 Description of the problemInce i have purchased this vehicle i have had issue after issue with trim, abs, stability track, heating system, transmission, and wheel bearings. I have had the stability track fixed twice, transmission was leaking (covered under a recall). Wheel bearings in rear both sides have been replaced before 80000 miles. Wiring harness to wheels, the dealer ship had to splice ( i still cant see how wiring harness is not a covered component. For a manufacture based out of a state that has snow, and to provide a vehicle that has a stability sensor that gets dirty because of salt that will error is beyond my comprehension. Same for the default wheel bearings one winter in michigan and they had to be replaced (also not a covered feature). Trim that blows off on the express way. I lost my window trim and the front black cover. Funny how the 2015 models have a screw in them but nothing for us poor 2014 owners that had an issue. I can purchase a new one at 60. 00 (really its plastic). Abs comes on every time i have an issue with the stability track, which is every winter it gets dirty. Engine light on now so i cant auto start the car, more than likely that will be caused by the glamorous aux battery that was engineered for the lovey auto stop feature that i have no control over. Have appointment with dealership to be ripped off some more.... Appt showed a p011 code, second time in shop to have it fixed. Update: months later, abs on the driverside hub is now out. Yes you guessed it the p011 engine code is back. (third time). Fixed twice at the shop. When is someone going to make gm wake up and fix these issues. It just like my key issue with my 2004 impala . Car stalls boggs down at 70 mph.
