NHTSA Complaint #10466574 — 2006 BUICK RAINIER

THERE ARE TWO KINDS OF PROBLEMS I BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SEVERAL TIMES SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE BUT MECHANICS STILL CANNOT FIND WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEMS. FIRST, MY VEHICLE STUTTERS WHEN I BACK UP AND TURN SLOWLY OR TURN FORWARD SLOWLY. IT DOES NOT DO IT EVERY TIME, JUST OCCASIONALLY SO THE MECHANICS DO NOT EXPERIENCE IT. SECOND, WHEN STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT FOR A FEW SECONDS, MY CAR FEELS LIKE IT HAS BEEN HIT IN THE BACK BUT WHEN I LOOK BACK TO SEE IF I'VE BEEN BUMPED, THERE IS NO VEHICLE BEHIND ME. IT FEELS LIKE THE POWERTRAIN OR ENGINE WANTS TO JERK FORWARD. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THEY SAY THEY HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM, BUT IT CONTINUES. *TR
