TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BUICK LACROSSE. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATORS AND HEADLIGHTS DIMMED TWICE. THE SECOND TIME THE FAILURE OCCURRED WAS WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH. WHEN THE CONTACT MOVED THE DIMMER BUTTON, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATORS ILLUMINATED AGAIN, BUT THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS ILLUMINATED INSTEAD OF THE NORMAL BEAMS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY FOUND NO FAILURES; HOWEVER, THEY REPLACED A PART. THE CONTACT WAS UNSURE OF WHICH PART WAS REPLACED; HOWEVER, IT DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BUICK LACROSSE. THE VEHICLE HAS GOODYEAR TIRES, SIZE P/225/60/R16 (NA). THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE WOULD SPORADICALLY LOSE PRESSURE. AS A RESULT, SHE EXPERIENCED EXCESSIVE SHAKING IN THE WHEEL WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND THEY ROTATED, INSPECTED, AND BALANCED THE TIRES. AS OF AUGUST 18, 2008, THE DEALERS HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL IN REMEDYING THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE MILEAGE WAS 18,210.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BUICK LACROSSE. IN FOUR DIFFERENT SITUATIONS, WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOULD RANDOMLY STALL. THE CONTACT HEARD CLANKING NOISES IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE AND EVENTUALLY STALL. IN TWO OF THE INCIDENTS, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY WERE ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE AND PRODUCE AN ERROR CODE BOTH TIMES. THEY REPROGRAMMED THE ENGINE, WHICH REPAIRED THE FAILURE FOR APPROXIMATELY TWO OR THREE DAYS. DURING ONE OF THE VISITS, THE DEALER REPLACED A TRANSMITTER AND A THROTTLE BODY. THE REPAIRS WOULD LAST FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 OR 4 DAYS. THE VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO BE RESTARTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED AND REMAINS AT THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16,755 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 17,334.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BUICK LACROSSE. HE STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIMPS ACTIVATED. THE DEALER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE HOWEVER THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPAIR BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED THAT WAY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 8,000.

I OWN A 2007 BUICK LACROSSE CXL. IT HAS HAD A VIBRATION IN IT SINCE IT WAS DELIVERED. I DROVE IT UNTIL IT HAD 2,300 MILES ON IT TO SEE IF THE TIRES WOULD EVEN OUT, BUT THEY DID NOT, SO I TOOK THE CAR IN AND THE DEALER BALANCED THE WHEELS . THE VIBRATION WAS LESSENED, BUT STILL THERE. I ADDED AIR TO ALL THE TIRES TO A PRESSURE OF 30PSI COLD AND THIS HELPED BUT DID NOT ELIMINATE THE VIBRATION WHICH SEEMS TO BE IN THE REAR TIRES. I PUT MY CONCERNS ON THE DEALER PERFORMANCE FORM AND WAS CONTACTED BY A BUICK REPRESENTATIVE WHO ASSIGNED ME A CONFIRMATION NUMBER AND SAID THE CONCERN WOULD BE LOOKED AT BY BUICK, BUT HE COULD OFFER LITTLE IN THE WAY OF REMEDY. I CURRENTLY HAVE 2,900 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. *TR
