Consumer Description

MY 2011 BUICK ENCLAVE ROLLS FORWARD AND BACKWARD ON AN INCLINE WHEN IN DRIVE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AS THE ROLLBACK IS NOT RESTRICTED AND CAN REACH DANGEROUS SPEEDS DEPENDING ON THE LEVEL OF DECLINE. THIS REQUIRES THE DRIVER TO KEEP FIRM AND CONSISTENT PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE WHEN ON AN INCLINE TO AVOID ROLLING INTO OTHER VEHICLES AND ALSO, GO HEAVY ON GAS TO OVERPOWER THE ROLL WHEN TAKING OFF. THIS IS EVEN WORSE THAN A MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLE AS AT LEAST THEY WILL STOP IF THEY SNUB OUT. *TR
