Consumer Description

A PUDDLE APPEARED IN THE DRIVEWAY WHERE THE 2006 BUICK LUCERNE IS PARKED. THE PUDDLE LOOKED LIKE POWER STEERING FLUID AND AFTER GETTING UNDER THE CAR, A POWER STEERING LEAK WAS DETECTED. I SEARCHED ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2006 BUICK LUCERNE WITH A V8 ENGINE WHICH SAID THAT THE POWER STEERING HOSE CONNECTORS WERE IMPROPERLY INSTALLED WHICH WOULD CAUSE A LEAK. I CALLED BUICK ABOUT THIS AND THEY SAID THAT MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF THIS RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT MEETS THE YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL REQUIREMENTS AND HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM THE RECALL IS FOR. *TR
