to it, but that fraction of an inch was enough to cause the gap when I closed the door. I took the car the next day to a Buick dealer and they referred me to a nearby body shop. The owner looked at the problem and concurred with my initial assessment. He said that in all his years in the field he had never encountered a problem like that. Fortunately, he was able to get the latch striker to lay flush against the column, but he did say it could happen again. So, coming full circle, as I said up front, I don-€™t know if this is a systemic problem affecting other Buick vehicles from that year, or if it was just an isolate incident. But I guess recall issues have to start somewhere. Rather be safe than sorry, hence my putting this in you court.

The gearshift does not always work you have to wiggle it around to get it to work and the thing that you have to push back is very loose and this just happened lately I'm not sure if there's a recall on it but something needs to be done with it so it's easier to put your car in park

Both side detection sensors of my 2015 Buick Verano are both inoperative in under 5 years after purchasing brand new vehicle. "service side detection system" message persists. GM mechanic said there was water present in mounting brackets for both modules and there is no communication with either one. Car has never been in accidents and service advisor agreed that problem was due to a design flaw. There is no visible damage to indicate a problem, since the sensors are hidden. Sensor module failure seems to be a common occurrence in GM products, since I was told that there was a national shortage on sensor modules and that repair would have to happen in the future. Repair estimated at $1200+. after I expressed my dissatisfaction to the service advisor, I was told that GM was willing to reduce the repair cost by $337. I refused the repair, since I believe this safety equipment failed as a result of the design and should be recalled and repaired by GM.
