BUICK Complaints

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY , MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. LUCKILY THE SUNROOF COVER WAS ON AND SUNROOF WAS NOT IN USE. BAD DESIGN? I HAVE BEEN PLANNING ON ANOTHER BUICK , BUT THIS WILL DETER ME AWAY. >1500$ FOR REPAIR.

THIS VEHICLE HAS A RECALL FOR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN SEATS. PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. IT DIED AND THEN CAUGHT FIRE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AND WAS TOTALLED. GM DENIES ALL LIABILITY AND REFUSES TO OFFER ANY COMPENSATION.

ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS- VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN ON ITS OWN. AT RANDOM! WHEN I AM ABLE TO BRING IT BACK UP THE PROBLEM NO LONGER EXIST AND CAN'T BE TRACED. AT RANDOM MY SERVICES LIGHTS POPS ON AND OFF!. EMERGENCY PARKING BREAKS LOCKS ON THEIR OWN AND I CAN'T DRIVE THE CAR PROPERLY. GEARS SHIFT ON THEIR OWN WHICH CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE WINDSHIELD AND BODY.! I WAS DRIVING WHEN THE GEARS SHIFTED. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT WOULDN'T ACCURATE WHEN MY FOOT WAS ON THE GAS.I WAS ROLLING AND BECAUSE MY ACCELERATOR PEDAL WOULDN'T WORK I PULLED OVER TO THE GRAVEL NEXT TO ME VEHICLE AND THE GRAVEL FLEW UP AND BROKE MY WINDSHIELD AND DID A LITTLE BODY DAMAGE. I CONTACTED GM AND ALTHOUGH THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS AND SPECIAL COVERAGES THEY DENIED MY CLAIM AFTER DOING AN CDR REPORT AND I NEVER REPORTED TO BE IN A CRASH!

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE IN THE RAIN, I HAVE NEARLY WRECKED OR CAUSED AN ACCIDENT TO OTHERS DUE TO POOR VISIBILITY OF THE WIPERS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY.

DASH GAUGES, WARNING LIGHTS, & ALARMS, BELLS FLASH ON & OFF AND VEHICLE SUDDENLY RUNS ROUGH. DASH CODES OF ALL SORTS BLINK ON & OFF. NEW BATTERY AND NEW ALTENATOR INSTALLED, PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. THIS HAPPENED FIRST WHEN DRIVING ON HIWAY. AFTER VEHICLE PULLED OFF ROAD AND ENGINE TURNED OFF. THE DASH CODE THEN READ BATTERY ISSUE. WE TRIED TO DRIVE AGAIN BUT NOW VEHICLE OPERATED ROUGHLY AND THERE WAS NO MORE DAYLIGHT. WE HAD VEHICLE TOWED 100 MILES. THEN PAID FOR NEW BATTERY PROBLEM DID NOT CHANGE SO WE HAD A NEW ALTENATOR INSTALLED AFTER HAVING A DIAGNOSTIC TEST ADVISING THE NEED FOR A NEW ALTENATOR. I AM QUITE UPSET BECAUS EI FEEL THAT THERE IS FRAUD ON PART OF SEARS AUTOREPAIR. DIAGNOSTIC SAID ALTENATOR WAS THE PROBLEM. I PAID OVER $450 FOR THAT SERVICE AND ANOTHER $150 FOR THE BATTERY.

THE SUNROOF ON THIS VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED DEFECTIVELY, THERE HAS BEEN MANY PEOPLE ONLINE WHO HAVE A 2008 BUICK ENCLAVE AND HAVE HAD LEAKS TO THEIR VEHICLE. I HAVE CONTACTED GM BUICK WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THE CAR USED AND ADVISED THEM THAT THE SUN ROOF WAS LEAKING, AND THEY DIRECTED ME TO GO TO THEIR DEALERSHIP, WHICH I DID AND THEY CLEANED OUT THE HOSES, BUT UNFORTUNATELY THAT DID NOT REPAIR THE ISSUE, UNBEKNOWNST TO ME THE VEHICLE WAS STILL LEAKING FROM INSIDE AND LEAK INTO THE COMPUTER SYSTEM CAUSING MY CAR TO MALFUNCTION THE COMPUTER SYSTEM IS AMASS, COSTING ME $1,300 TO REPAIR, DUE TO THE AIRBAG MODULE MALFUNCTIONING WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED ACCIDENT AND CAUSE ME TO LOSE MY LIFE WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE AND NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION, I AM ASKING THAT YOU WOULD BE HELD LIABLE FOR THIS ISSUE AND TO REPAIR ANY OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD WITH THE SUNROOF LEAK FOR 2008 MODELS, I'M ASKING TO BE REIMBURSED FOR WHAT I'VE ALREADY PAID, BUICK IS ADVISING ME THAT THEY WILL NOT REIMBURSE ME AND THAT THIS IS NOT A RECALLED ITEM, BUT TO CONTACT YOU ALL TO REPORT IT SO THAT WAY IT COULD BE DOCUMENTED. I CAN BE CONTACTED AT AREA CODE [XXX]. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

WHILE DRIVING ALONG VEHICLE WILL POP UP WITH SERVICE STABILITRACK AND THE PARKING BRAKE LIGHT WILL FLASH ON AND OFF AND CAR WILL JERK FOR ABOUT A MINUTE THEN GOES ALONG BUT LIGHT WON'T STAY ON LONG ENOUGH TO GET CHECKED

FREQUENT MESSAGE APPEARING IN THE MESSAGE CENTER WHICH INDICATES "SERVICE AIR BAGS'. THE AIRBAG SYMBOL IS ALSO LIT AT THE SAME TIME. THE MESSAGE APPEARS AT DIFFERENT TIMES AND WILL REMAIN LIT FOR ABOUT 8 SECONDS. IT HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR WHEN STOPPED, HOWEVER NOT AT ANY SPECIFIC TIME. THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW FROM THE BUICK DEALER IN EL PASO, TEXAS AND HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY TYPE OF COLLISION. AN INTERNET CHECK ON THIS TYPE OF COMPLAINT SHOWS THAT MY VEHICLE YEAR IS PART OF ONGOING PROBLEMS WITH THAT SAME MESSAGE BEING DISPLAYED, HOWEVER MY DEALER INDICATES THAT MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL TO HAVE THAT REPAIRED BY BUICK. IN MY OPINION, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY BUICK. MY VEHICLE HAS 78,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER AND HAS BEEN MAINTAINED BY THE DEALER SINCE IT WENT INTO SERVICE. THIS COMPLAINT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT WHICH SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY BUICK. THIS COMPLAINT WAS FIRST NOTICED AROUND 11-2016 HOWEVER IT WAS DIFFICULT TO CATCH IT WHEN THE MESSAGE WOULD BE DISPLAYED. IT TOOK MONTHS TO NOTICE IT AS IT IS SHOWN IN THE INCLUDED IMAGE SINCE THE VEHICLE WOULD BE IN MOTION AT THE TIME. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO GET MY WIFE TO SNAP A PHOTO OF THE MESSAGE BEFORE IT DISAPPEARED FROM THE DASH BOARD.

CAR HAS 28000 MILES AND ON SOME MANHOLE COVERS, BUMPS AND BRIDGE EXPANSION JOINTS THE REAR END OF THE CAR JUMPS SIDEWAYS

I WENT TO TURN OFF CAR AFTER I PARKED KEY WOULDN'T TURN OFF OR COME OUT OF IGNITION
