NHTSA Complaint #10342796 — 2008 BUICK ENCLAVE

WITHIN THE LAST FOUR MONTHS, I HAVE NOTICED A VIBRATING NOISE AS PART OF MY STEERING. MY MAJOR COMPLAINT IS A VERY LOUD SHARP WHISTLING NOISE COMING FROM MY ENGINE AFTER DRIVING IT FOR A SHORT TIME. THE SCREECHING, WHISTLING CONTINUES WHILE IT IS IDLING FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME. I AM CONCERNED OF WHAT IT IS AND ALSO FIND IT NOT ACCEPTABLE TO HAVE TO PUT UP WITH THE NOISE CONSTANTLY, ESPECIALLY BEING ONLY 2 YRS. 4 MO. OLD AND LESS THAT 25,000 MILES. OBVIOUSLY IT IS A DEFECT BY GM AND THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING IT ASAP AS I'M NOT SURE IF THE NOISE IS ALL THERE IS TO IT AS FAR AS SAFETY. THE TECHNICIANS AT THE DEALERSHIP WORKED ON IT, PUT IN A NEW DEFIBULATOR, TOOK IT BACK OUT AND SAID THEY CALLED GMC. ACCORDING TO THE TECHNICIAN, GM SAID ALL ENCLAVES MAKE THE SAME NOISE. I AM IRATE AS NOT ONE ON THE LOT MAKES THE NOISE NOR DO ANY OTHER'S THAT I KNOW PEOPLE DRIVE. I DID NOT PAY CLOSE TO $40,000 FOR A LUXURY VEHICLE THAT SOUNDS LIKE A 15 YEAR OLD CLUNKER IN WHICH AGAIN IS EMBARRASSING AS WELL NEEDS TO BE RECKONED WITH BEFORE MY NEXT DESCRIPTION MAY BE A BIG SAFETY ISSUE TOO! .................. TAKE CARE OF YOUR CONSUMERS GMC AS INTEGRITY SHOULD BE #1 IN YOUR COMPANY. *TR
