2007 BUICK LUCERNE Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 BUICK LUCERNE. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE POWER STEERING FAILED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. ONE INJURY WAS SUSTAINED, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

ON THIS DATE I HAD TO TAKE THE CAR TO TRIO TIRE, THE LOCAL AUTO REPAIR STORE TO CORRECT A FLAT TIRE. AFTER SEVERAL TESTS, I WAS TOLD IT WAS A RIM FLAT DUE TO THE DETERIORATION OF THE CHROME WHEELS ON THE CAR. A BEAD SEALER WAS MADE ON THE RIM TO SEAL THE TIRE. ON 12/23/10, MILEAGE WAS 37415,ANOTHER RIM FLAT WAS REPAIRED AT THE BURNS BUICK. ALL FOUR TIRES WERE RESEALED. I WAS TOLD AT THAT TIME THIS WAS A CONSTANT PROBLEM WITH THE SAME CHROME WHEELS, BUT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED AND ON 6/20/2013 I REPLACED ALL FOUR TIRES WITH NEW MICHELIN P235/55R17 WHICH MATCHED THE ORIGINAL TIRES FOR THIS CAR. ON 6/30/2014 TRIO TIRE HAD TO REMOVE "HEAVY CORROSION ON RIGHT REAR RIM" AND RECOMMEND REPLACING RIMS AS THEY DETERIORATED SUBSTANTIALLY. THE COST OF NEW RIMS IS PROHIBITIVE AND DOES NOT DISMISS THE SAME EVENTS OCCURRING AGAIN. WITHIN 2 1/2 YEARS MY RIMS HAVE DISSOLVED CAUSING A POTENTIAL HAZARD WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. I REQUEST YOU INVESTIGATE THESE POORLY MADE RIMS AND DECLARE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE DIES. *TR

SINCE I HAVEN'T BEEN KEEPING MY CAR IN A GARAGE...WATER HAS LEAKED INTO MY TRUNK AND HAS RUSTED THE SPARE TIRE AND ALL THE PARTS TO CHANGE THE TIRE. WATER HAD FILLED UP THE HOLDING PLACE FOR SPARE TIRE. I DON'T USE MY TRUNK THAT MUCH AND BY THE TIME I SAW IT MILDEW SMELL THROUGHOUT THE CAR. BEEN BUSTING MY BUTT TRYING TO CLEAN IT UP. I THINK I HAVE FIGURED OUT THAT THE WATER HAS BEEN GETTING THROUGH THE BACK LIGHT FIXTURES DOWN INTO THE TRUNK. *TR
