2007 Buick Terraza Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BUICK TERRAZA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOORS HAVE BEEN REPAIRED SEVEN TIMES. THE DOORS OPEN ERRATICALLY AND WILL OPEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS LOCKED. THEY WILL ALSO COME OPEN WHILE SHE IS DRIVING. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED MOTORS, SENSORS AND OTHER ITEMS AND THE FAILURE IS STILL PRESENT. THIS FAILURE IS PRESENT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND PASSENGER'S SIDE. THE CONTACT DRIVES HER GRAND CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE AND IS CONCERNED ABOUT THE DOORS OPENING WHEN THE CHILDREN ARE IN THE VEHICLE. THE OWNER WANTS GM TO BUY THE VEHICLE BACK, BUT THEY WILL NOT. THEY OFFERED TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON THE DOORS BUT THE CONTACT STATED THE WARRANTY IS NO GOOD IF THE DOORS DO NOT WORK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,800. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

THE AUTOMATIC DOORS WILL NOT CLOSE PROPERLY AND AT TIMES JUST OPEN UP. IF I AM ABLE TO CLOSE THE DOORS, THE DOOR ALARM CONTINUES TO SOUND AND WILL DO SO FOR SEVERAL HOURS. I HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT BY THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS FIXED SEVERAL TIMES. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW AND IT HAS LESS THAN 30000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE AND NO ONE WILL STAND BEHIND THE VEHICLE. *TR

REAR SHOCKS DO NOT PERFORM CORRECTLY. BRAUN RAISED THE BODY 2" WHEN MAKING THIS AN ENTERVAN. THE REAR SHOCKS NEVER DAMPENED MOVEMENT DURING THE FIRST 2" OF TRAVEL. WHEEL HOP CAUSED THE REAR TIRES TO CUP AND BECOME OUT OF BALANCE. WHEN ROTATED TO THE FRONT DURING NORMAL TIRE ROTATION, THE VAN BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP AND HANDLE. THIS HAPPENED IN LESS THAN 12,000 MILES. AFTER REPLACING REAR SHOCKS, AND ALL FOUR TIRES AT MY EXPENSE, THE VAN DRIVES SMOOTH AND SAFE WILL NO PROBLEMS STOPPING. *TR

WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS FILLED WITH 1/4 TANK OR BELOW AND IS PARKED ON A SLIGHT DECLINE, THE FUEL GAUGE WILL DROP BELOW EMPTY AND THE LOW FUEL LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE. SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE WILL HAVE A HARD TIME STARTING OR WILL NOT START AT ALL UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS PUSHED ONTO A MORE LEVEL SURFACE. IT HAS BEEN INTO THE DEALER 5 TIMES FOR THIS CONDITION AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. *TR

I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE SLIDING DOORS, THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE. AFTER ABOUT AND HOUR, GOT THE DOOR CLOSED AND NOW THE DOOR ALARM STAYS ON. HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET IT LOOKED AT. AFTER READING ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THESE DOORS, I THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE A RECALL TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR
