NHTSA Complaint #10384128 — 2004 BUICK LESABRE

THE TACHOMETER AND TEMPERATURE GAUGES ON MY 2004 BUICK LESABRE HAVE FAILED. THE NEEDLES HAVE BECOME STUCK IN THE RED ZONES OF THEIR RESPECTIVE GAUGES. THIS BEGAN APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR AGO WHEN MY CAR HAD LESS THAN 50,000 MILES ON IT. THE SPEEDOMETER HAS RECENTLY SHOWN SIGNS OF SPORADIC STICKING, SO I CANNOT BE CERTAIN MY VEHICLE IS TRAVELING AT THE CORRECT SPEED. BASED ON SIMILAR POSTINGS ON THIS SITE AS WELL AS NUMEROUS INTERNET SITES, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT A MANUFACTURER DEFECT EXISTS, THEREFORE BUICK SHOULD BE ORDERED TO MAKE NECESSARY REPAIRS AT THEIR COST. A BUICK DEALER TOLD ME THIS WOULD COST OVER $300 TO REPAIR. *TR
