Problem overview

Some Buick Verano owners report experiencing shaking when shifting into 2nd gear, which may be attributed to transmission issues, including low or contaminated transmission fluid. These problems can hinder the transmission's performance, making it difficult to shift gears smoothly. Owners are advised to check the transmission fluid level to ensure it is adequate. Additionally, some Buick Verano owners report issues with the passenger side blind spot alert failing to function, potentially due to a malfunction in the blind spot warning system or a faulty bumper module. If the dash warning light indicates that the system requires service, it is recommended to have it checked by a professional for proper diagnosis and repair. Addressing these issues promptly is crucial for maintaining the vehicle's safety and functionality.
