My vehicle has been parked for the better of about two years due to head lamp failure and engine shutting off without warning at any particular time. Steps were made to fix the issue but the problem continues still to this day.

They continue to work, but the night they went out was very disturbing. The vehicle was in motion, on state hgwy, getting ready to turn to the right.

The air bag light comes on frequently, but mainly during hot summer days and has came on several times since we purchased the vehicle March of 2019. The light comes on when we are stationary and while driving. When doing research, this seems to be a common problem with other consumers vehicles. I had read it was an electrical issue and in my opinion this is very dangerous and should be a recall. Another issue we have that I also seen was a common issue with Lacrosse owners, is the power locks. None of my lock work properly, all of them have to be manually locked and unlocked. Today, December 10, 2019, we noticed that when I tried getting out of the car the door would not open. Door was unlocked and had been unlocked. My boyfriend tried opening the door from the outside and it would not open. I tried to lock it and unlock it again, I tried pushing the door really hard to see if it would pop open and no luck. I think there should be a lot more recalls on this vehicle as I've had this issues as well as many others.

I just purchased this car last week and I noticed when I hit the lock on the fob, my alarm would sound, but my door looks wouldn't close. So I tried it in my car as well with the locks on the door and nothing. The unlock works perfect by the way (fob & door locks). I manually lock my doors at night and in the morning, the locks will work a few times, and then stop again. Also the doors do not lock when you take the care out of park.

First issue car will shut off driving down the freeway doing 60 70 miles an hour it will just shut off and I have to coast to the side and wait and wait till it starts again very dangerous. Next issue is the airbag light flashes on and off I'm assuming do I do to a pressure sensor in the passenger seat which I have a daughter that sits in the passenger seat and I don't know if the airbag is working or not. Next problem are the door locks they lock they don't lock the left rear does not work I have to manually pull it up and push it down if I want it locked the key fob warning is always on my dash saying key fob battery is low I replaced it I replace the key fob itself it just works when it wants to. Next problem the check engine light comes on goes off comes on goes off and therefore I cannot use my remote start if the check engine light is on it has been checked there's nothing wrong with the car nothing shows up if you check the gauges I don't know what to do I paid a lot of money for my remote start cannot use it and I'm in Minnesota. I need my car fixed it's reliable it's a good car it's what I drive it's my car I have a daughter's life at stake in my car I expect it to be trusted in the car that I bought after reading all the complaints on the site regarding the same issues that my car is having I am hoping literally hoping that your company is willing to fix these issues in my car and all the other people that are waiting in line cuz this is ridiculous

I submit this complaint on behalf of my senior citizen mother who is 75 years old. My mom had a very scary experience & got locked inside of her Buick car for over 1/2 hour & could not unlock any of 4 car doors from inside to escape out of her car. Plus, key would not turn in ignition & car wheel locked up. It was winter season !! car was stationery. All car windows were rolled up so my mom could not get any heat nor fresh air. My mom could have froze to death inside of her car !! more scary -- we have no idea when it can happen again nor how long the next lockout will last !! clearly this is a safety issue !! especially for a senior citizen person. We are amazed that Buick did not yet issue a recall for this type of incident. I found Buick forums on the internet where hundreds of other people complained of same related problems !! I emailed all 7 websites to bcr. Some people cannot even unlock driver car door to into get into driver's seat !! they have to enter their cars thru passenger & crawl over to passenger car seat or enter from backseat of the car !! obviously Buick & GM never did anything yet about this scary & annoying problem !! on March 16 2018 I opened a new case #8-4000469674 with Buick customer relations (bcr). They flagged this as a safety issue !! bcr said Buick will only work with a Buick car dealer on this issue if my mom brings her car to a Buick car dealer. So we made an appt for this Monday, April 16 8:30am at fox valley Buick (fvb) in St. Charles, il to get her Buick car diagnosed !! bcr will work with fvb & cem (customer experience manager). Clearly -- this is a very serious safety issue !! in hot heat or winter cold -- a person can literally suffocate or freeze being a trapped prisoner inside of their car !!! 2 bcr reps failed to call me back over 4 days. One bcr rep was supervisor. But I was diligent & I followed up with bcr !!

I write to lodge a safety complaint on GM. This public safety issue centers on the detachment of the rear spoiler while operating my 2008 Buick Lacrosse, my argument is that engineers, both licensed and unlicensed, are employed by vehicle manufacturing corporations. They are engaged in the process of manufacturing vehicles that are place into operation on our nation's highways. Their work directly affects public health and safety as much, if not more than their licensed colleagues in consulting engineering. These engineers and their corporations have a responsibility to public safety and product liability. This has been clearly documented by cases such as macpherson V. Buick. They are responsible to ensure that public safety is a number one concern this is codified in title 49 usc. Vehicle manufactures have the inherent responsibility to provide for vehicle safety and to provide for the notification of defects and noncompliance issues. Us federal regulations through the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) specify design, construction, performance, and durability requirements for motor vehicles and regulated automobile safety-related components, systems, and design features. This includes engineering design and engineering manufacturing defects, shortfalls, and shortcomings. I was commuting to the dealership from work to obtain an annual Virginia state safety inspection. While operating my vehicle southbound, at a speed of 60-65 mph, around the 147 mile-marker, the rear spoiler detaches from my vehicle causing at least two trailing vehicles to operate their vehicles erratically in an avoidance maneuver. The rear spoiler detached and skidded to a halt on the left shoulder of the highway. I then signaled to the left shoulder to stop retrieve the detached spoiler. This could have been an egregious outcome.

While stationary or in motion the driver side front door will not unlock with key fob, unlock button on door panel, or by hand. All three methods have been attempted to unlock the door and they have been unsuccessful.

Driving along when all of a sudden warning came on, and car slowed almost to a stop, got message on dash that traction stability was a problem. Problem went away and several months later, car slowed down on the garden state parkway, had to leave the road, the problem became more of a problem as the months went by, took to the dealer had to replace the sensor, it may have been related to the key problem, which was corrected by the dealer so far so good. Now the door locks are failing, rear passenger was the first to go, now front locks not working properly, what is wrong with this Buick I only have a little over 50,0000 miles on the car.
