Consumer Description
ABOUT ONE MONTH AGO WHEN I WOULD GET IN MY VEHICLE AND ATTEMPT TO BACK OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, THE POWER STEERING WOULDN'T FUNCTION FOR A FEW SECONDS. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT FOUR TIMES. THIS WEEKEND ON SATURDAY I DROVE FROM MY HOUSE TO A GAS STATION, WAS PULLING UP TO A GAS PUMP AND LOST MY STEERING AGAIN FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS. ON SUNDAY I WAS PULLING OUT OF A RESTAURANT ONTO A BUSY ROAD AND LOST MY STEERING FOR FIFTEEN SECONDS!! AFTER BRINGING IT TO THE DEALER, BEING CHARGED $50 AND BEING TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG, I CALLED BUICK. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE ONLINE THAT MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR VEHICLE. RECALL THIS VEHICLE BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED! *JS
