Barker Buick replaced axle seals 12/10/09 and seals had to be replaced again 01/13/10. A quality Luxury car should not have these serious problems with less than 18,000 miles. It is a large inconvenience scheduling, bringing in car, waiting for repairs, and returning to get car. This is a sorry excuse for a quality vehicle.

A luxury SUV should not have this leak. It would have gotten much worse if I had not discovered the leak. It is hard to have confidence in a vehicle that has so many problems. It is a great inconvenience scheduling repairs, bringing in SUV, waiting for repairs, and returning to get SUV.

I discovered the CV boot leak. It would have gotten much worse if I had not discovered the leak. It is hard to have confidence in a vehicle that has so many problems. It is a great inconvenience scheduling repairs, bringing in SUV, waiting for repairs, and returning to get SUV.
