ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
This is my 2nd complaint regarding this car. On, 11/5/22, I was making a left hand turn on a highway, and heard a humming sound, that was elevating like the sound of an airplane. At first I thought it was coming from the music that was playing. I turned it down and the noise was still there. The screen then went black and had red writing on it. I have to have one set of gasses to drive and another pair to see up close. My GPS talks thru the screen and started talking, because I was turning, and I was unable to change glasses quickly enough to see what it said. I did report it to one of the owners of the dealership at the time, but received no answer back. when I went to have the oil changed recently and have the heated seat modules installed, I asked them to pull up the codes, to see if it would show what happened. The service guy told me that when that happened it was because the car had lost communication with the computer. He gave me a copy of the codes list, but I'm not sure if it is a complete list or not

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
New Buick Envision 2022 has ongoing engine and powertrain issues. Vehicle has been returned to the dealer service department for squeaking sounds coming from the engine when manually turning car off, coolant smell coming from engine and loud whistling sound when accelerating in speed. Symptoms occur when engine is warmed up and driven for a period of time. Since purchasing the vehicle on October 15, 2022, it has been in service for approximately 72 days - with stated repairs, per the dealer - turbo hose replacement followed by the replacement of the turbo. Picked car up on February 1, 2023 after being in service for 54 days - took the vehicle 90 miles out of town and the engine squeaking/squealing sounds are just as prevalent and consistent, and can still smell coolant. The vehicle engine issues are a safety issue. No consumer should have to endure the immeasureable stress and inconvenience of buying a brand new vehicle with these maintenance issues, let alone any issues at all. The car now has approximately 2700 milles on it.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Potential Consequences:
Car applied emergency braking when it should not have (and could have caused an accident)! Details: Driving approx 20 mph in traffic on highway in Houston. Approx 3-4 car lengths behind vehicle in front of me. There were cars to the left and right of us, .. they were staying within their lanes. For no apparent reason, the automatic braking system applied the brakes. The four of us in the car were jerked forward. Luckily the driver behind us was not tail-gating, or we would have been rear-ended. Note: This was a National rental car I had in Houston this past weekend. Nonetheless, I want to report this as this apparent software and/or sensor bug seems like a major safety risk to me. I tried to find a way to report this to Buick too, but they don't make it easy to find a way to report a safety complaint : (

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
My vehicle still has a delay or hesitation with the shifting of gears while driving, causing a loss of power. At random times the vehicle has lost power while driving. Additionally, when the vehicle is turned off, there is a loud noise (knocking) coming from the front of the vehicle. Also, while driving there has been a burning smell. The vehicle is again scheduled for repair of the persistent issues that GM-certified specialists say the issues could not be duplicated. Recently the infotainment center blacked out after being the software updated. The screen produced issues with a variation of colors which disabled the use of the infotainment for several hours with the screen frozen. This is my second report of the same concerns with the same vehicle reported on 2/22/2022 as this vehicle is only six months young. The vehicle was inspected by GM's branding inspector in April of 2022. GM informed me that they did not find any issues at that time, but offered a settlement of repairs of 50,000 rewards points unbeknownst to me. As of June, GM offered another settlement offer of repairs only. However, GM has stated there are no issues. A lemon law warranty claim will be submitted.

As of June, GM offered another settlement offer of repairs only. However, GM has stated there are no issues. A lemon law warranty claim will be submitted.

Defect Description:
EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:INFOTAINMENT
Potential Consequences:
My vehicle still has a delay or hesitation with the shifting of gears while driving, causing a loss of power. At random times the vehicle has lost power while driving. Additionally, when the vehicle is turned off, there is a loud noise (knocking) coming from the front of the vehicle. Also, while driving there has been a burning smell. The vehicle is again scheduled for repair of the persistent issues that GM-certified specialists say the issues could not be duplicated. Recently the infotainment center blacked out after being the software updated. The screen produced issues with a variation of colors which disabled the use of the infotainment for several hours with the screen frozen. This is my second report of the same concerns with the same vehicle reported on 2/22/2022 as this vehicle is only six months young.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The contact owns a 2022 Buick Envision. The contact stated that the vehicle was parked in the garage while he was working in the yard with the vehicle fob in his pocket. The contact stated as he walked into the garage, he noticed that the vehicle was running on its own. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact sat in the driver's seat, put his seatbelt on, depressed the brake pedal, pushed the turn off button and the vehicle turned off. The contact stated that the fob alone could not start the vehicle as the vehicle was designed to only start when he got in the driver seat, locked the driver's door, put his seatbelt on, and pushed the start button while in possession of the fob. The contact also attempted to start the vehicle with the fob alone several times to determine whether the fob alone could start the vehicle, but he was not successful. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 1,415.
