2006 BUICK LACROSSE Electrical System Problems

So many issues with the Buick. Made of glass. First I had no coolant line and I took it to be inspected before at, Baumen Ford and they said everything was fine with it. Turns out needed new coolant line, head gasket, timing cover, and switch. 5 new tires, rebuilt transmission, epc solenoid, transmission lines, rear pivot, left front wheel barring, formed band, and many many more. Currently with everything replaced and more that I haven’t listed/can’t state because don’t know the term. Already Has costed me 10k. And still have issues, with the APP, code P1125, P2120, P2138, & C0240. Need to inspect these car Models from 2003-2009 as they all have similar issues and nothing has been done.

LOW-BEAM HEADLAMPS TURNED OFF WHILE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING. HIGH-BEAM LIGHTS STILL FUNCTIONAL. WHILE DRIVING, MY HEADLIGHTS WOULD SUDDENLY TURN OFF WITHOUT WARNING, AND I'D HAVE TO USE MY HIGH-BEAMS. AFTER A FEW SECONDS, THEY WOULD COME BACK ON. THIS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES, BUT NOW THE LOW-BEAMS DON'T COME ON AT ALL. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT MY VIN ISN'T INCLUDED FOR SOME REASON.

HELLO, MY 2006 BUICK LACROSSE REGULAR BEAM HEADLIGHTS KEEPS GOING OUT DUE TO THE WIRING GETTING HOT FOR SOME REASON. NO AFTERMARKET HIGHLIGHTS OR BULBS BEEN ADDED. THE WIRING IS MELTING COMPLETELY. YOU CAN SEE SMOKE COMING FROM THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. I'M ALSO EXPERIENCING MY ENTIRE DASH GOES OUT WHILE DRIVING FOR 2-SECONDS THEN COMES BACK ON, I'M NOT SURE IF THE WIRING THAT'S SHORTING OUT FROM MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS AFTER BURNING IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE OR NOT SINCE THE WIRES BEGINS TO TOUCH AFTER THE WIRE COVERING IS BURNED. I CONTACTED BUICK THE MANUFACTURE, AND THEY ARE GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND ASKING ME QUESTIONS THAT DOESN'T EVEN PERTAIN TO THE ISSUES AT HAND, LIKE WHEN WAS YOUR LAST OIL CHANGE? THIS ISSUE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND CAN CAUSE A FIRE AND PREVENT VISIBILITY FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS TO SEE ME AT NIGHT, PLUSH GETTING...

RECALL IN 2014 RE: IGNITION SWITCH FAILURE OF MORE THAN ONE KEY ON KEYRING IN IGNITION. WEIGHT WOULD CAUSE CAR TO SHUTDOWN(TURN OFF IGNITION) IN A CRASH THUS NOT ALLOWING AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. RECALL STARTED IN 2014. DID NOT OWN THE CAR UNTIL 2017. WAS NOT AWARE OF RECALL. SON WAS INJURED IN CRASH OF SUCH VEHICLE ON 2/16/19. HIT A TELEPHONE POLE AT APPROXIMATELY 60MPH. FRONT NOR SIDE CURTAINS DID NOT DEPLOY RESULTING IN SEVERE TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY TO BRAIN STEM. WAS IN COMA FOR 6 DAYS. 10 WEEKS IN ICU AND REHAB. IS IMPAIRED NOW EFFECTS WALKING , SPEECH, ADL SKILLS, MEMORY. WILL NEED LONG TERM CARE.WS TRAVELING G ON A RURAL ROAD, HIT PATCH OF BLACK ICE, O ERCORRECTED AND SLID ACROSS ROAD HITTING UTILITY POLE AT 60-70 MPH.. NEEDED TO BE EXTRICATED FROM VEHICLE, UNCONSCIOUS VICIOUS, WAS WEARING SEATBELT. *DT VIN NOT AVAILABLE.*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 BUICK LACROSSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOW BEAM, HIGH BEAM, DAY TIME RUNNING LAMPS, AND EMERGENCY/HAZARD LIGHTING FAILED TO FUNCTION INTERMITTENTLY. THE FAILURE OCCURRED MORE THAN TWICE. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN IF THE LIGHTS WOULD OPERATE PROPERLY DURING THE EVENING HOURS. JOHN JONES AUTO GROUP CORYDON (1735 GARDNER LN NW, CORYDON, IN 47112, (812) 722-4146) INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A MANUFACTURER RECALL AND HAD NOT SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE AND REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,000. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK AND WILL NOT OPEN. IT WILL NOT UNLOCK WITH THE LOCK BUTTON OR WITH THE KEY. I HAVE TO CLIMB OVER THE PASSENGER SEAT TO ENTER AND EXIT THE VEHICLE. I LOOKED THE PROBLEM UP ONLINE AND FOUND THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR IN AN ACCIDENT.

EVERY TIME I GET IN THE CAR THE LIGHTS WON'T STAY ON. I CHANGE THE BULBS AND IT STILL DOING THE SAME THING. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IGNITION IS ACTING UP TO.

WHEN CAR IS OFF, THE HEADLIGHTS COME ON RANDOMLY THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND NIGHT. THIS IS DRAINING THE BATTERY AND THE CAR IS UNABLE TO START. CAR WAS PURCHASED IN 2016 AND THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING RANDOMLY FOR 2 YEARS.

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, BOTH HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE AREA THAT I LIVE IS RURAL AND BACK ROADS DO NOT HAVE STREET LIGHTS. WHILE THE BRIGHTS WERE WORKING, THAT ALSO CREATED A HAZARDOUS CONDITION, AS THE BRIGHTS COULD TEMPORARILY BLIND AN ONCOMING DRIVER, ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS ON NARROW 2 LANE ROADS. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO ART MORAN BUICK DEALERSHIP AND I PAID OVER $300.00 TO REPLACE HEADLIGHT MODULE. I WAS TOLD THAT GM ONLY COVERED THIS FROM DATE OF PURCHASE TO 12 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES. THIS HAPPENED SIX MONTHS PAST THAT DATE. THE CAR HAS 98,300 MILES ON IT AS OF TODAY. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD, AND NHTSA SHOULD REQUIRE A FULL RECALL. I HAVE THE RECALL LETTER FROM GM, AS WELL AS THE PAID BILL FOR THE REPAIR FROM THE BUICK DEALER. HOWEVER, I AM NOT A COMPUTER GENIOUS, SO TELL ME HOW I CAN...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 BUICK LACROSSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE KEY WAS GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN.

THE DEALER DID NOT PROVIDE A SPECIFIC REMEDY TO DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE OTHER THAN TELLING THE CONTACT TO REPLACE THE BULB AND, IF THE FAILURE RECURRED, TO BRING THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE BULBS FOR THE LOW BEAMS, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. *TT *TR

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON BOTH SIDES STOPPED FUNCTIONING. HIGH BEAMS STILL WORK. VERIFIED THAT BULBS AND/OR FUSES WERE NOT THE PROBLEM. SAME ISSUE AS NHTSA RECALL 15V519000 GM RECALL 14291. CONTACTED GM WHO CLAIMED MY PARTICULAR CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL. AS MENTIONED IN PREVIOUS COMMENTS, THAT MAKES NO SENSE. IF ITS THE SAME PROBLEM AS OTHER RECALLED CARS HAD WHY ISN'T MY CAR ALSO RECALLED? IN MY OPINION GM NEEDS TO RECALL ALL CARS WITH THIS PROBLEM OR SUPPLY A VALID REASON WHY SOME CARS ARE EXCLUDED FROM THE RECALL.

THE HDM MODULE FAILED LEAVING NO LOW BEAMS WHILE DRIVING IN A RURAL AREA AT NIGHT. VIN WAS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL ALLOWING BUICK TO IGNORE THE PROBLEM AND LEAVE THE OWNER TO PAY. *TR

STEERING KNUCKLE- WAS REPLACED ONCE YEARS AGO UNDER WARRANTY BUT IS NOW STARTING TO MAKE NOISE AGAIN CONSISTENTLY WORSE FOR THE LAST 1-2 YEARS.FOR MONTHS NOW, WE'VE NOTICED THAT OCCASIONALLY THE CAR WILL ACT WEIRD. THE THROTTLE WILL BE LESS RESPONSIVE AND IT WILL ALMOST ACT LIKE IT'S MISSING ON A COUPLE CYLINDERS OR SO, BUT IT HAS NEVER SET A CODE FOR IT. THE SHIFT POINTS ARE RAISED AND YOU HAVE TO DRASTICALLY GIVE IT MORE THROTTLE TO GET THE CAR TO ACCELERATE, BUT WHEN IT DOES, IT KINDA LIKE SURGES AND THEN IT SHIFTS HARDER. ONCE IT IS IN ROAD GEAR AND CRUISING, THE CAR SURGES WHILE AT A CONSTANT SPEED, IT CAN BE FELT THAT THE CAR SURGES AND DOESN'T REMAIN TOTALLY SMOOTH AND CONSISTENT LIKE IT SHOULD. AN ENGINE RESTART USUALLY STOPS IT FOR THAT TIME. WE HAVE THE SAME SPORADIC PROBLEM AND HAVE HAD FOR...

FOR YEARS, THE CAR HAS HAD "ELECTRICAL GREMLINS". THERE MIGHT BE TIMES WE DRIVE IT AND NOTHING HAPPENS OUT OF THE ORDINARY EXCEPT THE SES LIGHT IS ON BECAUSE OF THE TOP LISTED PROBLEM, BUT THEN THERE ARE TIMES (MORE TIMES THAN NOT) THAT JUST THE CAR MOVING, SOMETIMES WHEN HITTING A BUMP, SOMETIMES WORSE WHEN RAINING/WET ROADS THAT THE DINGER WILL GO OFF AND THE DASH WILL RESET AND WILL SAY ?SERVICE BRAKE SYSTEM? ALONG WITH A FEW OF THE DASH LIGHTS LIGHTING UP FOR A FEW SECONDS WITH THE MESSAGE. SOMETIMES WHEN IT HAPPENS THEN IT WILL ALSO SAY ?TRACTION CONTROL OFF? WHICH MIGHT SAY IT FOR JUST A FEW SECONDS AND THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES IT SAID IT UNTIL I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT. THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN TIMES THAT THE RED ABS LIGHT HAS STAYED ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH AFTER THIS HAPPENS. SOMETIMES...
