The consumer stated that the trunk lid had a tendency to swing up and down when opened. On one occasion the lid came down and hit the consumers glasses and gave her a black eye. The dealer replaced the torsion bar.

When this vehicle is parked forward on a slight incline the trunk lid bounces, when opened by the remote. Both my wife and myself have been hit on the head, I received a slight laceration. This is a dangerous situation. Someone can get a concussion. We have gone through all of Buick's channels of complaint.
