Consumer Description

DASHBOARD HAS WARPED AND SEPARATED FROM UNDER THE WINDSHIELD. ACCORDING TO EXPERIENCED AUTO MECHANIC FRIENDS OF MINE, DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAG SYSTEM WILL MOST LIKELY BE COMPROMISED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AFFECTING HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF THESE BUICKS! WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS? CHECK THIS WEBSITE AND YOU'LL SEE HOW PROLIFIC A PROBLEM THIS IS! HTTP://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-C5295_DS45613 NOT TO MENTION THE MONEY LOST BECAUSE OF THE INABILITY TO SELL THESE LEMONS. 2000-2005 BUICK OWNERS ARE IN DANGER. AND YOU'VE DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT! IF THIS WAS TOYOTA, YOU WOULD HAVE RECALLED EVERY CAR THEY MAKE AND FINED THEM ANOTHER 50 MILLION DOLLARS. STOP THE HYPOCRISY. INTELLIGENT AMERICANS SEE THROUGH THIS SELECTIVE PUNISHMENT. DO YOUR JOB! *TR
