My 2014 buick encore at random times when i turn the key to start the vehicle it just clicks once then complete power out even though the battery is fully charged. To deal with the issue i need to open the hood, unplug the negative from the battery and reconnect it. Then try again. I do this at least once every week, sometimes multiple times throughout a single day. It also does it when a new battery is used. Ive also has a mechanic inspect the vehicle and was so frustrated that everything seems okay but just couldnt figure out why the vehicle don't start. 12 hours of searching for the source of the problem , after giving up on the vehicle i turn the key and it turned on. Other time the vehicle will turn off when already driving. I need this problem fixed. I honestly regret financing this vehicle in january 2024. I was dealing with this problem since may 2024. 73000miles when i bought the vehicle and now at 84000mile. Half of the year 2024 it's been repeat problems with this vehicle. This vehicle should have been a lemon.

The painting on my 2015 buick encore started peeling about 2 years ago and has continued to worsen, and i am concerned about the longevity and overall appearance of my vehicle. As a loyal customer, i expect the paint job to last for a reasonable amount of time, and i believe this issue should be addressed by the manufacturer. I would like to request that buick fixes this issue free of charge. I understand that my vehicle is no longer under warranty. This is particularly concerning as the peeling paint is affecting the resale value of my car, and i would like to maintain its value as much as possible. I understand that paint issues can occur, and i appreciate that this is not necessarily a reflection on the overall quality of the vehicle. However, i am requesting that buick take responsibility for this issue and repair the paint free of charge. I believe that the paint peeling issue is covered under the vehicle's warranty, and i hope that i am hopeful that buick will make every effort to keep this cost to a minimum and to ensure that i am not left out of pocket for a problem that is beyond my control.

I have an automatic transmission. When i am stopped at a traffic light on an incline, the car will sometimes roll backwards with my foot on the brake or when changing my foot to the gas pedal to move forward once the light changes. The more the incline; the worse the problem. This happens at a bus stop in a community with an incline and kids at a bus stop. This feeling is as i am driving a manual vehicle. It's not a good feeling knowing that there's children around and knowing that we want our children around for the future and something like this happens with a vehicle, the service department in the dealership cannot find what the problem is. This has happened to my car more than once. I have complained about it once and i am complaining about it again. I have low mi on my car and now, this has happened between the low miles of my car after purchasing up to miles. I have on it now. I've got 110,000 mi on my car and it still is not being repaired and is still happening. And it's bad. Once the car is paid off it turns into multiple problems with my car. Up

Air conditioning cooling leak and the fan motor would not shut off unless disconnecting the battery cable. 08/26/2024 at 100,254 miles 3. The turbocharger inline for the oil intake has been replaced. The car cannot completely carry a full carload without having no power to get up hills. I have no power once in a while if i'm alone driving just on a straight road or going uphills it seems like there's no gas getting to it i have good gas but it doesn't happen all the time. And i guess to where it will slow down from 55 to 35 pushing on the gas pedal with no power at all and then all the sudden it will go. Trying to explain this the best i can. 09/29/2024 at 101, 313 miles
