POWER SEAT WIRING HARNESS SORTED TO SEAT FRAME/SPRING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 BUICK CENTURY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HER SON WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE AIR BAG HIT THE CONTACT'S ARM AND FACE LEAVING MINOR MARKS AND BRUISES. THE DRIVER DID NOT SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR HIS INJURIES. THE CONTACT'S SON WAS ABLE TO PULL THE VEHICLE OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND THEN CALLED THE CONTACT. THE CONTACT ARRIVED AT THE SCENE AND DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD AND DASHBOARD WERE DAMAGED. THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD YET TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 156,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 BUICK CENTURY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 152,000.

FRONT AND REAR BRAKE LINES FAILED LEAVING ME WITH NO BRAKES. I WAS DRIVING AT LOW SPEED. THE REAR BRAKE LINE WAS THE FIRST TO GO. THE FRONT BURST AND ABOUT 4 WEEKS LATER THE CAUSE WAS RUST AND CORROSION. BOTH TIMES THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR.

BRAKE LINE FAILED ON REAR BRAKES. LOST ALL FLUID IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY RUST ON BRAKE LINES

WHEN DRIVING MY CAR OVER 5 MILES IT WILL CHOKE AND NOT LET ME ACCELERATE AND THE SPEEDOMETER GOES TO 0. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE?

THE MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. WHEN GOING AROUND CURVES AND CORNERS YOU CAN'T DIM THE HEADLIGHTS. BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL DOESN'T ALLOW THE LEVER TO GO FAR ENOUGH TO CATCH. NOW MY HEADLIGHTS WILL NOT TURN ON WHEN THE THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO. MY CRUISE CONTROL DOESN'T WORK. MY A/C STOPS COOLING WHEN THE SPEED REACHES 60 MPH BUT IF I MOVE THE M.F.S. (AKA TURN SIGNAL) IT GETS COOL AGAIN FOR A FEW MINUTES. THE OTHER NIGHT MY LIGHTS WENT OFF WHEN I WAS MEETING A CAR WITH ITS HEADLIGHTS ON BRIGHT. IT WAS A DARK STRETCH OF ROAD. I ALMOST RAN IN THE DITCH.

HEADLIGHTS WENT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT NIGHT. ( I MAY HAVE FLASHED MY HIGH BEAMS TO SIGNAL A TRUCK THAT IT WAS SAFE TO CHANGE LANES BEFORE THIS HAPPENED. INTERIOR LIGHTS STILL WORKING WHEN THIS HAPPENED. NOTHING I DID WOULD BRING HEADLIGHTS BACK ON. VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM!! CAR MILEAGE APPROXIMATELY 62,000. 12/21/2017 DATE.

WHILE IN MOTION THE HIGH BEAM WILL GO OUT AND LOW BEAM WITH IT - NO LIGHTS AT ALL. YOU MUST PUSH OR PULL THE TURN SIGNAL LEVER TO TURN THE LIGHTS ON AGAIN.

CAR STOPPED FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY BUT STARTED UP IMMEDIATELY AND CONTINUED DRIVING HOME. NEXT WEEK STOPPED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING AS I PULLED INTO THE GAS STATION BUT STARTED UP AGAIN AND CONTINUED HOME. NEXT TIME DRIVING NO PROBLEMS THEN STOPPED AGAIN WHILE TURNING INTO THE GROCERY STORE AND AGAIN ON WAY HOME WHILE SLOWING DOWN FOR A CURVE. CAN'T BE TRUSTED. STOPS AT 55 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. VERY DANGEROUS! ONE MECHANIC THINKS IT NEEDS NEW ENGINE COMPUTER BECAUSE HE PULLED ALL SENSORS FOR TESTING AND CAR CONTINUED TO RUN.HOWEVER, HE IS ONLY GUESSING AND WON'T GUARANTEE A FIX IF I HAVE NEW COMPUTER INSTALLED.

THE "SWAYBAR" FOR STEERING BROKE. I BROUGHT IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE SAYS HE HAS SEEN THIS ISSUE WITH BUICK CENTURYS BEFORE. IT COST APPROXIMATELY $825.00 TO FIX.

YOU COULD SMELL GAS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE CAR. I TOOK IT TO MY GARAGE AND THEY WENT ALL OVER IT AND COULD NOT FIND ANY REASON FOR THE SMELL. IT DIDN'T MATTER IF THE GAS TANK WAS FULL OR HALF FULL. WHEN THE WEATHER WAS WARM IT WAS MUCH WORSE. I AM WONDERING IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID THE CAR WILL CATCH ON FILE. *TR

WHEN I TURN ON THE HIGH BEAMS THE HEADLIGHTS WILL OCCASIONALLY TURN OFF COMPLETELY, INSTEAD. TO TURN BACK ON THE VEHICLE'S HEADLIGHTS I HAVE TO PULL THE HIGH BEAM LEVER BACK AND FORTH MULTIPLE TIMES. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN BACK ON THE HEADLIGHTS I ENGAGE THE HAZARDS SO THAT OTHER VEHICLES CAN STILL SEE ME ON THE ROAD. *TR

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR INCREASE SPEED WITHOUT TOUCHING THE PEDAL WILL KEEP INCREASING SPEED SLIGHTLY MAKING YOU HIT BRAKES OR PULL OVER. I RESTART THE CAR AND SOMETIMES THIS WILL STOP IT SOMETIMES NOT. IT IS GETTING WORSE AND I HAVE HAD IT TO A DEALER WITH NO FINDING. I HAVE CONTACTED BUICK THROUGH EMAIL AND HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING YET. THE CAR WILL DO THIS EVEN IN THE CITY AT SPEEDS OF 30 MPH WE HAVE TO BRAKE OR IT WILL GO FASTER AND FASTER. I HAVE CONTACTED ALL I KNOW TO AND CANNOT FIND WHAT IS GOING ON. I NEED SOME ASSISTANCE BEFORE THERE IS AN ACCIDENT. *TR

THE GAS GAUGE IS NOT ACCURATE EVEN THROUGH IT SAYS NO FUEL IT STILL HAS PLENTY IN THE TANK. THE CAR REVERSE UP AND GOES ON ITS OWN WITHOUT USING THE GAS PEDAL AND WHEN YOU PUT THE BRAKES ON IT SHUTTERS. THE WINDOWS DON'T WORK VERY WELL ANYMORE. *TR

2004 BUICK CENTURY. PROBLEM WITH SEASON TIRES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 BUICK CENTURY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN SWITCHING FROM HIGH BEAMS TO LOW BEAMS, ALL OF THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD FAIL. THE FAILURE WOULD OCCUR ON AN INTERMITTENT BASIS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY ADVISED HIM THAT HE NEEDED TO HAVE THE HIGH AND LOW BEAM SWITCH REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 38,700. THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE HAS SERIOUS ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE CONSUMER STATED EVERY TIME HE STARTED THE VEHICLE, ANOTHER COMPONENT FAILED. UPDATED 01/10/12

THERE IS A PART MISSING ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT THAT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO USE. I FIND THAT DRIVERS ARE UNWILLING TO FISH THE BUCKLE OFF OF THE FLOOR, AND THE BUCKLE OFTENTIMES WEDGES ITSELF BETWEEN A SEAT LEVER AND THE DOOR. A DRIVER SOMETIMES HAS TO OPEN THE DOOR, EXIT THE CAR, AND RETRIEVE THE BUCKLE FROM ITS HIDING PLACE. DRIVERS (I.E., MY KIDS) ARE VERY DISCOURAGED FROM USING THE BELT. ALL CARS I'VE EVER OWNED HAD LIFETIME WARRANTIES ON SEAT BELTS, AND WERE FIXED PROMPTLY BY DEALERSHIPS WHEN PROBLEMS OCCURRED. MY LOCAL GM DEALER SAYS NOT SO WITH GM CARS. BUICK IGNORES MY EMAIL QUERIES, AND CALLS TO BUICK ARE MET BY CALL CENTER EMPLOYEES WHO ARE PROGRAMMED TO ASK ENDLESS QUESTIONS ABOUT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION (PII) ON ME. NO HELP. *TR

RECENTLY, IN DEC. 2008 MY CAR HAD A SUSPENSION COMPONENT PART REPLACED. MY 2004 BUICK CENTURY JUST 4 YRS. OLD AND 60,000 MILES NEEDED TO HAVE THE FRONT STABILIZER BAR REPLACED. IT APPEARS THAT A DESIGN DEFECT MAY BE THE PROBLEM RESULTING IN PREMATURE FAILURE. THE STABILIZER BAR ACTUALLY CRACKED AT BOTH ENDS OF THE MOUNTING PLATE. I DID ASK FOR THE ORIGINAL PART FOR FUTURE REFERENCES. MOST OF US WOULD AGREE THAT THIS SUSPENSION COMPONENT SHOULD NOT HAVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT THIS POINT. MY MECHANIC SAID "HE HAS SEEN THIS BEFORE ON THESE MODELS" AND IS CHECKING THEM DURING THE SAFETY INSPECTION WHICH IS HOW MINE WAS DISCOVERED. I DO BELIEVE THAT GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL AND THAT I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED. THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE REPLACED, AT LEAST NOT AT SUCH AN EARLY STAGE. MOREOVER, LET ME SAY THIS - WITH OVER 35 YEARS OF DRIVING AND OWNING MANY CARS, I HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A STABILIZER BAR EITHER AT THE FRONT OR REAR OF THE CAR. AND MY LAST CAR HAD 180,000 MILES BEFORE WE TRADED IT IN. THIS BUICK TUBULAR STABILIZER BAR IS INSUFFICIENT AND APPARENTLY WILL NOT HOLD UP DURING REGULAR DRIVING BY A 55 YR. OLD DRIVER. IT IS MY HOPE THAT YOU WILL INVESTIGATE THIS MATTER (YOU MAY CALL ME) AND DETERMINE WHY IS THIS PART PRONE TO FAILURE. I HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON. *TR

NO CRASH/INCIDENT. RECEIVED INCREASE IN INSURANCE PREMIUM FOR 2004 BUICK CENTURY. CALLED INSURANCE COMPANY WHICH STATED THE INCREASE WAS A RESULT OF COMPANY HAVING INCREASED PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS FOR FAILURE OF AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY DURING ACCIDENTS. ALTHOUGH I AM NOT REPORTING ANY ACCIDENT, I INDICATE TODAY'S DATE OF T HIS REPORT AS 12/15/2008 BELOW. NUMBER OF DEATHS & PERSONS INJURED ARE UNKNOWN; HOWEVER, I PLACED THE NUMBER 1 IN EACH CATEGORY TO "PROCEED" TO THE NEXT WINDOW. FURTHER, I DO NOT KNOW ANY DETAILS OF THOSE ACCIDENTS AS REPORTED BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY; THEREFORE, THE "NO" CATEGORIES ARE LEFT IN THE DEFAULT INDICATION. *TR

DRIVING ON A COUNTRY ROAD THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. HIT THE DIMMER SWITCH AND THEY CAME BACK ON. IT DID THIS ABOUT THREE TIMES. FOUND OUT THAT IF WE TRIED TO USE THE DIMMER SWITCH THAT THE LIGHTS WENT OUT. THEN IT GOT TO THE POINT THAT THE ONLY WAY THAT YOU COULD USE THE BRIGHT LIGHTS WAS TO HOLD THE SWITCH. TWO WEEKS LATER WENT TO THE GROCERY STORE TURNED ON THE BLINKER TO TURN AND THE LIGHTS WENT OUT AGAIN. HAD TO PULL THE LIGHT SWITCH ON AND LUCKILY THEY CAME BACK ON. TONIGHT WE TOOK THE CAR OUT AND THE LIGHTS KEPT GOING OUT. THIS IS ON A 2004 BUICK CENTURY. *TR

MY PARENT'S VEHICLE, A 2004 BUICK CENTURY, COLLIDED WITH A GUARD RAIL ON AN ENTRANCE RAMP TO I-81 IN CHRISTIANSBURG, VA. THEY WERE WEARING SEAT BELTS/SHOULDER HARNESS. MAIN IMPACT WAS FRONT LEFT BUMPER, WHICH WAS PUSHED IN ~ 3 FEET IN A NARROW INDENTATION; HOOD WAS CRUMPLED. THERE WAS DAMAGE TO LEFT SIDE OF VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. BOTH PASSENGERS SUSTAINED INJURIES AND WERE TAKEN TO LOCAL HOSPITAL'S EMERGENCY ROOM. I SUSPECT THEIR INJURIES WOULD HAVE BEEN LESS SEVER HAD THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. DAMAGE TO VEHICLE IS VERY EXTENSIVE. *NM UPDATED 12/05/06. *JB

THIS IS IN REFERENCE TO CONSUMER COMPLAINT # ODI CASE NUMBER 10061519. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME COMPLAINT OF THE SLOSHING OF THE GAS WITHIN THE TANK, BUT MY COMPLAINT GOES ONE STEP FURTHER , THERE IS A CLUNK CLUNK ASSOCIATED WITH THE SLOSHING. *JB

DT: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. SHE HAD TO ENGAGE THE DIMMER SWITCH SEVERAL TIMES IN ORDER FOR THE HEADLIGHTS TO WORK PROPERLY. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A GM DEALER, AND THE DEALER REPLACED THE DIMMER SWITCH. THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP. THEY PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WHICH DID NOT DETECT ANYTHING. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. NO FURTHER REPAIRS OR CORRECTIONS HAVE BEEN MADE AT THIS TIME. *AK

THERE IS AN ELECTRIC SHORT IN MY VEHICLE AND THE CONSUMER WAS AFRAID IT WAS GOING TO CATCH ON FIRE. THE HEADLIGHTS FLICKERED AND LOST THE RADIO. ALSO, SPEEDOMETER/HEADLIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHTS DID NOT WORK. THE DEALER SAID THAT THERE WAS A SHORT IN THE VEHICLE, AND FOR CONSUMER TO CALL NHTSA AND REPORT IT. *AK THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START ON 6/18/05 AND FINALLY STARTED BUT EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE CLOCK WOULD GO OUT ALONG WITH OTHER UNITS. *SC *JB

THE CONSUMER READ ABOUT DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS AND WANTED TO KNOW IF THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE 2004 BUICK REGAL. *BF *SC

WHILE DRIVING DRIVER'S SIDE AND PASSENGER'S SIDE WINDOWS WHEN ROLLED DOWN OR HALF WAY DOWN A LOUD VIBRATING SOUND WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE REAR. THIS CAUSED PRESSURE TO THE EARS. CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, AND MECHANIC INFORMED CONSUMER THAT A PROBLEM EXISTED, BUT A SOLUTION HAD NOT BEEN DETERMINED AT THIS TIME. CONSUMER HAS A SECOND ADDRESS FOR THE WINTER 108 PINE PLACE, WILDWOOD, FL 34785, 352 748 0765. *AK THE VIOLENT VIBRATION AND PRESSURE OCCURRED WHEN THE REAR WINDOW(S) WERE DOWN AND SEVERELY EFFECTED THE CONSUMER AND PASSENGERS EARS. *SC

WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH CONSUMER'S VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A HEAD ON COLLISION. UPON IMPACT, DUAL AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DRIVER SUSTAINED BRUISES ON HER CHEST AREA. *AK

CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO HEAR THE FUEL SLASHING BACK AND FORTH IN THE FUEL TANK DUE TO THE FACT THE TANK WAS LOCATED UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT. ALSO, THERE WAS CRACKLING NOISE UNDER THE HOOD WHEN THE IGNITION WAS TURNED OFF. DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT CRACKLING NOISE WAS DUE TO THE WEATHER, AND THE FUEL SLASHING WAS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. NOTHING COULD BE DONE. *AK
