I was getting off of work and as I tried to open my car I noticed the remote wasn't work. As I approached my vehicle I smelled something burnt. Figured it was coming from the alley. I noticed my windshield wipers were up. I manually opened the car and it smelled worse of burnt. Noticed that nothing was working inside my vehicle. I call security to come and help me and as we open the hood it smelled just as bad. We noticed that the fuse box had a melted hole in it. Once it opened several fused were burnt. I have read that several people have had the same issue. I wish U let us upload pictures of this incident. What if while driving my car had caught on fire or something worse could have happened to me or my child. Luckily I was out of my vehicle when this problem occurred. This issue has to be looked at. Now I have to tow my car out of my work garage pay for that and then pay for my vehicle to get fix which we should definitely get reimbursed for it because it's obvious that this is a recurring issue that has not been fixed. It can turn out to be a big law suit against Buick. I had the same issue also with the headlights. I would be driving at night and out of no where my lights would just shut off. Had to replace that also...updated 07/21/15 updated 11/9/2015
