MY FRONT DASHBOARD HAS BEEN GRADUALLY COMING UNATTACHED NEAR THE WINDSHIELD. IT HAS GOTTEN SO BAD THAT IT IS HINDERING MY VIEW OF THE ROAD. MY DAUGHTER IS JUST LEARNING TO DRIVE AND WE HAVE DECIDED IT IS NOT SAFE FOR HER TO USE MY VEHICLE BECAUSE HER VIEW OF THE ROAD IS BLOCKED BY THE LIFTED DASHBOARD. THIS IS TRULY A SAFETY HAZARD AND I CANNOT BELIEVE BUICK HAS REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS DEFECT WHICH IS AFFECTING SO MANY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 BUICK LESABRE. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW INDEPENDENTLY ROLLED DOWNWARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR FACILITY WHERE THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW AND REGULATOR MOTOR ASSEMBLY WERE REPLACED. IN ADDITION, THE MECHANIC ADVISED THAT THE REGULATOR MOTOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND THE FAILURE WOULD MOST LIKELY RECUR IN ALL OF THE OTHER WINDOWS. THE FAILURE HAS SINCE RECURRED ON THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR WINDOW AS WELL AS THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WINDOW. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE BOTH WINDOWS AND REGULATOR MOTOR ASSEMBLIES WERE REPLACED A SECOND TIME. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 49,176. UPDATED 07/29/10 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE FAILURE OCCURRED FOR A THIRD TIME. UPDATED 08/05/10*JB

I PURCHASED THE CAR ON A CLOUDY DAY. WHEN I DID, I DID NOT REALIZE THAT THERE WAS A SCRATCH IN THE WINDSHIELD. WHEN I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER, THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A USED CAR, IT WAS SOLD AS IS. IT WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY, NOT THEIRS. I THINK IT IS IRRESPONSIBLE OF THEM TO SELL A CAR WITH A SCRATCHED WINDSHIELD. *TR
