Buick Lacrosse 2011 Power Train Automatic Transmission Review #10363813

BUICK LACROSSE 2011 car safety problem was reported on Oct 28, 2010.BUICK LACROSSE 2011, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . upon leaving dealership after purchase of new car, turned right to exit and transmission jumped into neutral, almost rear-ended. thought i may have hit shifter. another turn from stop and trans jumped into neutral during turn while entering traffic. just missed being hit and perhaps killed. manually returned to "d". life threatening defect. ret to dealer and demonstrated. next day dealer advised that a "module" on the transmission was installed backwards by gm mfg. advised gm day after occurrence. later gm called and told me car had been repaired and get it or "they" would charge me storage. obviously, after exposing wife and myself to great risk, we did not want that vehicle. now gm will not speak to me as i try to ensure that the autos produced prior and post to mine were verified to ensure they did not have the same life threatening defect and react accordingly. gm seems not to care. pls note: the car "dropped" from drive in neutral everytime i accelerated from a turn into traffic. this problem was demonstrated to the dealer; dealer said park it now. question is how many buicks were manufactured with this very dangerous defect. the 2 times this happened, prior to knowledge of the/a problem, if i had not been able to return to "drive" and proceed with maximum acceleration, we would have been unquestionably hit by approaching cars. had my wife been driving, her reaction would have been slower and she could have easily been killed. this is life threatening. i delayed contacting the ntsb in that i believed gm would take action. i do not believe that to be the situation. help - lives are definitely at risk if any cars prior to or after mine have this defect. suspect poorly trained individual on the line that day "filling" in. poor engineering as dealer stated the part was so designed as it could be installed backwards. please confirm you are taking action as this is a critical defect that could very easily result in death or serious injury as i cannot confirm gm action. *tr.Mileage was 176 miles.

Buick Lacrosse 2011 Suspension Front Review #10370855

BUICK LACROSSE 2011 car safety problem was reported on Nov 17, 2010.BUICK LACROSSE 2011, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with SUSPENSION:FRONT . we bought a new 2011 buick lacrosse cxs 11-15-10, drove it 200 miles and the front suspension failed in costco parking lot at 10 mph and no impact. the rim popped open at the center seam creating a big oval opening that locked up on the brake caliper, stopping the wheel which snapped the tie rod end, letting the tire wedge into the inner fender then the a-arm bent and caused some damage to the engine cradle. my wife cracked her head on the side window it went down so fast. the general motors engineer came to investigate the incident, found no impact damage, but refused to discuss the structural failure of the left front suspension. the tire shows no impact bruises and the rim has no damage except for a small chunk on the inside of the rim where the steering ram popped the rim when it locked into the inter fender. my point: if this happened at highway speed it would have caused a major accident. the rim started this chain reaction, but at such a minor speed the suspension should not have failed. i was told that this is a new suspension for the 2011 cxs sport model. please look into this. i do not want to risk my families safety when i feel uncomfortable with the structural integrity of this new suspension and have ask for a refund. gm has denied my request, and now it goes to my attorney. please look into this for consumer safety. *tr .Mileage was 200 miles.

BUICK LACROSSE 2011 car safety problem was reported on Nov 10, 2010.BUICK LACROSSE 2011, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . this vehicle has the push button keyless start. page 10-89 of the owner manual describes the method to move the transmission lever from park to neutral without starting the engine, for the purpose of towing the vehicle or moving it without starting the engine (if the car battery is dead or the engine will not start for any other reason), such as onto a tow truck for transport to a service center. the manual says to set the parking brake (this cannot be done if the car battery is dead because the parking brake is electrically operated), select the accessory mode (by pushing the start button to show an amber light as described on page 9-20), then squeeze the small lever on the front of the transmission lever, and move it from park to neutral. this does not work. the lever cannot be moved out of park. applying the foot brake does not help. i took the car to liberty buick in peoria, az, and described the problem to salesmen and service advisors. none of them could make it work or explain why. this procedure was tried with another lacrosse with the keyless start feature and it also did not work, verifying that this is a problem with all lacrosse keyless start vehicles. this procedure works with a "keyed start" vehicle if the key is turned to the �on� position (not the �accessory� position as stated in the manual). apparently, insufficient testing was done on this feature and it was not correctly programmed into the electronic system of the vehicle. the interlock between the engine, brake, and transmission lever is not released in the accessory mode and there is no �on� position for the keyless ignition without starting the engine. this means that if my car is in my garage or on a road and the battery is dead or the engine will not start, i will be unable to move it out of the garage or out of traffic or onto a tow truck..Mileage was 200 miles.

BUICK LACROSSE 2011 car safety problem was reported on Nov 10, 2013.BUICK LACROSSE 2011, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SEATS . i recently bought a used 2011 buick lacrosse cxl. i like the car a lot but after a few trips i noticed that my neck and head position was constantly being pushed forward making me more and more uncomfortable. i also noticed that the headrest is so large that it is difficult to see behind me especially to the left for oncoming traffic or obstacles. i understand that the manufacturers were required by nhtsa to make the headrests too far forward and too large for "safety" reasons. if so, you have succeeded in making my time behind the wheel both uncomfortable and less safe because my neck is constantly being pushed forward and i can't see behind me very well. i doubt that you will respond or, more unlikely, make changes to improve this problem but i have to do something to express my outrage at what you have done. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 8797 miles.

BUICK LACROSSE 2011 car safety problem was reported on Apr 05, 2014.BUICK LACROSSE 2011, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . on more than 10-15 occasions i've experienced intermittent failure of the keyless ignition, whereby there is only one click and then no ability to start my vehicle unless i continue to press the button while turning off any and all ac, radio, power etc. i purchased the car used 1 year ago in excellent condition but noticed that it already had a new battery that was installed earlier in 2013.the vehicle is a 2011 and that seemed very odd. what i've noticed is that the battery terminals continually corrode mostly on the "positive" terminal and i've removed and brushed them several times and tighten, and that seems to work when it just absolutely won't start. big inconvenience when i'm usually dressed in a suit... unfortunately, i've taken it to three different gm buick dealerships over the past month and a half and it never will reproduce the defect when i'm there, so they've not been able to evaluate and remedy. noticed service bulletin pi-0412 for parasitic drain/discharge so now i'll take it to another dealership to see if they can determine the cause based on this. very frustrating to not be able to have this diagnosed and corrected before i potentially find myself totally stranded away from home. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Buick Lacrosse 2011 problem was reported in BUFORD, GA.
