Everything is Excellent Except Front Seat Comfort

2016 Buick Regal Premium II 4dr Sedan AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Excellent Value and great sedan. The only complaints are related to front seat comfort on longer trips and rear seat comfort for most people all of the time.

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!

My car now has 105k miles, I’ve made at least 100 roundtrips of about 300 miles and I’ve never been concerned about it failing me. It’s very comfortable, has a lot of features at a fraction of the cost, including that amazing Turbo. I’ve only done maintenance, 0 repairs so far, actually the info system is kind of funky but it still works. I love this car.

2016 Buick Regal Sport Touring 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

I bought this car cause it had 29000.miles I love the interior. But after driving it on back roads (where I live) I can feel an hear every bump it has a constant noise I can hear from the motor, it’s smooth on smooth roads, but my 2004 Cadillac drive smoother. Now I’m stuck with this car, I got rid of my 2016 Buick Regal, for months we had to deal with water pooling in the trunk, the authorized Buick dealer did everything to stop the leaks, my husband was livid when he figured out they drilled holes in bottom of trunk to rid it of water, ( dealer denied this) but Buick knows exactly how many holes in trunk. We finally got tired of dealing with the people who sold it to us, an traded the car in for a Caddy
