The subframe rotted into rusted into
Front subframe rotted out where my control arm connects. Cannot safetly drive. There should be a recall on this part. There isnt one so now im stuck paying to fix it. Rear coil spring cracked, cannot fix due to recall of all gm coil spring. Cannot buy new part to fix it.
Driving 50km per hr, went over railway crossing, then the car became unstable, rear felt loose as if it was drifting. Stopped the car had a look under the cars driver side rear end, and noticed the bar connecting tire the rest of vehicle was fractured, don't know the exact name of it. The car only has a out 145000 km on it. I live in Canada. The consumer has stated that the rear tow link was the part that was broken.
The contact owns a 2011 Buick Regal. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 25 MPH, there was a squeaking noise coming from the wheels and the vehicle was driving very loosely. The contact noticed that the lower control arm in the rear of the vehicle was fractured. The contact was a certified mechanic and diagnosed that the rear suspension needed to be replaced. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 180,000.
Broken left side rear lateral toe link causing severe vehicle stability issue. Subsequent inspection of right side shows initial crack in same area.
THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO WANT TO CUT OFF WHILE AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT! I SIMPLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE ENGINE SEEMS TO BE SO LOUD. I HAD BOTH SHOCKS AND STRUTS REPLACED AFTER PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE. THE ENTIRE FRAME SEEMS TO NOSE DIVE OR "WANDER" WHILE I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, TOTALLY UNCOMFORTABLE FEELING. TIRES ARE BASICALLY NEW I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT SEEMS TO BE GOING ON WITH THIS CAR!
