2003 Buick Rendevous - Complaint

LOUISVILLE, TENNESSEE -- I bought a 2003 Buick Rendevous and the electrical system is going crazy. The lights air conditioner radio and gauges cut off while I'm driving. I looked on the internet and there are so many complaints about the same problem. I have two children and I am scared to drive my car. People have wrecked because the headlights go out. People have been locked in their cars and there were also times these cars have quit running while going down the interstate. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THEY DO NOT RECALL THESE CARS WHEN SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM!

I don't see how anyone could be locked "in" there car, locked out yes, but locked in?. This the first time I've heard about this problem with this specific vehicle. But upon further review there does seem to be a design flaw in how the wiring is routed under the hood. I found this page
http://home.comcast.net/~thekorpalskis/RVSfix.html

The page explains how and why these vehicles are apparently prone to weird electrical problems. If this is what's causing your problem (it may or may not be) the fix is relatively easy provided none of the wires are actually broken.
