This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Buick dealer.
Had car in for alternator light/low power mode.. Had accelerator pedal sensor replaced, then mechanic noted leaking with differential pinion seal. It's expensive, under warranty, but dealerships in metro Detroit will not provide loaners so I had a private mechanic fix it ... apparently a 4 hour job.
Possibly dangerous if fluid leaks out.. possibly problems with awd? Good luck...

The Kunes GM dealership in Lake Geneva used their best certified mechanic and he screwed up tightening the seal cover, so I had to come back in September to get the stupid mechanic to tighten the seal cover on drive train shaft correctly. Next, I tell him the power steering fluid is making a noise when turning. Probably low fluid. The car runs great except for these minor things.
