Buick Tops 2009

Vehicle Dependability Study

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Further demonstrating Buick's ongoing commitment to quality, J.D. Power

and Associates announced that Buick tied for the highest ranking in

vehicle dependability for three-year old models. The Buick LaCrosse was

also ranked first in the midsize car segment, beating the Toyota Camry,

while the Buick Lucerne came in second in the large car segment.

For the seventh straight year, Buick has ranked in the top ten brands in the J.D. Power and Associates dependability

study, which tracks vehicle issues over a three-year ownership period and this year evaluates more than 200 problem

areas. Buick moved from sixth place to take over the top spot in this year's study.

"Quality and craftsmanship have always been one of the defining

characteristics of the Buick brand," said Susan Docherty, GM North

America vice president for Buick, Pontiac and GMC. "The added value

of that dependability, combined with premium materials and refined,

responsive performance, is something our customers have come to

expect from every Buick, and it's the driving force behind the continuing

transformation of the brand."

In addition to the latest J.D. Power and Associates honor, Buicks have been recognized with numerous "recommended"

and "best buy" designations by leading consumer magazines and websites for all three current models: Enclave, Lucerne,

and LaCrosse. Building on that tradition, an all-new 2010 Buick LaCrosse luxury sedan will arrive at Brennan Buick this

summer.
