“While making a right hand turn I heard a pop noise simultaneously vehicle dipped harshly with the handling and steering control compromised.

NHTSA complaint #10917373, filed 2016-10, 105,200 miles“I own a 2007 Buick Lacrosse cxl. It has had a vibration in it since it was delivered.

NHTSA complaint #10214535, filed 2008-01, 108 miles“Control arm bushing failed, causing the control arm to grind into the sub frame of the car. The sub frame is aluminum and was damaged very quickly.

The sub frame could fail completely causing steering suspension and brakes to fail.”

The low beam head lights went out one at a time; when replaced , both went out at the same time. After that both high beams went out at the same time and had to be replaced. The driver's door handle has broken twice in 18 months. The transmission began to slip after that. The driver seat belt light often remained on while seat-belt is connected. While traveling on a wet road I attempted to brake prior to a water puddle when the car slid sideways off the road into a soggy-bog and spun 2.5 times in a circle in app. …”
