The contact stated that when pressing on the gas pedal it hesitated. Also, rear side window will not go up or down. The window on the passenger's side will not go all the way up and it will not seal. Also, the headlights came on and stayed on. The dealership reprogrammed the light and it came back on. The manifold intake blew out, costing the contact $150 to replace the intake gaskets. The brakes were noisy all the time. When making a left turn the flap will rub the tire, and it caused the tire to blow out.

Vehicle would experience a rollback after releasing brake pedal on a incline. Dealer notified, and informed consumer that nothing was wrong with vehicle. Feel free to provide any further details on this matter.

Brakes are spongy; partially due to a racing engine, it takes more pressure to apply the brakes for what would be considered a routine stop. The engine has 'automatic cruise control' which distorts normal driving sensors. I drove a similar Buick for a day and it didn't require me to brake frequently to avoid exceeding our condo area's speed limit.
