BUICK Complaints

2001 BUICK PARK AVENUE. CONSUMER REQUEST ANY RECALLS ON VEHICLE WITH STEERING PROBLEMS. *TGW

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 BUICK RENDEZVOUS. THE CONTACT STATED AS SHE WAS DRIVING AT 40MPH THE LIGHTS FOR THE ENTIRE BRAKE SYSTEM CAME ON, THE ANTI LOCK BRAKE LIGHT, TRACTION LIGHT AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THIS ALSO CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STALL. THE CONTACT CALLED ONSTAR WHICH PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND INFORMED HER TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR THEM TO REPAIR IT. THE DEALER KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR THREE DAYS AND REPAIRED IT. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN HOME, AFTER A COUPLE DAYS THE FAILURE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON . THE GM MANUFACTURER WAS CALLED AND THEY STATED THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,130.

C-COMPLAINT #10315355. I HAVE THE SAME POWER STEERING PROBLEM. I PURCHASED MY 2010 BUICK LACROSSE ON DEC 5TH. 2009 2-WEEKS LATER IT WAS MAKING NOISE WHILE TURNING. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THE CAR IS BRAND NEW NOT TO WORRY, THE NOISE GOT LOUDER TURNED OUT THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING FLUIDS. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. 3/WEEKS LATER I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE MY POWER STEERING LOCKED (NO FLUIDS) THEY REPLACED MY WHOLE POWER STEERING RACK & PINION. I WAS TOLD THEY FORGOT TO SEALED THE END. I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME NOISE AND STILL WORKING WITH THE DEALER TRYING TO FIX AND TO FIND THE PROBLEM. I AGREED 100% ABOUT THE MIRRORS SAME WITH THE GAS/BRAKE PEDALS. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE POWER STEERING. *TR

I HAVE AN 08 BUICK LUCERNE CXL UNDER WARRANTY. AT TIMES THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS ARE SO DIM YOU CANNOT READ THE PANEL WHEN THE SUN SHINES ON THEM A BIT. I TOOK IT TO DEALER AND THEY REPLACED PANEL LIGHT. NO HELP. THEY SAID BUICK WILL NOT HELP THEM. TOOK IT BACK AND EXPLAINED PROBLEM AND THEY SAID YES, YOU AND A THOUSAND OTHERS. I CONTACTED BUICK DIVISION AND THEY FILE MY EMAIL AND GIVE ME A LONG NUMBER. DEALER AGREES IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM. WHEN DRIVING IN MOUNTAINS I WANT TO KNOW MY SPEED, GEAR I'M IN ETC. IT DON'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME SO I AM SURE THERE IS A SIMPLE FIX. A SWITCH OR COMPUTER OR SOMETHING SIMILIAR. THANKYOU. *TR

I OWN A 2004 BUICK LESABRE. THE SPEEDOMETER AND GAS GAUGE DOESN'T WORK AND IS DANGEROUS DRIVING SINCE I DON'T KNOW HOW FAST I AM GOING. ARE THERE ANY RECALLS WITH BUICK TO GET THIS FIXED SINCE IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO ME AND OTHERS. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR A WHILE. *TR

CARS ENGINE WOULD CUT OFF WHEN USING EITHER TURN SIGNAL. ALL DASH LITES WOULD MOMENTARILY COME ON,OR JUST AIR BAG LITE WOULD COME ON BEFORE STALLING. REPLACED IGNITION SWITCH TO CORRECT. MANY OTHER REGAL CUSTOMERS HAVE COMPLAINED ON-LINE,NOTHING DONE ABOUT IT!!! VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION!!!!. *TR

SPEED IN SPEEDO IMPOSSIBLE TO READ DAY OR NIGHT. SPEEDO CURRENTLY IN KILOMETERS AND WE TRAVEL ALOT IN THE USA MPG ARE SHOWN IN THE SPEEDO BUT BECAUSE OF LIGHTING AND VERY FAINT PRINT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO READ THE MPH SPEED. I WENT INTO A CORNER TOO FAST BECAUSE I COULD ONLY GUESS THE SPEED. DEALER ONFORMS ME THERE IS NO EXPECTED FIX. MUST WE KILL SOMEONE TO GET AN IMPORTANT FIX OR EVEN CONSIDERED. *TR

I PULLED UP TO THE BACK OF THE BUILDING WHERE I WORK TO PARK. AS I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR TO BRAKE, THE CAR SHOT FORWARD OUT OF CONTROL. PUTTING BRAKES TO THE FLOOR DID NOT STOP IT. THE BUILDING STOPPED IT. WHEN I BACKED AWAY, THE CAR SHOT BACKWARD OUT OF CONTROL AND STOPPED WHEN IT HIT A STORAGE UNIT. THE LOCAL BUICK DEALER CONDUCTED A THOROUGH INSPECTION OF THE 2006 BUICK LUCERNE AND COULD NOT FIND OUT WHAT CAUSED THE ACCIDENT. *TR

ALL FOUR POWER WINDOWS HAVE FAILED ONE BY ONE. WON'T STAY UP. SEATS ARE BEING RUINED BY RAIN / SNOW. NO SECURITY WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED. *TR

MY 2005 BUICK TERRAZA HAD DEVELOPED PROBLEMS WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT COMING ON WARNING TO HAVE IT SERVICED. THE DEALER PUT IT ON HIS COMPUTER AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AFTER THEY REPLACED THE TRACTION CONTROL MODULE. THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN WITHIN A WEEK. AFTER THE LIGHT CAME ON WITHIN A FEW MILES THE BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY SLAMMED ON SLOWING THE VAN CONSIDERABLY. IT HAPPENED AT LEAST 4 MORE TIMES BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICING. AFTER SEVERAL HOURS I WAS TOLD IT WAS PROBABLY THE ABS SYSTEM HAD FAILED AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE IT. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM BEFORE BUT WANTED TO BRING IT TO YOUR ATTENTION IN CASE IT MIGHT HAPPENED TO SOMEONE ELSE. *TR
