EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHILE DRIVING OR SITTING ALL THE INSTRUMENT PANEL/DASH AND HEADLIGHT/DAYTIME DRIVING LIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY EITHER FLASH OFF AND ON OR SHUT OFF FOR SEVERAL SECONDS AND COME BACK ON. THIS PROBLEM HAS BUILT UP OVER TIME AND THE RADIO HAS ALSO STARTED TO ALSO INTERMITTENTLY TURN OFF AND ON CONJUNCTION WITH ALL THE LIGHTING. THIS SEEMS TO OCCUR WHEN EVER THERE IS SOME KIND OF QUICK DRAW OF ELECTRICAL POWER, SUCH AS BRAKING, DOWNSHIFTING OF TRANSMISSION TO ACCELERATE, TURNING ON DEFROSTERS, OR SIMPLY WHILE DRIVING. THIS POWER LOSS ALSO AFFECTS THE CRUISE CONTROL AND WHEN POWER LOSS OCCURS IT WILL DISENGAGE. THIS DISTURBINGLY OCCURS WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND POWER LOSS TO INSTRUMENT PANEL/DASH AND HEADLIGHT LEAVES ME IN COMPLETE DARKNESS FOR SEVERAL MOMENTS AT TIME. I HAVE NOT IDEA HOW FAST I'M GOING OF IF THE ROAD IS STILL IN FRONT OF ME. I NOTICE AN ISSUE WITH THE PREVIOUS BODY STYLE OF LACROSSE BUT NOT MINE. IF THE BATTERY IS DISCONNECTED FOR SEVERAL HOURS SOME THING OR SOME PROGRAM IS RESET AND THE ISSUE WILL STOP FOR ROUGHLY TWO WEEKS AND THEN START BACK UP, BUT SO FAR THE ISSUE SEEMS TO INTENSIFY UP RESTARTING AFTER THE BATTERY IS DISCONNECTED. THE DRIVETRAIN IS NOT AFFECTED BY THE POWER LOSS AND WILL CONTINUE TO OPERATE DURING THE ILLUMINATION AND INSTRUMENTATION LOSS. THE ISSUE DOES SEEM TO REPEAT MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN IN TOWN WITH THE CONSTANT ACCELERATION AND BRAKING. ON THE INTERSTATE THE ISSUE WILL OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY WHILE CRUISING AND WHEN ACCELERATING OR BRAKING AND IF SOME DEVICE IS ACTIVATED SUCH AS DEFROSTERS, TURN SIGNALS, OR AIR CONDITIONING. WITH THE INTERMITTENT AND SO FAR SHORT NATURE OF THE POWER LOSS, I'M NOT ABLE TO ASCERTAIN IF ANY OTHER SYSTEMS ARE BEING AFFECTED AS OF YET. THE PROBLEM RESEMBLES ALTERNATOR OR BATTERY FAILURE, BUT BOTH WERE REPLACED AT THE ONSET OVER A YEAR AGO. VIDEOS OF THE CLUSTER ARE AVAILABLE BUT TOO LARGE TO ATTACH.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
SERVICE STABILITRAK WARNING COMES ON AS SOON AS WHEELS ARE TURNED AFTER STARTING VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENS BOTH WHEN CAR IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. THIS STARTED OUT HAPPENING VERY OCCASIONALLY, BUT NOW HAPPENS EVERY TIME VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. I CAN DRIVE SEVERAL BLOCKS STRAIGHT ON WITHOUT THE WARNING, BUT AS SOON AS THE WHEELS ARE TURNED, THE WARNING MESSAGE COMES ON, ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL ARE AUTOMATICALLY TURNED OFF. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED AT 70K MILES, THIS STARTED ABOUT 2 MOS AFTER PURCHASE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY DEALERSHIPS THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE WIRING HARNESS TO THE FRONT WHEELS IN THIS VEHICLE, THAT IT'S A "KNOWN ISSUE", AND IS ABOUT $500 PER WHEEL TO FIX. IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, THEN WHY HASN'T BUICK ISSUED A RECALL? I HAVE READ MANY FORUMS ONLINE WHERE PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. NOT SURE WHY THEY AREN'T REPORTING IT TO NHTSA!!! THIS COULD CAUSE ALOT OF ACCIDENTS IF THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL ARE TURNED OFF! ATTACHED PHOTO WAS TAKEN WITH VEHICLE SITTING STILL IN DRIVEWAY, JUST STARTED, NO MESSAGES, TURNED STEERING WHEEL AND THE WARNING LIGHTS THEN LIT UP ON DASHBOARD, TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS TURNED OFF (AS INDICATED BY LIGHTS).
