2016 Buick Cascada Owner Complaints

The dominant pattern in 2016 Cascada complaints centers on the convertible top's rear window delaminating from the fabric. Multiple owners report the window pulling away from the top along its edges, with several noting the separation progresses to the point where the window risks detaching entirely while driving. Owners also report water intrusion inside the cabin as a result. The second cluster involves visibility, specifically a rear side window rolling down on its own when the vehicle is started, which several owners describe. A single complaint mentions the seatbelt presenter motor failing on the driver's side, leaving the belt non-functional and the part on extended backorder as of mid-2024.
