Buick dealer is not honoring a GM service bulletin for my car because my VIN number is not on the list but yet my Car exhibits that we had exact problem that the bulletin is for and they are not even honoring the bumper-to-bumper warranty that I have on the car. And there is a kid to fix it. I have evidence I have video. I have audio of what the car does when it goes in reverse in regards to the Brake recall, but they are forcing me to drive a car that has a brake problem and a service bulletin to make the repair and they are not our honoring either the bumper-to-bumper warranty that I have on the car there’s only about 3700 miles on the car and I owned it for two years

I purchased the car from Enterprise Sales and had it for two years. Just today, the instrument panel remained blank after I started the car. After a few more attempts of starting and stopping the car, the panel remained blank, so I drove home. After 2 hours, I started the car to park it, and the instrument panel returned to normal. I looked it up online and found GM had issued a recall for the 2024 Buick Encore GX for the instrument panel going blank, but when I entered my VIN, it said it was not included in the recall, even though it has the same make, model, year, and malfunction. I would like to have my car included in this recall.

I recently bought this 2024 Buick Encore GX about a week ago and we decided to take a short trip to [XXX], as we were coming back and was driving downhill, we notice the vehicle was pulling to the left side like a strong wind pulling it. The steering wheel became very stiff and unable to pull back towards the driving lane as my daughter was trying to maneuver back, so she finally slowed down all the way to a full stop as the car approached all the way to the left by pulling hard by itself as my daughter was putting her brakes on. We waited for a few minutes as we turned off the vehicle, then after a few minutes she started back and check the steering by turning both ways to the right and lef
