This vehicle has been in the shop at mckinney Buick GMC, and gateway Buick GMC. The battery was the first thing to go, it was replaced under warrenty. The second item to go was the alternator, it was replaced under warrenty. The windshield washer tank cracked, was a recall, it was replaced. The steering column went out totally, because of the tilt lever, it was replaced under warrenty. The rear wheel hubs went out, they were replaced under warrenty. The a/c compreesor went out this last summer 2013, it was replace under extended warrenty, I purchased. Now the heater control switch, or something just went out with the system, because the fan has quit working. So now I'll have to spend another 300. 00 dollars are so to get the vehicle fixed. This car has been a lemmon, I bought it certified used, from lone star Buick GMC, when they were in transition to mckinney Buick GMC, I have had nothing but problems with this model. Owned two Buick century's prior to this vehicle, very reliable, replaced a blower motor in my 1999 Buick c, and a battery in my 2004 Buick c. Unlike this piece of crap 2010 Buick lemmon nightmere. Could you possibly help me out with this problem. This vehicle showed via car fax report to have been in the shop six times prior my purchase. It only had about 16500 miles on it, when I purchased it in may of 2011.
