2014 Buick Regal Owner Complaints

Complaints filed for the 2014 Buick Regal cluster most heavily around the engine and visibility systems. On the engine side, owners report issues tied to the camshaft oil control valve, which prompted a manufacturer special coverage notice during this period. For visibility, the most consistent pattern involves the driver-side HID headlight assembly accumulating condensation inside the lens, owners describe the moisture as persistent and heavy, never fully clearing, and note it reduces the effectiveness of the headlight beam. A smaller number of owners report the instrument cluster intermittently going dark, leaving the speedometer unreadable without any warning lights or messages to signal the problem. The powertrain draws a modest number of complaints as well, though in smaller volume than the engine and visibility categories.

What can fail

The shift cable adjuster may become damaged during manufacturing and disengage, causing the transmission to stay in a different gear than shown on the dashboard. If this happens while driving, the transmission may not actually be in Park even after the driver moves the selector to Park and removes the key.

What the fix does

Dealers will inspect the shift cable adjuster and install a revised adjuster and clip if needed.
