1. Dashboard separating from windshield and causing 3" gap causing partial obstruction. Now is separating more at drivers' side near steering wheel, and about 75% pulled away at this time. Critical safety problem because air bags may deploy and injury or death could occur. Cannot fix easily and consider it critical defect and inferior workmanship. Not able to safely drive the car or able to sell it! 2. Electric windows in back passenger and driver side had to be replaced. $$ 3. Light switch control malfunctions and recently stuck in the "on" position. Had to disconnect battery to turn off. This just happened last night and was inconvenienced greatly !! 4. Headliner falling down and was repaired twice. Now is falling down where it was not repaired!

Window motors on all windows in the vehicle have been replaced multiple times. If a crash had occurred I would be unable to open window to escape if unable to open door. Talked to buick and they refuse to acknowledge the problems with the window motors, I have been in contact with other buick lesabre owners (at least 100) and they have had the same issues with the window motors failing and needing replacement multiple times with a few owners stating being unable to exit the vehicle after a crash because they could not open the vehicle windows. Again buick has not offered any help in this matter nor have they even acknowledged there was a problem. *tr

2002 buick lesabre. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle surges forward when brakes are applied. *smd the consumer also stated the vehicle had defective drums, that melted and severed the front brake wiring, exactly at the point when the brake system wires traveled from the engine and entered the brake drums. The consumer also stated the vehicle had poor gas mileage, the three out of the four windows collapsed in the down position, and would not come back up. The consumer believed the engine and the hood were defective, as the paint on the hood melted.

This is regarding recent replacement of both rear window regulators. Research has proven that many complaints have been filed over the years with no recall. I would hope for financial help, $1000 to cover the cost of repairs, as the minimum response; and also, I hope for a recall to help the many others who have suffered great financial costs and safety. I have been directed by my father, [xxx], original and present owner of this 2002 buick, to help him be a responsible consumer/customer. My father of 88 years still believes in american made cars, especially in GM. He has been watching, like many americans, for a "come back" in the auto industry, especially the correction of problems that clearly has a large documentation of complaints as this one. I hope you will be able to honor his faithfulness in perhaps a small financial way, and perhaps even in a greater way through a recall.

I was driving on the highway a few days before december 3, 2011, and I heard a loud "pop" sound from the back seat of my car. On the 3RD, I was driving along and started hearing the sound of an open window in the back seat. I tried to close the back-right window with the power window control on the driver's door, but it didn't move the window (I heard the motor running, though). I then parked the car and got out to try to pull/push the window shut, but it would not stay all the way up. It had started with just an inch or so being open, but eventually it slid down so it was only about halfway up. From what I've read online ( http://www.carcomplaints.com/buick/lesabre/2002/windows_windshield/window_regulator_broke.shtml ), this is a fairly common problem with this model of car, but buick is saying that there's not enough reports of this issue to declare a recall notice for the window regulator. I disagree. From what I've read, repairing a single window with this problem can cost up to $300 plus labor, and usually when one window goes bad, the others are soon to follow. I don't really feel like paying $1200 for windows in a car I only paid $5000 for used... *tr

At approximately 25,000 miles, my 2002 buick lesabre's rear driver's side window regulator went out in the middle of the winter while a child was in the back seat. It just fell down, and barely missed harming the child. Three days later, I replaced the part. Four days after that, the rear passenger side window did the exact same thing. I replaced the part. Two months after that, both the front window regulators went out. Those parts were replaced. Four months later, the front passenger side went out again. Within two weeks, all four window regulators had gone out for a second time. They were all replaced at the same time. Six months later, and now three of the four are out again. (only the driver's window remains working at this point.) I have spent over $1,500 in just over a year, getting parts replaced for the windows and still the problem persists. I have spent $98.50 on different types of tape to try to find one that will hold the windows up, so they do not break while driving. I have had no luck finding one that holds for more than a day or two. This is an extreme danger to everyone in my car, along with others on the road, because I have to use so much tape to hold them up that I cannot see my mirrors properly. I have to travel with small children in my car with child safety seats, but I cannot trust the windows to stay up and am tired of constantly being scared that one will come down and break near the children, but have already spent so much trying to fix it that I cannot possibly sink any more money into 'fixing' something that is now apparent will never be 'fixed'. *tr

I have a 2002 year buick lesabre where the front and rear windows would not raise up or down fully. I had to manually raised each window ny hand to close it if accidentally lowered by a passenger. We got one of our windows replaced for $600. I bought the other part for our rear window for about 60 dollars and had a mechanic placed in much cheaper than the former dealership charged. With one of the child-proof rear windows now locked with a piece of wood holding it up in the door window this makes it very unsafe if this car ever is submerged in water or some other compromising position with the rear passenger needing to escape. *tr

While driving my 2002 buick lesabre, the front passenger window made a crunching noise and then just sank down into the doorframe. So I guess I'll be either replacing the window regulator or having the window permanently closed.

I have removed my dashboard cover or so called dash board pad and have re-glued it 3 times and now it is curling up at the forward end again. The front of the headliner is now rotting at the foam area between the fabric and the molded shape, the same as has been ocurring since the early 1980's. The foam is deteriorating from the heat and the sun, (florida owners are effected more than some), turning to powder so there is nothing that can be done other than replace it with the same garbage from GM or have an upholstery shop like mine. Http://www.markthree.com replace the fabric on the existing ceiling shaping board, after spending hours removing the ceiling headliner from the car and then removing all of the rotted foam and fabric brought to a clean and usable surface. Why are we still dealing with the same sun vs. Glue problems that we have since they stopped doing stretch ceilings in the 70's? As an upholsterer at http://www.eastcoastautotoys.com I do make a good living off of this abomination but as a 2002 buick lesabre owner, I do not appreciate that I have had to remove my dashboard cover also called pad and have reglued and remolded it 3 times. Now it is curling up at the forward ends again as well as by the air bag. The front of the headliner is now falling loose and down at the front windshield area due to rotting foam, {just like like those of the 1980's}. The foam is deteriorating and turning to powder so there is nothing that can be done other than replace it with the same garbage or have an upholstery shop like mine replace the fabric on the existing board. After spending 45 minutes removing the ceiling from the car and then another hour removing all of the rotted foam.....why are we still dealing with the same sun vs. Glue problems that we have since they stopped doing stretch ceilings in the early 70's?

I lowered the windows and when I went to raise the rear-passenger there was a "crack" noise and it would not go back up. The plastic part, at the top of the window regulator, had broken - causing the wire, which runs through the regulator, moving the window up and down, to just coil up inside the door panel. I went to a dealership to have them quote me the cost of repairing and was eventually told the repair would run me ~$700. I was told that the part alone was ~$400. I didn't have them fix it... Because I was expecting a ~$75 repair... Not ~$700! I taped up the window (which I hate being "that car") and decided to get another quote. At the time I was incredibly busy with work and didn't get around to it though. Roughly a month later the exact same thing happened to my front-passenger window. I now have both passenger side windows held up by tape. I cannot believe there is no recall for this. I have tried looking for a place to submit problems with cars to buick directly, but have been told to only go to a dealership and tell them.... And I've already been to a dealership with this problem and no luck. I have taken my door panel off to try and fix myself and was very surprised that the problem was just that the top part of the regulator, which is basically just a track for the wire to run in as the window goes up and down, was cheap plastic. The rest of the regulator is steal, and the part that has all the tension from the wire running over it, is plastic. Ridiculous. *tr

Window regulators are very prone to fail. Three have failed on my car, and one has been replaced twice. This is a very common problem on several GM cars. The window can fall open and will not close which could be dangerous in inclement weather. This is also expensive and a financial hardship on owners and should have been addressed some time ago. *tr

I bought this car in feb 2008. In november 2008, the driver side front window started having issues going back up after being opened. It would go about 1/2 way up and get stuck. I would then have to pull over and force the window closed. This happened multiple times throughout the entire winter. Then more recently(10/8/09), as weather started getting cold again, the same thing started happening. Except this time, the window doesn't go back up at all. This is very frustrating and can be distracting when you're trying to pay attention to the road. My main concern is going through toll booths in mid winter, 20 degree weather and not being able to close my window. This happened last winter and I nearly got into an accident because of it. I was quoted that the window regulator would cost $600 to replace. I don't have that kind of money and therefore can't afford to replace this component. *tr

Rear passenger window dropped down by itself for no reason while driving. It had not been used since the driver side window also dropped down and was repaired 2 years ago. We had not used the rear windows on purpose because it is a known window regulator defect which no one has recalled. However, the window fell by itself anyway. The 3 or 4 inch gap of open space is now taped over, but it is unsecured and could easily break. I am not going to pay the $500 it takes to get it fixed.

I also have experienced window regulator failure, passenger front side went down and that?s where it stayed.

I bought a 2002 buick lesabre limited early in 2007, by summertime the passenger window, and both rear windows fell without being used, I bought a replacement window motor and now they are working ok, the front driver side window has difficulty going up and down, I replaced the window motor and it is still having difficulty, though this time it is due to the window track being dry. This window problem should be recalled, many other lesabre owners experience the same problem. All 4 window motors have been replaced in 2008 and for over a year I was driving a car with no working windows, this may not appear like a problem that would lead to death or injury, but what would happen if somehow there is a fire in the car and you need to pull down your windows, or during the winter your window gets foggy and you need to pull it down to be able to see, while I understand that you can warm up the car before driving, a window can get foggy very quickly when the temperature is below 40 degrees and pulling down a window to be able to see to make a turn safely could be a life saving event. *tr

General motors 2002 buick lesabre window motors. I have had the car 5 years and I have replaced 2 window motors. Two were covered by warranty. Two I was forced to replace and now the last window that has not been replaced has failed. There is an obvious problem in the design. *tr
