“It is probably a shorter list to list what we haven't had trouble with , but here goes. 1. The back power sliding doors will open and shut at will. Driving down the road, parted in the grocery store parking lot, etc. The neighborhood kids regularly come over to tell me my doors are open. My husband almost missed a flight because he spent to much time trying to fight with the door to stay shut. They have replaced almost every part of the doors several times, but was told by the dealership that last time I took it in they didn't know what to do now. 2. Door locks will lock and unlock at will. …”

“The automatic sliding doors won't close. It opens up again when the closing slide door touches the frame. This happens every a few days!! Very frustrating. And I saw there are 4 or 5 similar compliant reports on this already. So looks like it does happens on a number of vehicles already, not an isolated incident.”

“2006 Buick Terraza has vibration in the seats, floor and steering wheel. Consumer states that the vehicle still vibrates when reaching about 40 MPH. The vibration has now affected the whole vehicle. The dealer has made 5 repair attempts and will no longer attempt to repair the vibration problem. At 13,000 miles the ABS and stability system had to be repaired.”
