BUICK Complaints

WHEN FIRST STARTING OUT, THE BRAKES STOP SHORT. I HAVE TO BRAKE 3 TIMES SOMEWHERE SAFE IN ORDER TO NOT STOP SHORT IN FRONT OF ANOTHER VEHICLE BY ACCIDENT. I HAD THEM INSPECTED AND THE SERVICE CENTER SAID THEY WERE FINE, THAT'S JUST THE WAY THEY ARE. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IT STOPS SHORT, WHETHER I WANT TO OR NOT. IT HAPPENS WHETHER IT IS RAINING OR NOT, BUT ESPECIALLY DURING RAIN.

A PIECE TO THE FUSE BOX UNDER BACK SEAT HAS MELTED INSIDE OF THE FUSE BOX, WHICH HAS CAUSED THE CAR NOT TO START. THE VEHICLE IS NOW IN FRONT OF MY HOME, SITTING. BUICK HAS NO RECALL BUT YET THIS KEEPS HAPPENING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 BUICK VERANO. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE STALLED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COULTER BUICK (7780 S AUTOPLEX LOOP, TEMPE, AZ 85284, (480) 666-7397) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO SCHEDULE A DIAGNOSTIC APPOINTMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 123,000.

THE DEFROSTERS NEVER WORKED PROPERLY. IT SEEMS MOISTURE IS BEING BROUGHT IN FROM OUTSIDE AND FOGGING UP THE WINDSHIELD. THE VEHICLES POOR DEFROSTERS BECAME A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING THRU THE LAST SNOW STORM. VISIBILITY WAS EXTREMELY POOR. I HAD TO LEAN OVER AND PEAK THRU THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD NEAR THE BOTTOM TO GET MINIMAL SIGHT. LIKE I SAID, IT WAS ALWAYS AN ISSUE, BUT WHEN YOU REALLY NEED DEFROSTERS, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY.

TAKATA RECALL.. ALL OF MY WARNING DASH LIGHTS ARE ON AT TIMES OR THE WHOLE DASH, RADIO AND EVERYTHING GO OUT THEN COMES BACK, THE IGNITION HAS BEEN PAUSING BEFORE IT TURNS OVER, THE FRONT END OF THE CAR RATTLES, ABS, T/C AND AIR BAGS WARNING LIGHTS ARE ALMOST ALWAYS ON.. I HAVE REPLACED 1000.00S OF DOLLARS TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND NOTHING CHANGES. I HAVE REPLACED THE WHEEL HUBS, IGNITION MODULE, THE 700.00 PART FOR THE ECBM, NOTHING CHANGES, I BELIEVE ITS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT NO ONE HAS BEEN TO FIND.
