See #19-NA-206 (through DTC B000A may not be set!). Caused by poor design of shift position switches!

Possibly the electronic break module not working properly and an update needed along with some parts. Recently the break valve was replaced because the break assist failed.

It was hard to keep it in my lane. Had to have it towed by AAA. Took to my mechanic and he said it was the electric belt drive rack &pinion steering. He told me there was a recall on it. When I checked I was told that my vin # was not included. I think it should have been because its the same problem.it is not safe to drive. https://plaincars.com/make/buick-regal https://plaincars.com/make/buick-regal#complaint-2060383 Tue, 28 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT When i turn the car off the key will not allow me to remove it from ignition to the proper position to remove the key. This is a safety hazzard. I have to mess with the brakes, steering wheel and parking console and keep starting and turning off the car to get key removed. The dealer said they could not locate the problem however several of your other GM vehicles are having this issue. Please as
