- Notes
- Possibility that steering shaft may have been improperly installed.this could cause a binding condition which, even though not noticable to the owner ,might subject the shaft to abnormal stresses under certain conditions.should these stresses be severe enough or extend over a sufficient period of time, the steering shaft could break with resultant loss of steering.(replace all shafts with improved design.)

Has your Buick been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Buick dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
