What owners wrote
Dt*: the contact stated the headlights flickered when the vehicle was driven 0-60 MPH. When the vehicle was taken to the sales/service dealer, the problem could not be recreated. The voltage regulator was replaced, but the problem continued. The lights failed to remain bright enough to see well at night. The computer programming was reflashed. The vehicle also had an ongoing issue with the starter, sliding door opening by itself when the vehicle was parked or while idling in park.
2005 buick terraza while doors are locked and you are driving down the road. The sliding doors decide to open all on their own. You have to stop the van and shut the doors. With the door buttons are turned off they still open just not as often.
