Used 2016 Buick Regal 1SV 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A) Consumer Reviews

Massive failure in a 2016 Buick Regal

Four months ago I leased a 2016 Buick regal 4 cylinder turbo. I thought it was a little overpriced and the ride a little too stiff. Also the blind spot monitoring in the side view mirrors lacks an audible signal which I have in my other cars and has literally saved my life. Still, it looked good inside and out , and my wife loved the red paint job, so I went ahead. WRONG!. After leasing Hondas and Toyotas for the past 15 years without a hint of a problem, in less than 1500 miles--THE TRANSMISSION BLEW! Now I don't want the repaired car- at 79 years old I don't need the hassle of another problem sometime in the next 3 years of the lease. But of course Buick and the dealer make you sweat blood to get a new one, so I guess I'm stuck, AVOID MY MISTAKE! Stick with the Japanese cars!
