"From the first week, it started making an awful noise when backing up. I've had it in the shop 3 times and they say they don't hear it. They don't hear it but my neighbors sure do! Sometimes it does it when driving down a hill. Why can't the Buick service people hear it?"

The back camera has never worked correctly. It shows the driver to be 10 feet away from an object, when in reality you are 1 0 inches away. Doesn't help parking at all. And it's blurry! The little push button on the parking brake broke off and it's $300.00 to replace it. My favorite car was a '64 Buick Special and I never should have sold it! Best car ever!"
