ENGINE
TIMING CHAIN FAILURE @ 78263 MILES. VEHICLE DISPLAYED ENGINE TROUBLE LIGHT AND WAS STILL DRIVABLE. WAS TOLD IT WOULD HAVE STOPPED WITHOUT REPAIRS. CONTACTED LOCAL DEALER AND BUICK CUSTOMER SERVICE AND BOTH ENTITIES DENIED ASSISTANCE WITH TIMING CHAIN REPLACEMENT DUE TO VEHICLE OUT OF WARRANTY. I REFERENCED TSB 11340A WHERE GM EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE TO OTHER MODELS WITH TIMING CHAIN ISSUES, BUT NOT THE 2010 LACROSSE, IN MY COMMUNICATIONS WITH THEM. I APPEALED TO GM PRESIDENT AND THE STATE CONSUMER AFFAIRS DIVISION WHERE I LIVE. GM HAS CLOSED THE FILE ON MY CASE THOUGH I ASKED FOR CONFIRMATION THAT THE SUPPLIER OF THE ENGINE IN THE 2010 LACROSSE WAS NOT THE SAME AS IN THE ENGINES OF THE VEHICLES REFERENCED IN THE TSN 11340A.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ON FRIDAY, JULY 1, 2016 I WAS TRAVELING DOWN A 2 LANE ROAD WITH MY CRUISE CONTROL SET WHEN MY CAR SUFFERED A LOSS OF POWER. THE ENGINE STILL WAS RUNNING, BUT APPARENTLY MY TRANSMISSION LOST THE ABILITY TO POWER THE CAR. I WAS ABLE TO PARK ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD, AND EVENTUALLY, TOWED TO MY MECHANICS SHOP. YESTERDAY I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS A FAULTY TRANSMISSION CONTROL AND IT WILL COST ME $1060 TO REPAIR. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THIS IS A COMMON ENOUGH PROBLEM THAT BUICK DEALERS KEEP THE PART IN STOCK.. IF IT IS THAT COMMON OF A PROBLEM, AND CARS ARE LOSING POWER ON THE ROAD, THAT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO RECALL, INSTEAD OF TAKING HARD EARNED MONEY OUT OF OWNERS POCKETS TO FIX! I MIGHT ADD THAT THIS CAR HAS LESS THAN 68,000 MILES ON IT!

ENGINE
GM 3.6 L VVT TIMING CHAIN ISSUE I WAS DRIVING OUR '10 BUICK LACROSSE (WITH 65,340 MI) ONE EVENING AND THE CAR'S FRONT END BEGAN TO SHAKE AND THE ENGINE STARTED TO POWER DOWN, AND DID SO FOR ABOUT 5-10 SECONDS. IT THEN RAN NORMAL FOR ABOUT 75 YARDS AND THE DISPLAY SHOWED LOW ENGINE POWER MESSAGE WITH THE EXCLAMATION POINT. I PULLED OFF ON A SIDE STREET AND SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. I TRIED TO RESTART IT, BUT IT WOULD NOT FIRE. I HAD IT TOWED TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE NEXT DAY THAT I NEEDED A NEW MOTOR THAT WOULD RUN $6800. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED BACK HOME AND WHILE CALLING AROUND TO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS FOR ENGINE QUOTES, I FOUND A DEALERSHIP THAT ASKED ME IF THEY COULD TAKE A LOOK AT IT. I TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND THY RIGHT AWAY SAID IT DID NOT SOUND LIKE MY ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THEY TOWED THE VEHICLE TO THEIR DEALERSHIP AND DISCOVERED THE TIMING CHAIN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT WHEN IT BROKE, IT DAMAGED THE REAR VALVES AND ONE OF THE HEADS. THE TOTAL COST WAS ABOUT $3250. I CALLED GM CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY WILL NOT OFFER ANY HELP ON THE REPAIRS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS, WHILE DRIVING, THE SERVICE STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHT COMES ON; THE ABS & PARK ASSIST LIGHTS FLASH ON AND OFF; MY RPM, SPEEDOMETER, & TEMPERATURE GAUGES GO HAYWIRE; AND THE ENGINE LOSES POWER CAUSING THE CAR TO JERK. I NEVER KNOW WHEN THIS WILL HAPPEN. ON 3/18/16, I WAS PUT IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ACROSS THE STATE OF FLORIDA ON A 2 LANE HIGHWAY THAT HAD NO SAFE PLACE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO CAME ON AND STAYED ON THRU THE REST OF MY DRIVE. TWO DAYS LATER, THE DRIVE HOME WAS INCIDENT FREE & THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS GONE. ON 3/22/16 I TOOK THE CAR TO A GM DEALER; SHOWED THE SERVICE TECH A VIDEO OF THE EVENTS HAPPENING AS I WAS DRIVING AND A LETTER I GOT FROM GM REGARDING A POSSIBLE THROTTLE SENSOR PROBLEM THAT CAUSES REDUCED POWER AND MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMPS TO APPEAR. THE GM DEALER TECH SAID MY CARS PROBLEMS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH GM'S LETTER AND HE WAS 90% SURE MY FUEL INJECTOR NEEDED REPLACING. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY PERSONAL AUTO MECHANIC FOR 10+ YRS, WHO WORKS FOR A VERY REPUTABLE COMPANY, FOR A SECOND OPINION. SINCE THE CODES HAD BEEN CLEARED BY THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT AND THE CAR CHECKED OUT OK MY MECHANIC SAID TO DRIVE IT AND BRING IT BACK IF THE PROBLEMS OCCURRED AGAIN. IT RECENTLY STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN & MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SO I TOOK THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC WHO FOUND MULTIPLE CODES FOR ECM & TCM LOST COMMUNICATION PCM MALFUNCTION & OTHER COMMUNICATION ISSUES. HE DROVE THE CAR AND EXPERIENCED WHAT I WAS EXPLAINING WAS HAPPENING. MY MECHANIC COULDN'T PINPOINT THE PROBLEM BUT SAID THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM; THAT IT'S ELECTRICAL. HE SUGGESTED WE TAKE THE CAR TO ANOTHER BUICK DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION & I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR SINCE I NEVER KNOW WHEN THE PROBLEMS WILL START HAPPENING.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THREE DAYS AGO, WHILE ON A TRIP FROM THE WEST COAST OF FLORIDA TO THE EAST COAST OF FLORIDA; AND WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH, THE WARNING BELLS STARTED DINGING AND THE MESSAGES: SERVICE STABILITRAK, ABS, AND PARK ASSIST OFF KEPT FLASHING OFF AND ON; THE CAR BEGAN JERKING AND LOSING ENGINE POWER; THE TACHOMETER, SPEEDOMETER, AND TEMPERATURE GAUGES WERE JUMPING AROUND ALL OVER THE PLACE; AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. (A VIDEO OF WHAT OCCURRED WAS TAKEN TO SHOW AS PROOF). I MANAGED TO PULL OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURNED THE CAR OFF AND SAT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, THEN STARTED THE CAR AGAIN. LESS THAN A MINUTE AFTER I GOT BACK ON THE HIGHWAY, THE SAME EVENTS OCCURRED AGAIN. AFTER AT LEAST 30 MINUTES OR MORE OF THE CAR CONTINUING TO MALFUNCTION WHILE DRIVING; IT SUDDENLY STOPPED GIVING ME WARNING SIGNALS AND ENGINE POWER SEEMED TO STABILIZE; HOWEVER, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON. ONCE I REACHED MY DESTINATION, I DIDN'T USE THE CAR FOR TWO DAYS. MY RETURN TRIP HOME, WHICH WAS APPROXIMATELY 140 MILES, WAS UNEVENTFUL; HOWEVER, THE VERY NEXT MORNING ON MY WAY TO WORK, WHILE SITTING IN TRAFFIC ON THE EXPRESSWAY, THE WARNING BELLS SUDDENLY STARTED RINGING AGAIN, AND THE SERVICE STABILITRAK AND ABS LIGHTS CAME ON. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO WORK AND CALLED THE BUICK DEALER TO BRING MY CAR IN TO HAVE IT CHECKED. IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS, THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED 3 TO 4 TIMES, BUT EACH TIME ONLY LASTED MOMENTS AND NEVER TO THE EXTREME THAT IT DID . I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM BUICK ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO THAT PERTAINED TO SUCH ISSUES AND LOSS OF ENGINE POWER; AND THE LETTER STATED THAT THE CAR SHOULD BE TAKEN TO THE BUICK DEALER AND REPAIRED AT NO COST. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, WHEELS
APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING A BUICK LACROSSE I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE THE VEHICLE SHUTTING DOWN WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED OR IDLE. SHORTLY AFTER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY CLAIM THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I DECIDED TO GET A SECOND OPINION SO I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER CERTIED REPAIR SHOP AND THEY SUGGESTED THAT I GET AND UPPER ENGINE FLUSH. SUPPOSEDLY BECAUSE THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE IS KNOWN FOR MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF CARBON BUILD UP. SO, I GOT THE UPPER ENGINE FLUSH ON MY VEHICLE BUT THE VERY NEXT DAY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THE. MACHANIC ADVISED ME THAT IT WOULD TAKE MORE THAN ONE ENGINE FLUSH TO FIX THE PROBLEM. SO AFTER NOT TWO BUT THREE UPPER ENGINE FLUSHES THE PROBLEM OF HAVING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY DISPLAY IS NOT RESOLVED . NO ONE CAN SEEM TO FIND A DIAGNOSIS FOR MY VEHICLE PROBLEMS NOT EVEN THE DEALER. MOST RECENTLY, THE DASH BOARD DISPLAY LIGHT PERIODICALLY GOES OUT, AND AN UNFAMILIAR NOISE IS COMING FROM THE DRIVER'S FRONT TIRE. ONCE AGAIN, I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO A CERTIFIED MACHANIC AND THE ISSUE IS NOT DETECTABLE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKE WILL SUDDENLY GRIP TIRE, AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL COME ON. THIS HAPPENS ON DRY ROADS. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO WINNER CHEVROLET WHO THOUGHT THEY FIXED IT, AS SOON AS I LEFT THE DEALER IT DID IT AGAIN. AFTER 7 DAYS OF TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM I WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO A BUICK DEALER. RELIABLE BUICK OF ROSEVILLE HAD THE CAR FOR 9 DAYS, THEY WERE CONSULTING WITH BUICK TECHS, THOUGHT THEY FINALLY FIXED IT, BROUGHT IT HOME YESTERDAY AND IT JUST DID IT AGAIN. I'VE NOTICED A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND ALSO THERE ARE RECALLS ON 2012 BUICK LACROSSE FOR THIS. RECALL #11222. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS IN AN ACCIDENT.

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, STEERING
I WAS GETTING ON THE ON RAMP FOR THE INTERSTATE AND GRADUALLY ATTEMPTING TO GAINING SPEED TO BUT MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED.I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR WITH NO PICK UP. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO PICK UP SPEED. WHEN THE VEHICLE GOT UP TO APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH IT BEGAN TO DO THE SAME THING AGAIN I HAD THE ACCELERATER PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. I COULD HERE THE VEHICLE IDLING AND AFTER SOME TIME HAD PASSED IT BEGAN TO PICK UP SPEED AGAIN. I'VE HAD MY VEHICLE FOR FOUR YEARS AND HAVE KEPT UP WITH THE MAINTENANCE AT THE DEALER SHIP. I HAVE PAID FOR DIAGNOSTICS SEVERAL TIMES AT THE DEALERSHIP TO NO AVAIL. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER BUT THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. I HAVE TAKEN IT MORE THAN 5 TIMES IN AN ATTEMPT TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM WITH NO SUCCESS. IT'S NOT A CONSTANT THING, HOWEVER IT IS QUITE DANGEROUS AS WELL AS UNSETTLING NOT KNOWING WHEN OR WHERE MY SAFETY MAY BE COMPRISED IN THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS MY SECOND BUICK LACROSSE WHICH HAS HAD PROBLEMS OF THIS NATURE. I WAS HOPING MY PROBLEMS WITH MY 2005 BUICK LACROSSE WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT BUT I'M BEGINNING TO THINK PERHAPS IT WASN'T. MAYBE THIS CAN ALL BE ATTRIBUTED TO JUST POOR WORKMANSHIP WITH INFERIOR PRODUCT MANUFACTURING.
