BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW. HAVE HAD INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS WITH ELECTRIC WINDOWS NOT OPERATING. IN JUNE, DRIVERS WINDOW FELL DOWN AND WOULD NOT CLOSE. MECHANIC REPLACED ENTIRE WINDOW MECHANISM.

1999 BUICK CENTURY- LITHONIA, GA
I HAVE A 1999 BUICK CENTURY , I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HAVE A RADIATOR FLUSH AND WAS ADVISED THAT I COULDN'T HAVE THIS JOB PERFORMED DUE TO A LEAK OR CRACK IN THE INTAKE GASKET. AT THIS TIME I WAS VERY SURPRISE TO SEE THE COMPLAINTS AND THERE IS NO RECALL. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS THAT NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR AND SHOULD NOT BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CONSUMER TO REPLACE. THIS SHOULD'VE BEEN DONE BY GENERAL MOTORS. *NM
