What owners say
Tl*the contact owns a 1994 buick lesabre. The vehicle was purchased in july of 2008 and continues to stall while driving 50 MPH or less. The vehicle lost power and the engine completely shut off. The weather conditions were dry. When the failure occurs, the vehicle becomes difficult to control because there is no power steering or braking ability. Occasionally, the vehicle takes longer than a minute to restart. The vehicle has to be towed to the dealer each time. The vehicle is currently at the dealer, but they cannot diagnose the cause of the failure. The failure mileage was 125,000. Updated 12/12/08 *cn updated 12/15/08.

Vehicle stalls without warning, dealer can not find any problems due to service engine soon light does not come on, the ignition module has been replaced, however problem still exists.
The problem is that the car will die while driving and I have to coast over to the shoulder of the road and stop. The car will not restart and I have to wait about 5 to 10 minutes before it will restart. This has happened 3 times (twice during the week of 3/13/00). I brought the car into the dealer but they were not able to find the problem. I am still driving the car but I feel it is a very unsafe situation as a very bad accident can happen when the car stalls out at highway speeds.
