Window regulator, window regulator, window regulator, and I suspect very soon... window regulator.
The window history on this model is a disgrace.
A/C is very loud and controls are a nuisance. Not tactile at all. Give me temp sliders, not digits. How does one know that he wants it 2 degrees cooler or 12 degrees? Doesn't remember certain settings such as airflow direction. Takes 4 steps to blow cold air at my face. What's the point of "Auto" anyway?
Also, absolutely worst console/cup holder design imagineable. There are still coins from the previous owner rattling around in the abyss below the cup holder and I'll never get them out. Put some change in the cup holders and flip it closed if you want to play the magic disappearing coin trick. The cup holders themselves are two different sizes (!) and neither one holds a standard 12-ounce can. I kid you not.
Otherwise, a decent ride and dependable, exc the windows, of course.
I love my 99 buick. My windows work just fine because I don't abuse my ride in any way and I never use the windows when there is ice on the car. People need to know and learn more about preventive maintaince.
Your complaint about the digital climate control is silly. The readout of the actual temperature is much more accurate than trying to figure out how warm/cold you want it on a slide or dial. I have the exact set-up on my Park Avenue and find it very nice to use although I have had to have the unit repaired twice due to the LED's dimming. It is relatively easy to remove yourself and if you look hard enough you can get it repaired for a fraction of what the dealer would want.
I have to agree with the cup holder comments and the window controls. This car runs nice, but have spent a fortune in getting things fixed such as that computerized display showing where the air flow is going and what the temp is. My cup holder is broke and I can't seem to find a replacement.
