What owners wrote
Approached a curve in road at approximately 50MPH, took foot off the gas and accelerator did not disengage and continued at full speed so fast could not negotiate the curve and went off the curve and crashed into ravine below. This occured one day after the car had been serviced by a GM garage on 1/31/17 about a complaint about the gas pedal.
Car while driving suddenly sputters and stalls. I get an error message saying to check airbags. The locks on the doors will unlock and lock and unlock an lock multiple times while driving. Check engine light comes on. When I pump gas the car wont start immediately it sputters and clicks every time.
