THE AIR BAG HIT THE CONTACT'S ARM AND FACE LEAVING MINOR MARKS AND BRUISES. THE DRIVER DID NOT SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR HIS INJURIES.

FRONT AND REAR BRAKE LINES FAILED LEAVING ME WITH NO BRAKES. I WAS DRIVING AT LOW SPEED. THE REAR BRAKE LINE WAS THE FIRST TO GO. THE FRONT BURST AND ABOUT 4 WEEKS LATER THE CAUSE WAS RUST AND CORROSION. BOTH TIMES THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR.

BRAKE LINE FAILED ON REAR BRAKES. LOST ALL FLUID IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY RUST ON BRAKE LINES

WHEN DRIVING MY CAR OVER 5 MILES IT WILL CHOKE AND NOT LET ME ACCELERATE AND THE SPEEDOMETER GOES TO 0. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE?

THE MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. WHEN GOING AROUND CURVES AND CORNERS YOU CAN'T DIM THE HEADLIGHTS. BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL DOESN'T ALLOW THE LEVER TO GO FAR ENOUGH TO CATCH. NOW MY HEADLIGHTS WILL NOT TURN ON WHEN THE THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO. MY CRUISE CONTROL DOESN'T WORK. MY A/C STOPS COOLING WHEN THE SPEED REACHES 60 MPH BUT IF I MOVE THE M.F.S. (AKA TURN SIGNAL) IT GETS COOL AGAIN FOR A FEW MINUTES. THE OTHER NIGHT MY LIGHTS WENT OFF WHEN I WAS MEETING A CAR WITH ITS HEADLIGHTS ON BRIGHT. IT WAS A DARK STRETCH OF ROAD. I ALMOST RAN IN THE DITCH.

HEADLIGHTS WENT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT NIGHT. ( I MAY HAVE FLASHED MY HIGH BEAMS TO SIGNAL A TRUCK THAT IT WAS SAFE TO CHANGE LANES BEFORE THIS HAPPENED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STILL WORKING WHEN THIS HAPPENED. NOTHING I DID WOULD BRING HEADLIGHTS BACK ON. VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM!! CAR MILEAGE APPROXIMATELY 62,000. 12/21/2017 DATE.

WHILE IN MOTION THE HIGH BEAM WILL GO OUT AND LOW BEAM WITH IT - NO LIGHTS AT ALL. YOU MUST PUSH OR PULL THE TURN SIGNAL LEVER TO TURN THE LIGHTS ON AGAIN.

CAR STOPPED FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY BUT STARTED UP IMMEDIATELY AND CONTINUED DRIVING HOME. NEXT WEEK STOPPED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING AS I PULLED INTO THE GAS STATION BUT STARTED UP AGAIN AND CONTINUED HOME. NEXT TIME DRIVING NO PROBLEMS THEN STOPPED AGAIN WHILE TURNING INTO THE GROCERY STORE AND AGAIN ON WAY HOME WHILE SLOWING DOWN FOR A CURVE. CAN'T BE TRUSTED. STOPS AT 55 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. VERY DANGEROUS! ONE MECHANIC THINKS IT NEEDS NEW ENGINE COMPUTER BECAUSE HE PULLED ALL SENSORS FOR TESTING AND CAR CONTINUED TO RUN.HOWEVER, HE IS ONLY GUESSING AND WON'T GUARANTEE A FIX IF I HAVE NEW COMPUTER INSTALLED.

THE "SWAYBAR" FOR STEERING BROKE. I BROUGHT IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE SAYS HE HAS SEEN THIS ISSUE WITH BUICK CENTURYS BEFORE. IT COST APPROXIMATELY $825.00 TO FIX.

YOU COULD SMELL GAS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE CAR. I TOOK IT TO MY GARAGE AND THEY WENT ALL OVER IT AND COULD NOT FIND ANY REASON FOR THE SMELL. IT DIDN'T MATTER IF THE GAS TANK WAS FULL OR HALF FULL. WHEN THE WEATHER WAS WARM IT WAS MUCH WORSE. I AM WONDERING IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID THE CAR WILL CATCH ON FILE. *TR

WHEN I TURN ON THE HIGH BEAMS THE HEADLIGHTS WILL OCCASIONALLY TURN OFF COMPLETELY, INSTEAD. TO TURN BACK ON THE VEHICLE'S HEADLIGHTS I HAVE TO PULL THE HIGH BEAM LEVER BACK AND FORTH MULTIPLE TIMES. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN BACK ON THE HEADLIGHTS I ENGAGE THE HAZARDS SO THAT OTHER VEHICLES CAN STILL SEE ME ON THE ROAD. *TR

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR INCREASE SPEED WITHOUT TOUCHING THE PEDAL WILL KEEP INCREASING SPEED SLIGHTLY MAKING YOU HIT BRAKES OR PULL OVER. I RESTART THE CAR AND SOMETIMES THIS WILL STOP IT SOMETIMES NOT. IT IS GETTING WORSE AND I HAVE HAD IT TO A DEALER WITH NO FINDING. I HAVE CONTACTED BUICK THROUGH EMAIL AND HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING YET. THE CAR WILL DO THIS EVEN IN THE CITY AT SPEEDS OF 30 MPH WE HAVE TO BRAKE OR IT WILL GO FASTER AND FASTER. I HAVE CONTACTED ALL I KNOW TO AND CANNOT FIND WHAT IS GOING ON. I NEED SOME ASSISTANCE BEFORE THERE IS AN ACCIDENT. *TR

THE GAS GAUGE IS NOT ACCURATE EVEN THROUGH IT SAYS NO FUEL IT STILL HAS PLENTY IN THE TANK. THE CAR REVERSE UP AND GOES ON ITS OWN WITHOUT USING THE GAS PEDAL AND WHEN YOU PUT THE BRAKES ON IT SHUTTERS. THE WINDOWS DON'T WORK VERY WELL ANYMORE. *TR
