None of the 4 recalls were fixed on this 2011 buick regal cxl 2.4l car when I purchased this car at billion auto in iowa city, iowa. The stabilitrak is bad and was never brought up in the process of purchasing the car and I have had to change my brakes, rotors, and calipers in the rear both sides 3 times in the last 2 years. I'm not happy.

I was driving down the city road and my car just shut off and lost all power to everything. I almost got hit. I then turned my car back on and the service stability trac light came on and the check engine light was flashing. I could nearly get it to go at all and my car was shaking and sputtering. It was the scariest thing I have ever dealt with. I had it put in the shop on 10/26/2018 and now it just happened to me again and its 03/26/2020.

In the last year I have had to replace brake pads, calipers and rotors 3 times in 1 year in my 2011 buick regal cxl 2.4l. Now I'm getting ready to do it for a 4th time. I was sold car that had a hole in the middle of my exhaust that I didn't know was there until winter came and had to run the heat. The stabilitrak system came on out of the blue and shut my car off going down the highway. I have had nothing but problems with this car. I'm just fed up and over it. Its costing me way too much money for only only the car for a little over a year now.

Brake pedal stay down and does not release causing heating and reduce acceleration. It is a safety issue during fast moving and can't predict the car movement. Brake and accelerator pedal assembly not design to work in a wide range of temperatures. It is serious danger in the highway driving.

After the car sitting in the sun, driving in slow traffic the car is running rough, the gas millage dropped, the brake making noise when you stop. When accelerate there is grinding noise. I pulled to the side and turn off the car for five minutes, I start the car and it run as normal. This was happening before for 2 month. Take it to the dealer 3 times, they advise there is nothing wrong. Last time they clean the bearings and it did not help. Finally they advise to replace the modular for the brake and the accelerator and it required remove the dash board and lot of labor time. They are not sure 100% it will work as it is not shown on the scan
