1995 Buick Regal Engine problems

While traveling home from work on a very busy street (highway) the car died. Since then I never know when it's going to do it again. Some days it dies 5 or 6 times. I'm a senior reliant on social security income and any expense is "unwelcome", however, I have spent nearly $1,000 to no avail. Several times after a repair the car died a block from the repair shop. This usually happens in traffic. I have trained myself to flip the shift gear into neutral & turn the key on(car usually restarts - in 2 instances it did...

I own a 1995 buick regal. The engine is hydrolocked I've been told. The intake was leaking coolant for a while at the plastic manifold. I've done research on the internet and see this is a common problem. I've read somewhere that gm takes responsibility for it and issued a fix by adding a pill additive to the coolant or something. I wasn't aware of this and my engine is totally shot. I'm a poor senior citizen and can't afford to fix a car. I have no way to get around. Please force gm to enact a recall and reimburse all damage caused by their faulty engineering. Please. *Cn

Dt: the contact states that the brakes are not working . Has replaced brakes and still are not working correctly. Also, power steering is out, and the head gasket blew out. Also, transmission has been replaced.*Ak

I own a 1995 buick regal and for all the trouble I have had with it, I still like it. First, the air conditioning will quit working when it is real hot outside and we are going up a hill. Where we live that is everywhere. Second, the paint started peeling when the car was only 3 years old. I contacted the dealer where we purchased the vehicle and was told that there was nothing that he could do about it without charging us for a paint job. ($3500). I then contacted another dealer in another town a couple years...

While driving at any speed and no warning the vehicle stalled and was difficult to restart. *Nlm

Vehicle began to lose coolant, the dealer replaced the upper plentium and thermostat, consumer is requesting reimbursement for repairs. *Slc

There was some leakage of antifreeze into engine caused by a bad intake manifold. This happened while consumer was driving on highway at about 65mph. Contacted dealer, and dealer assumed head gasket was the problem, and charged consumer $4,700 to get a new engine. After new engine was installed, dealer put old intake manifold back on, and new engine also blew out. *Ak the vehicle needs new engine again. A new intake manifold is needed too because of damage caused by antifreeze. *Yh

I bought a 94 ford explorer 02/02/200 and the car overheated the next day. I wanted out from the whole deal but they said no or else they will ruin my credit, so I had no choice but to get the buick, I was concerened about my credit, and on the next day I'm having all these problems. *Ak

The steering wheel becomes stiff and difficult to turn. Owner has to turn the vehicle off and start it back up again when this occurs. Dealer changed serpentine belt and brake pads. Problem still exists. *Ak
