While leaving an intersection I was traveling down a slight hill , I heard a strange sound and realized I had no steering the wheel was turning ,but with no control of the car . The car hit a telephone pole that was installed to hold up 4 mailboxes . The engine carriage of the car that is bolted to the frame separated from the frame past the bolts causing the steering connection to come apart , the car is totaled . Thank you gm/ buick engineers .

Driving my 1995 buick lesabre I drove down and up a slight road variation and then heard a noise I turned right to get to my office upon making the turn I lost all steering I got the car off the road and looked the whole undercarriage cradle was sitting near the ground / I had the car towed .. Upon further inspection the bolts of the cradle( under engine supports were broken. Thank god I wasn't driving on a highway surely myself or someone would have been killed or injured. This car model has many other cases of similar defect I saw on line. This car should be banned from the roads.

Consumer stated that the bolts holding the engine cradle were corroded. As a result, the cradle fell down and disengaged the steering linkages. Vehicle could not steer properly. Consumer took the vehicle to the dealer, and the manufacturer was also contacted. Consumer was told that there was no recall for this malfunction, and there was nothing they could do.

Dome light is so dim that it is unuseable. ...head restraints are too low. Won't extend to proper height for protection ....power door lock (driver side) stopped working. Key won't work either. Have to enter from passenger side....passenger side power door lock also stopped working about a month after the driver side went out....gas gaauge is deceptive. Very inaccurate. Changes when moving and when stoipped. ....storage/glove box between front seats locked itself and wouldn't open. Had to break it open to retrieve medicine needed.
