Well first there are a few complaints , first few months ,car alarm going off at random , then trunk popped at random ,brought in two separate occasions to dealer for service was said to be fixed . Then left signal outage few occasions brought in with the other work , had no idea about the bulbs till this site , then radio on and off intermittent , battery or other car dies charges will drive all day end of day after a battery jump studders as driving or feels like going to just die . Got home on 7/21/2014 and noticed all the recalls on news had no clue it was this make,model ,year,etc. , my 18 has driven on numerous occasions (god forbid) ! also I'm reading where this make takes off at random has happened numerous times in drive thru assumed I hadn't applied enough pressure to brake . I'm furious and honestly with young adult drivers scared to death now! ohhh and never received any recall info on this vehicle ever! OH and my key broke to only thing is it bent and had replaced ! and seat was loose also .
When starting the car in the morning, it acts dead, but the battery is okay. After a few tries it does start but then I have the dash light behaving crazy - emergency flashers on and various messages in my center dash. I reset everything to normal and am okay. Upon a restart later in the day, things are usually okay. Being a senior citizen I don't go very far but yesterday, as I was entering a traffic circle, the engine suddenly quit, a huge trailer truck was bearing down on me and luckily the car started back up just in time. The Buick dealer (darby) treated me rudely over a minor problem so now I don't know where to go or what to do for help on this issue.
