NHTSA Complaint #10229143 — 2005 BUICK LESABRE

I OWN A 2005 BUICK LESABRE. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH OR GREATER, THE FRONT WHEELS, STEERING WHEEL AND THE FLOOR BOARDS SHAKE AND VIBRATE. TOOK TO DEALER AT 415 MILES AND THEY SAID TO RETURN WHEN CAR HAD 500 MILES. AT 1292 MILES DEAR REPLACED STEERING SHAFT. THE DEALER REPLACED TIRES.; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO OCCUR. TOOK BACK CAR AGAIN THEN WENT TO ANOTHER DEALER. THEY SAID ONE OF THE TIRES HAD A NAIL. I REPLACED ALL FOUR TIRES ( NOT FROM DEALER) HOPING PROBLEM WOULD GO AWAY AND IT DID NOT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO BACK TO 2ND DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE FORCED BALANCED AND HAVE WHEEL ALIGNMENT. THE DEALER MADE THE REPAIR ($400.00); HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO OCCUR. AS OF MAY28, 2005 THE DEALER HAD NOT REPAIRED THE VEHICLE AND SAID IT WAS AN INHERENT PROBLEM. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 11,081 AND FAILURE STARTED FROM TIME CAR WAS PURCHASED. *TR
