AC heating - heater core went out- AC still not working computer control- buick reprogrammed computer chip- my complaint was erratic idling. It fixed problem. Paint peeling this year struts and springs on suspension are not lasting long tires- probably my fault for not rotating transmission- I replaced it with salvaged one at 170,000- heard a lot of complaints about this 4t60e transmission. Brakes- front ones last 1,000 miles. I replace all hardware.
