2024 BUICK ENVISTA Unknown Or Other Problems

I am writing to report a serious and ongoing safety issue with my vehicle. While I was actively driving in traffic, my car suddenly shut off completely without warning. This occurred while the vehicle was in motion, creating an immediate and dangerous situation. During this incident, the steering wheel locked up multiple times while I was driving, making it extremely difficult to control the vehicle and safely maneuver through traffic. This put not only my safety at risk, but also the safety of other drivers on the road. In addition to this, there are multiple mechanical and safety-related issues with the vehicle: •The driver’s seat is stuck and cannot be adjusted. •The front doors will not lock. •The back doors will not unlock. These issues significantly increase the risk of injury or harm in the event of an emergency, accident, or even while the vehicle is parked. Given that the vehicle shut off in traffic and experienced steering lock while driving, I do not feel the car is safe to operate. I am requesting that this matter be reviewed urgently, as this vehicle presents a serious safety hazard to myself and others. Please advise on the next steps for inspection, coverage, or resolution as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter

Sunroof glass shattered on I-5 south approx 1215pm just before the Nisqually exit. We looked for cause of the incident but could not find debris/rocks that could've been the cause. Also, there wasn't much glass inside the car, the remnants puckered upwards. The glass shatter seemed to come out of the blue; weather was grey but no rain or sprinkles at the time. We pulled over at the next exit which was Nisqually to look at the damage and to tape up the car.

Needed to jack up the car to change the tire. There is a Jack included with the car. Upon using it in the correct spot in accordance with the owners manual, the Jack began to significantly bend while trying to raise the car to change the tire! It looked so unsafe that we abandoned the tire change. If I were on the side of the road, trying to use this, it could be deadly.

To whom it may concern, I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding the safety and reliability of my leased vehicle. I have been experiencing ongoing issues that pose a serious safety risk. Approximately two months into my lease, I began experiencing electrical problems with the vehicle. The most concerning issue is the car's tendency to shut down unexpectedly while driving, which has escalated over time. Each incident has resulted in significant concern for my safety and that of my passengers, as well as for other drivers on the road. I visited the dealership to report the problem and get the car serviced but I was unfortunately met with unprofessional behavior, and was asked to leave the dealership without resolution. Despite my repeated attempts to address the ongoing issues, I have been unable to find a suitable solution. Additionally, the lack of available loaner vehicles has made it increasingly difficult to have the vehicle serviced. Driving a vehicle that is prone to unexpected shutdowns is not only inconvenient but poses a significant safety hazard. I am deeply concerned that continued use of this vehicle may lead to an accident, endangering myself, my family, and others on the road. Given the seriousness of these safety issues, I am formally requesting an investigation into these matters. I believe it is essential for this situation to be addressed promptly to ensure that necessary measures are taken to prevent accidents and protect consumers. Please let me know if further information is required to support my complaint. I appreciate your attention to this serious matter and look forward to your prompt response.

The DASHBOARD keeps changing while driving, and the dealer states they have fixed it. I have had 2 dashboards replaced since I purchased the car (1 year) and this unsafe while driving my GPS keeps changing while driving. This is VERY UNSAFE! The SUNROOF WILL NOT CLOSE, until the next day. It rains inside my car because it will not close, so I can not use my sunroof PERIOD. This is one of the reasons I purchased the car. NOW, my CHECK ENGINE LIGHT is on for EMISSIONS SYSTEM (IT IS CRITICAL THAT YOU TAKE CARE OF THIS PROMPTLY TO MAINTAIN SAFETY). The dealer held my car for 3 days, and now they state "they requested the part, but no one told them (from the manufacture) that the part is not available due to problems with the current part and they have to rebuild the part, and it's on back order". Now, I'm riding around with a check engine light on until Nobody knows when! I don't trust this dealer, who told me its okay to drive like this AND we will call you when the part comes in. They stated they fixed my dashboard and its still not fixed. They don't know when, they will have the part for my sunroof or my emissions issue, and my dashboard is still not working and I have to borrow someone car to travel because my GPS and Engine light is on. A brand new car and it has been in the shop (6 times) more than any car I have owned. I pay my car not on time and I keep my car serviced, but this not fair to me and I need help please.

SUNROOF will not close, and yes, it is available for inspection upon request. Hard to drive because of the pouring down rain, and unable to close sunroof. I have called the dealership and was asked to bring it in for inspection, but the next morning it closed without problem. 2 days later it did the exact same thing. I waited 1 before opening again and when I tried to close the sunroof, it would NOT close again, until the next day. Now, I do not open it all. I have NOT had it inspected by anyone since it looked at the first time. No, warning lamps or messages prior or after since this has started.

The instrument panel intermittently blacks out while driving. I have taken it back to the dealer twice and they are unable to reproduce the issue. The first time, they said it was a software issue and ran an update, but that did not fix the problem. I found online that this is a known issue so I contacted Buick Customer Care. They checked my VIN and said there are no recalls on my car at this time. How can I get my car on the recall list? This is very disturbing and I do not intend to drive the car until this can be rectified. Please help!

While driving down the road to work on the expressway both my screens blacked out couldn’t see my speed and then came back on it did this multiples times on my 30 minute drive to work one way and multiple times on my 30 minute drive home. It’s done this for the last week. It’s very scary to know you can’t see your speed or don’t know if your car is suddenly going to shut off going down an expressway that people are going 75 mph and could hit me. It shows my vin is not part of the recall but is doing exactly what the recall is describing.

The horn doesn't work or when you lock the vehicle using the key fob the horn doesn't blow then either notifying you that the vehicle is secured and locked. My vehicle is less than a year old with this defect and this poses as a safety hazard when driving to alert other drivers or prevent an accident.

Our 2024 Buick Envista’s air conditioner does not work. The car has less than 2500 miles on it. It is in the shop for the second time. If you google search ‘Buick Envista Air Conditioner’ you’ll find multiple forums where a number of 2024 Envista owners are having the exact same issue and like me experiencing no resolve with the dealerships. I’m requesting the NHTSA consider a recall on this vehicle please! Driving children in extreme heat is NOT SAFE.

On Friday, September 13, 2024, without warning, the instrument panel that shows the speed of the car (and left and right turn signals), turned off and went black (blank), while I was driving my brand new Buick, Envista. It was less than three months old at the time. The car’s mileage was at about 1,000 miles. I did not know what speed my car was going, other than by watching cars around me. I did not know if the car’s turn signals were working. I did not know if the car’s brake lights were working. I did not know if traffic behind me would know if I was coming to a stop or planning a turn. VERY SCARY!!!! I was so worried about a possible traffic accident occurring if none of the car’s turn signals and/or brake signals weren’t working. My wife was so scared she didn’t want to ride in the car any more! I called onstar and they ran a diagnostic check of the car, while the screen was black, but they found nothing wrong. I printed the onstar report and brought it to the dealer. I drove the car to the dealer on Monday, Sept 16 so they could diagnose the problem. They could not duplicate the instance as shown on their ticket number, BUCS508706. Buick customer service assigned a case number and advised driving the car to the dealer immediately should this black/Blank screen happen again so they can see the problem while the car is still running.

The instrument panel intermittently blacks out during vehicle startup or while driving. I haven't had my vehicle for 30 days and it's happened many many times, almost caused an accident due to the distraction it has caused. No warning signs prior to the screen blacking out. Service calibrated/reprogrammed the radio but issues have continued. I have several photos and videos of the numerous times this has happened.

I bought my car in January with 7 miles on it. Back in February I tried to get back into my car and my car would not unlock from the remote or from my Buick app. The car was not responding. I had to wait 20 mins and remove the battery 3 times from the remote for it to work. Then I cannot connect my phone or my car does not respond to me pressing any buttons on my steering wheel.

2024 Buick Envista: My driver side mirror vibrates when driving above 50-55 mph. The housing itself does not vibrate or shake. My passenger side mirror does not vibrate. I can see the traffic behind me but the lights apear fuzzy when when it’s dark outside. I had it at the dealership today (1/8/2024) and was told they drove another Envista and it exhibited the same issue. However, the said they could not fix as there is no fix for it. I have reached out to Buick via X (Twitter) and they kept referring me back to the dealership as there is no recall at this time. I feel that this is a safety issue for me driving, especially if it gets worse. I would like for Buick to acknowledge the problem and fix my mirror.
