Consumer Description
AT TIMES THE STEERING LOCKS UP AT LOW SPEEDS. IT HAPPENS NORMALLY WHEN TURNING A CORNER AT LOW SPEEDS. IT LOCKS UP AND VERY, VERY HARD TO TURN. I AM SURE AT SOME POINT IN A CONGESTED AREA IT IS GOING TO CAUSE ME TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND POSSIBLY HURTING OR KILLING SOMEONE OR MYSELF. THIS IS WITHOUT A QUESTION A SAFETY ISSUE THAT BUICK NEEDS TO OWN. I HAVE READ IN MANY FORUMS THAT ALLOT OF BUICK OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE OWNED ALOT OF VEHICLES IN MY LIFE AND HAVE NEVER HAD TO PAY UP TO $2200 TO FIX THE STEERING ON A VEHICLE BECAUSE OF PREMATURE FAILURE. I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL CARS THAT I HAVE DRIVEN OVER 200,000 MILES AND NEVER HAD MECHANICAL STEERING ISSUES. BUICK NEEDS TO OWN THIS CRITICAL SAFETY ISSUE. RESPECTFULLY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR*JB
