NHTSA Complaint #10937452 — 2007 BUICK LUCERNE

VEH WHILE DRIVING JUST CUTS OFF FOR NO REASON, SPEED DOES NOT MATTER. IF GOING FAST ENOUGH YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO COST TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD HOWEVER THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING IT JUST CUTS OFF. AFTER WAITING ABOUT 5 MINUTES YOU CAN RESTART THE CAR BUT HAVE NO ASSURANCE THAT IT WILL KEEP GOING. THIS HAS HAPPENED A TOTAL OF THREE TIMES. ONCE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, AND TWICE WHEN THERE WAS ENOUGH SPEED TO GET THE CAR TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. THE FIRST TIME WAS THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR AND HAD THAT REPLACED AND THE SERVICE MAN TOLD ME THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING FOR FAILURE. THE SECOND AND THIRD TIME NO WARNING BUT HAVE NOT FOUND OUT WHAT THE CAUSE S OF THIS PROBLEM WAS. I CONTACTED BUICK AND THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. GOT ON A BUICK FORUM AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL INSTANCES OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER BUICK LUCERNE'S. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR THIS PROBLEM ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE NOT WARNING OF SUDDEN STOPS. BUICK NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS AND PURSUE THIS WITH DILIGENCE BEFORE THERE IS A CAR PILE UP ON A FREEWAY. THANKS *TR
