This is my fourth problem that has occurred, all within a year. This problem occurred at the same time as my third problem when my family and I were driving on the highway to start our vacation in another state. Just as we arrived in that state, my car started to shake like it was going to cut off while sitting idle at a red light. The check engine light came on and my navigation screen went blank. As I started to drive, the car was still acting like it wanted to cut off and it did. Luckily, no one was behind me because if they were they probably would have crashed into me. The car cranked back up with a loud squealing noise.
The loud squealing noise was constant and did not stop. I was able to get the car to a Buick dealership and the employees there were fantastic. The cause and solution for the check engine light was explained in my third problem submission. This issue is for the squealing, which was due to a worn seal caused by the vacuum leak from the camshaft cover. The solution was replacing the crankshaft front oil seal. These issues are getting ridiculous now, four problems within a year!
