Example complaints

“The dash-pad has separated... And curled! The entire top dash-pad has lifted 2 inches, directly in front of the driver's steering wheel.....this is causing a severe safety hazard! Visibility has been blocked! I am afraid for my safety! Please investigate!”

NHTSA complaint #10937406, filed 2016-12, 128,000 miles

“The rear driver side power window failed. There was a loud pop and the window slid half way down and would not go back up. I talked to my mechanic, and he said that it was a cable that broke. He knew instantly because he had replaced many of them in similar Buick lesabres. We know of two friends personally who have had the same problem. For one friend, it happened on more than one window in her car. To get it fixed at the dealership cost nearly $500. It appears to us that this is a faulty part and that the auto maker should recall and repair it at their cost.”

NHTSA complaint #10133657, filed 2005-08, 71,000 miles

“When the car was purchased there were no dashpad flaws. Car was and still is garage kept. The dashpad has been lifting across the entire width of the pad from front to rear and exposing the structure underneath. This includes the passenger side airbag area which the dash pad is completly lifted and not sure if airbag is exposed.”

NHTSA complaint #10462760, filed 2012-06, 63,000 miles

“Dash is separating causing it to pull apart at passenger airbag and glove compartment. Worried air bag will deploy and harm someone or not work at all. Can't open glove compartment anymore.”

NHTSA complaint #10885890, filed 2016-07, 60,000 miles

“The dashboard on our Buick Lesabre custom is separating from the windshield causing a safety hazard that could expose the air bag on the passenger side. It is also separating from the AC vents. It is also causing a hazard for the driver's vision.”
