Consumer Description

ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO MY 98 BUICK REGAL BEGAN STALLING WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS STALLED ON THE INTERSTATE NUMEROUS TIMES AS WELL AS IN INTERSECTIONS. ALSO AT TIMES IT WILL SIMPLY NOT START. I HAVE HAD A FULL TUNE UP AND GET THE CAR SERVICED REGULARLY, BUT 4 DIFFERENT MECHANICS, EVEN A BUICK MECHANIC CAN'T DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE SAFETY PROBLEM AND I AM VERY SURPRISED NO RECALL HAS BEEN SET UP BECAUSE WITH A QUICK SEARCH YOU CAN LOCATE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND FIXED BY BUICK AND NHTSA. *TR
