What owners wrote
I turned my car on and had both the front and rear defrost. I smelled something funny, so I turned the car off to investigate. I didn't see anything so turned the car back on and pulled back into the driveway and turned it off. Within a minute or two, the entire back driver- side door was in flames. I had to use a fire extinguisher to get rid of the fire.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 buick verano. While driving at any speed, the 2013 buick verano lost power, doors would unlock, then power would come back on and doors would lock. This would happen repeatedly, in addition, the wrench icon illuminated and the failure recurred. George, ut 84790), but the cause of the failure could not be diagnosed. The failure recurred and the vehicle was taken back to the same dealer, but they did diagnose the failure and was electrical. Issues.
