I would be driving then radio would blink off and the steering would lose power but the car does not shut off. Radio will come back on and then able to steer again. Ac blower is stop or get low. Lights will blink dim on dash and headlights.I took it to the shop and they can’t find the problem. The car shop googled this and a lot of Buick Veranos have this same problem but can’t find a solution. I need answers because its dangerous to drive and loose steering. This has happened over 6 times in less than a month
Car keeps stalling and the service power steering warning comes on the dash as well as the service air bag. Then the car speed drops to around 20 mph and won’t go any faster and then when you stop at a stop sign or something the car acts like it doesn’t want to go
The contact owns a 2014 Buick Verano. The contact stated that after his daughter started the vehicle and attempted to shift into drive, the gear selector briefly failed to move into drive. Upon shifting into drive, the contact stated that while his daughter was driving at an undisclosed speed, she became aware that the electronic power steering was not functioning properly, requiring an increased effort to maneuver the vehicle, prompting her to discontinue driving the vehicle. The power steering warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed a failure with the gear selector lever. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 100,000.
The power steering indicator will show up and shut the car off while driving. You will be unable to stop your car.
My car just shut off while I’m driving
Vehicle started flashing multiple indicators on the dashboard, including those related to the charging system. Radio screen went off and then the power steering lost electrical boost while turning the steering wheel. Radio screen came back on its own but then it started cycling among its options (AM, FM, Bluetooth, etc) until settling in FM radio. Second occurrence was similar, although with different manifestations with the dashboard indicators although most concerning behavior dealt with the steering loosing boost almost causing an accident. Have reconnected the battery (changed about 4 months ago, currently showing 12.38V) and retighten the connections to the poles. Retightened the cables going to ground (they were NOT loose).
ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS MY CARS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WILL RANDOMLY FADE IN AND OUT AND SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS MOST EVIDENT IN THE POWER STEERING, RADIO CONTROLS AND AIR CONDITIONING. I HAVE TESTED AND REPLACED BOTH THE BATTERY IN THE ALTERNATOR. I HAVE ALSO BROUGHT THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP SO THEY COULD RUN A DIAGNOSTICS. NOTHING CAN BE IDENTIFIED AS A CENTRAL PROBLEM, BUT THE ISSUE STILL CONTINUES. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I LOOSE MY POWER STEERING WHILE TURNING. THIS HAPPENS ON SHORT TRIPS AND LONG TRIPS AND MANY TIMES WHILE ON THE FREEWAY AT HIGH SPEEDS.
2/15/2020 AS I WAS LEAVING WORK AT 10:08A.M AS SOON AS I PULLED OUT OF PARKING LOT AND STARTED TO GO MY CAR SHUT DOWN. I WAS GOING PROBABLY 23 MPH: THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED, PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR, EVERYTHING CUT OFF. THANK GOD I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT IN PARK. I WAS BLESSED TO NOT BE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND COULD COAST TO THE CURB AS I FOUGHT WITH THE STEERING WHEEL TO GET OUT OF THE STREET. I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO START IT AND IT WOULDN'T, I GOT NOTHING, THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. THE KEYS WOULDN'T COME OUT BUT I FIGURED IT OUT. HUSBAND CAME, TOOK OUT BATTERY AND TOOK IT TO GET CHECKED OUT, IT WAS 100%. I CALLED A ROADSIDE SERVICE TO HAVE IT TOWED TO CHEVY, WHERE I BOUGHT IT IN 11/2015, BUT WHEN MY HUSBAND WAS RECONNECTING THE BATTERY THE CAR CAME TO LIFE. I CALLED AND CANCELLED THE TOWI, DROVE HER HOME NO PROBLEM; HOWEVER, SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG 😕THIS CARE IS GETTING TRADED SOON NO MORE BUICKS FOR ME🙋
I'VE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE A YEAR SOME CHANGE. PARKING BREAK LIGHT COMES WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF AND GOES AWAY ONCE I PUT IT DRIVE OR REVERSE. POWER STEERING LOCKS ON ME WHEN TURNING ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH IS SO DANGEROUS. ALSO SO MANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE COMPUTER IN THE VEHICLE THAT CAUSE THE DOOR TO LOCK AND UNLOCK ON ITS OWN WHEN I TRY TO PUT ON MY FOG LIGHTS THE ENGINE MAY REV UP
