The painting on my 2015 Buick Encore started peeling about 2 years ago and has continued to worsen, and I am concerned about the longevity and overall appearance of my vehicle. As a loyal customer, I expect the paint job to last for a reasonable amount of time, and I believe this issue should be addressed by the manufacturer. I would like to request that Buick fixes this issue free of charge. I understand that my vehicle is no longer under warranty. This is particularly concerning as the peeling paint is affecting the resale value of my car, and I would like to maintain its value as much as possible. I understand that paint issues can occur, and I appreciate that this is not necessarily a reflection on the overall quality of the vehicle. However, I am requesting that Buick take responsibility for this issue and repair the paint free of charge. I believe that the paint peeling issue is covered under the vehicle's warranty, and I hope that I am hopeful that Buick will make every effort to keep this cost to a minimum and to ensure that I am not left out of pocket for a problem that is beyond my control.

After driving the Encore for 30 minutes then making stops at different places a few minutes apart, when the car is started there is a smell of gas inside the car. Does not happen when starting the Encore for the first time of the day. I was inside the store from 5 minutes to 30 minutes, has happened several days now.

We had just left the grocery store, my wife was driving, and less than a mile into our trip home something failed behind the instrument panel of the car that caused hot liquid (coolant?) to pour onto my lower leg and foot in the passenger side front foot well. The vehicle had only been running for a couple of minutes and the coolant wasn't at its full operating temperature, so the burn was no worse than a coffee spill and didn't cause significant injury. If the vehicle had fully warmed up and the coolant was 200+ degrees, I would have been burned very badly. I just want GM to know that this happened so that maybe they can put something in place to prevent this before someone gets severely burned.

My car was in motion going approximately 45-50 mph when it hit a stationary vehicle on the highway. I was able to hit my brakes but still hit the car in almost full force, head on. Both my car and the car I hit are totaled, and I was taken by ambulance to the hosputal after, but my airbags did not go off.
