Buick Reviews

My car is leaking oil on the hot muffler but it is not the years for this recent recall 97-2007. Maybe it goes back to earlier models?

I do not feel that this 97 buick regal was right from the beginning when we bought it new from Galloway Buick In Greensboro NC mainly with the transmission but two years ago I had to have it rebuilt it was only 7-8 years old at a $2300.00 cost and just two years later it was back in the shop slipping again so the man kept it for two weeks and it is still picking up a p1870 code (tran. slipping) I have also had to replace my cat converter and after just 8 months it is having to be replaced again and the man says that if it has to be replaced again that it will be on me that he has had trouble with these 3.8 GM cars before my question is should not GM have to be responsable for these problems? from what I see on the computer others are having the same problems. waiting to hear back from you.

I own A 1998 Buick Park Avenue white in color and paint started pealing went by the dealership and spoke with assistant body shop mgr. who looked at the car and even took pictures and said that it was a factory defect due to improper prep. he emailed the pictures, I forwarded to buick who said that the car is too old for them to do anything. but GM has had a white paint problem for years its not just my car I have found and seen countless cars like mine with the same problem and in the same places (where the paint is pealing) GM should issue a recall. I got an est. to repaint which was $3000.00-$5000.00

GM dealer in New Jersey sold us this car as GM CERTIFIED which we found is a trick by them.. Nothing is certified. The solenoid was bad, wipers didn't work (front and back), air conditioning didn't work, transmission problems.. (all this with 60,000 miles).. tricked us into buying a warranty that never covered anything.. now, it's the BCM.. we are getting stuck all the time.. , the radio goes on even when we don't put it on, there's a moan/groan in the front and rear when going 5 to 20 miles per hour, then we had to pay $1,000 for a head gasket..... etc... we often try to get GM to cover things, but they always refuse.. now we have gotten a recall letter re: fuel leak.. car has to be towed tomorrow to dealer. now it's 500 for the BCM , but who knows if that's really the problem.

I had warranty work done four to five times for the same thing and they say its fix but I always have to take it back.My warranty is almost up and I am tired of taking it back for the same problem.

I drove my 2000 Buick Regal GSE to P.O. Box, UPS, and Lunch. Returned home after driving approx. 50 miles, parked car in front of garage at 3:45 PM. I began checking E-mail on computer. about 10 minutes after arriving home I heard an unusual noise outside. Went to door and saw smoke rolling under eaves and thought we had fire in garage.

I owned a 2004 Buick Raineer, my son was in accident while driving my car and the air bags did not deploy. My main concern is that why are this air bags installed in vehicles if they are not reliable.

Economically Im out the original $1500 it cost to fix in first place when it should not have happened in first place, not to mention aggrevation in not having my car to drive, and having to go back and forth.

In January 2002 I bought a new 2002 Buick Century with a 3.1 liter engine. I started seeing drips of radiator fliud on the garage floor at approx. 46,500 miles. It turned out to be the intake manifold gasket leaking in the back mostly. My mechanic said that he has seen many like that and was always surprised that GM did not issue a bulletin and have them replaced.

$600+ cost and time spent for repairs

The 2002 Buick Rendevous is probably the worse vehicle anyone has ever built. I has had problems with the cluster several times, the tires only lasted for 18,000 miles (40,000 mile tires), the heater coil is leaking,the condensor is cracked (AC), the electric windows keep going out,only has 65,000 miles and it always needs repairs. A real piece of sh--.

By having it in the shop so many times, we have had to borrow vehicles. The uncertainty of when the headlights are going to go out, and when they do, the dash lights don't work so you can't tell how fast you are going or anything.

I have a 97 Buick Riviera. It is supposed to be one of their greatest cars produced but with a huge flaw, in my case anyway. The car was awesome looking when I first bought it but about a year ago the paint started to have a white flakey taint underneath the black gloss. Its everywhere. This year however it completely took over my car. Im embarrassed to drive it. Its a sound, safe and fast car but it looks like i just purchased it off the reservation. I asked a paint shop what they thought and said the primer was bad and that they've had plenty of people with the same problem from GM. Buick wont even acknowledge my car has a problem. Thanks for your service GM. Im switching to Ford....

1999 Buick Park Avenue - Beware of plastic parts on engines! The PLASTIC intake manifold failed while traveling at high speed. The cost to replace the manifold at the Los Angeles dealer is 1405.00. I was unawre that Buick used plastic parts in a critical area. This is the standard 3.8 litre engine that is used in thousands of GM cars. The Buick dealer stated that about 1 manifold a month is replaced at his shop.

I was rearended while stopped at a red light. I was then pushed into the car in front of me. Both the lady in the car in front of me and myself had to be transported to the emergency room.

The engine needs major repairs (estimated$1500.00) and could have caused me grave danger because the car stalls when in motion.

I have a 1994 Buick Regal. The paint on the roof has come off. This took a week to happen. The paint peeled off in large sheets. I had a similar problem with the trunk lid about 3 years ago and I had it repainted. This seems to me to be a defect in the paint system.

This results in a lost of coolent if you are lucky. If you are not like me it results in a hydro lock of your engine which resulted in a engine which is unfixable. The cost of a new engine will be around $6000. why has this part not been recalled?
