NHTSA Complaint #10384930 — 2010 BUICK LACROSSE

THE BATTERY GOES DEAD. WHEN IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WE WERE TOLD THAT WE DID NOT DRIVE ENOUGH. THE SECOND INCIDENT OCCURRED IN 12/2010. THIS TIME THERE WERE 21 LOW VOLTAGE HITS WHEN THE DEALERSHIP WAS TROUBLESHOOTING. I ALSO SUBMITTED A COMPLAINT TO GM. IT APPEARS THAT THEIR SOLUTION IS TO PLACE A TRICKLE CHARGE ON THE BATTERY TO ENSURE THE BATTERY IS AT FULL CAPACITY. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF PURCHASING A SOLAR POWERED BATTERY CHARGE AT THIS TIME. IN ORDER FOR MY WIFE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE, SHE WILL ALWAYS HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE CHARGER. TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM ON A STATE OF THE ART AUTOMOBILE IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING.
