BUICK VERANO 2014 car safety problem was reported on July 17, 2014.BUICK VERANO 2014, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . THIS IS SECOND INCIDENT OF SAME FAILURE; OF CAR STOPPING RUNNING WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY. ( ODI#10606705) THE LOCATION AND EASE OF TURNING THE CAR OFF WHILE IN MOTION IS VERY UNSAFE. I WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY 73 MPH WHEN I REACHED UP TO REDIRECT THE LEFT CENTER AIR VENT AWAY FROM ME. IN TURNING THE WHEEL FOR CONTROL OF AIR SPEED UNDOUBTEDLY MY KNUCKLE GRAZED THE ON/OFF STARTER BUTTON AND THE CAR ODOMETER TOOK AN IMMEDIATE DROP TO ZERO. AS I STATED BEFORE YOU CANNOT PUT THE CAR IN PARK OR NEUTRAL, STEP ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND RESTART THE CAR AT INTERSTATE SPEED. I REENACTED THIS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AT SLOW SPEED AND THE SAME THING HAPPENS. THE ON/OFF BUTTON SHOULD NOT BE IN A GROUP WITH ALL THE OTHER BUTTONS, IT SHOULD BE PLACED OFF TO THE SIDE AND SEPARATED FROM THEM BY A SECTION OF DASHBOARD MATERIAL. THIS IS A VERY SHOCKING EXPERIENCE AND ONE THAT IS TOTALLY UNEXPECTED! I CAN SEE WHAT COULD OCCUR IF A PERSON WERE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE WAY OF SEMI'S ETC. PLEASE LET BUICK KNOW ABOUT THIS DEFECT !!!!!.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 2400 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G4PS5SK0E4.

BUICK VERANO 2014 car safety problem was reported on Sept 16, 2014.BUICK VERANO 2014, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX 70 MPH MY KNEE BUMPED THE KEY/IGNITION AND THE CAR TURNED OFF. I BELIEVE THE KEY ACTUALLY TURNED IN THE IGNITION. THIS APPEARS TO BE THE RESULT OF THE COMBINATION OF THE LOCATION OF THE IGNITION SWITCH, THE DESIGN OF THE KEY FOB AND THE KEY CHAIN AND TAG THAT THE RENTAL CAR COMPANY USES. I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE IN MODERATELY HEAVY TRAFFIC. I HAD THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED SO MY FOOT WAS NOT PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR. I HAD THE SOLE OF MY SHOE FLAT ON THE FLOOR AND MY KNEE BENT. I WAS APPROXIMATELY 3 HOURS INTO A LONG TRIP AND IDLY SHIFTED MY POSITION. SOMEHOW THE KEY CHAIN, FOB, 2ND KEY AND TAG HAD ALIGNED IN SUCH A WAY THAT MY KNEE WAS ABLE TO BUMP THEM AND APPLY ROTATIONAL LEVERAGE IN SUCH A WAY AS TO TURN THE KEY FROM ON TO OFF. FORTUNATELY, I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE ON A RELATIVELY FLAT/STRAIGHT SECTION OF INTERSTATE AND THERE WAS A WIDE PAVED SHOULDER. I PUT ON MY FLASHERS, MOVED ONTO THE SHOULDER AND WAS ABLE TO STEER AND BRAKE WELL ENOUGH TO STOP THE CAR SAFELY. I WAS THEN ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AND CONTINUE. I HAVE PICTURES AVAILABLE OF THE KEY FOB/CHAIN ARRANGEMENT..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 15600 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G4PR5SK1E4.

Check your back springs. Was getting an oil change and while up in the air discovered both rear springs were broken. Cost to replace, $1000.00. Having trouble with gase gauge and driver's side heated seat. Wanting to know how to fix that a how do i fix fual guage problem of my buick allure 1992 buick regal stall andhesitat when applying gas in between changing gears Have a 2000 Buick Century Custom with only 48000 miles, after start up, car would not move in any gear, but I was able to move it by racing engine, rear brakes can be heard dragging, no warning lights on dash. Car has been driven past week during On my 2010 Buick Lacrosse - the tire pressure monitoring readout is reading opposite for the front and back tires. As well, it appears that the left and right side tires are reversed in their readout. Just wonder if anyone else has had this proble my century when in driving surges and hesitates real bad. on freeway other drivers are honking at me. i think it may not be shifting properly Does the 2001 Buick LeSabre have frontal airbags including on passenger side? Same erratic problem with our 2011 Buick Regal Turbo. My 89 buick riviera has trouble cold starting but the engine will turn on and will start on first crank everytime after. Its the first start and in the a.m. it takes longer. Is it a fuel problem or electrical? A few minutes after parking 2011 Buick Regal Turbo in garage there is a strong gas smell. Never notice this with any other car. What's going on? where is the on and off switch for the dome light on a 1996 buick le sabre
ABS light comes on while driving and you can feel the brakes pulsing. Sometimes at a stop light the ABS sets itself and you have to force the car to move. Then it lets go and you can proceed. Had 2 new sensor installed, and it did not st
