While driving, I went over a bump in the road. The dashboard lights and bell started flashing, and message center said "engine powering down", then immediately said "engine powered off". there was no power steering or brakes. I was able to pull somewhat off the side of the road. I turned the key, and no response. After approx. Five minutes, I tried the key again, and the car started (not smoothly), and was fine. After one week, the same thing happened while driving at approx. 20 mph (Aug 24), and again happened while driving 45 mph (Aug 27). Each time, we were fortunately not around other vehicles. After the second stall, we received a recall notice from GM for the ignition switch. Talked to the recall center, who told us it was not under the recall because we did not know if the key had actually turned off. We had taken all other keys and fobs off the key, but the third incident occurred on August 27. We then took the car to the GM dealer who did a diagnostic check on September 2. he found a loose ground wire, and felt it was fixed. We picked up the car, drove approximately 1.5 miles and the car stalled again. When it started, we drove it back to the GM dealership. It has now been at the GM dealer since September 2. they continue to test drive and run diagnostic checks and nothing shows up. We have contacted GM recall center three times since, and have had no return phone calls.

In August of 2011 I purchased what was supposed to be a certified pre-owned Buick superior Buick. I had numerous problems that I tried to get fixed under warranty(suspension, thermostat, air bags, steering etc.) or good faith (only brakes) just to name a few, and tried to get a refund under my warranty or different car within the first 72 hours/150 miles of resigning my contract and was denied. I made numerous trips to the dealership to get these problems serviced and was told every time that nothing was wrong, they found debris here a screw there, tightened this, blamed it on this etc. They never fixed or replaced anything but a water pump and a couple of electrical bulbs (the same ones). After at least 5 attempts to get it fixed( per laws set forth) I had a couple of face-to- face meetings with the G.M./part owner louis faller. During these meetings, he tells me everything from you got a lemon, that he believed the car was wrecked prior, to that he fired a couple of employees for putting bad cars on his lot and not fixing them properly under warranty, amongst other things. So after no luck with a refund I began to get opinions which uncovered everything from prior damage to several things wrong with the suspension in late 2012 etc. So in late 2013, after all the things progressed to really bad and I got my X-mas bonus I began fixing it and reached out to hendrick corporate. They lied to me and said they would give me at least the money for fixing what I already fixed and that I had to get rest from dealership. They later took it back cause I wasn't signing over no rights because I still had several thousand in damages. So I reached out G.M. customer service and executive branches. They were like automated puppets. Please refer to attachments. The right front bearing, was replaced. There was an issue with the anti-lock brakes the right front strut shield was sticking and making a clicking sound, the tires were cupping, creating a rumbling sound, tie rods needed to be replaced, the pressure line from the powe
