April 7, 2020 I am writing to you today to shed some light on how dire a situation GM buick has put me in with regard to a lack of a resolution regarding my 2019 buick. General motors has been unable to produce an airbag part #84548108 for my 2019 buick envision premium since november 27, 2019. My car was t-boned on the passenger side of my 2019 buick by another driver while I was traveling on a main road. He was issued a ticket for failure to yield.
While driving the vehicle, the service "brake assist" light came on. I put my foot on the brake and had no brakes, then had limited brakes when slowly pumping then pedal went to the floor. That warning went off and the malfunction indicator lamp came on. I then had about 85% brakes.this has happened three times. The dealer and GM cannot find the problem. The first time I was on a highway.

While driving in cruise control between 35 to 40 MPH, going up a small incline, the engine bogs down and the vehicle rattles. I have had the vehicle checked out 5 times by different dealers and their conclusion was that this is a normal condition. The transmission shifts into the highest gear for fuel economy. I do not believe buick would make a vehicle that rattles at 35 to 40 MPH. Going into manual 5th gear stops the rattling, but that should not be the solution.

The vehicle was taken to the local dealer pointe GMC located at 91 n virginia ave route 130, penns grove, nj 08069, who ordered a replacement part to repair the vehicle.
