Dealer Jeff Wyler Chevrolet replaced car cabin battery & failed to vent battery gas hose to the vehicle exterior. Hose is laying in well of battery compartment & filling the vehicle with hydrogen gas. General Motors has been informed & car is not safe to drive. Dealer installed a date altered dead cell battery (fully documented) creating a toxic & dangerous situation with no immediate assistance to resolve or reimburse. My grandbabys car seat is located above this battery compartment & we can’t use our car. Is my car now combustible or explosive?

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT COME ON FOR NO REASON WHILE THERE IS A PASSENGER SEATED. WE REPLACE THE SEATBELT AND SEAT BELT SENSOR. THE NEXT CODE SAYS TO REPLACE THE SEAT SENSOR ITSELF. THAT'S A $1000 REPAIR. AND THAT DOES NOT ENSURE THAT THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY. THE SEAT BELT REPLACEMENT WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THE ISSUE. BASED ON THE CODES. WILL THE AIRBAG DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT? WE DO NOT KNOW. THIS OCCURS BOTH WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND/OR MOVING.

THE PPS MODULE KEEPS BREAKING EVERY 1.5 YEARS. THIS IS THE PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THAT GIVES INDICATION TO THE VEHICLE AS TO WHETHER THERE IS A PASSENGER OVER 100 POUNDS, AND TELLS THE VEHICLE WHETHER TO DEPLOY AIRBAGS. SINCE THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE, IT HAS BROKEN 3 MORE TIMES. IT WAS REPLACE TWICE UNDER WARRANTY, AND NOW IT HAS BROKEN AGAIN OUT OF WARRANTY AND RITCHEY CADILLAC TELLS ME THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. IT IS OVER $1000 TO FIX...EVERY YEAR AND HALF?? THE 'SERVICE AIR BAG' MESSAGE COMES ON, THE AIRBAG ICON COMES ON. IT BREAKS SO OFTEN THAT I DON'T TRUST IT AT ALL! CLEARLY THIS IS A PASSENGER SAFETY ISSUE, THAT IS NOT BEING PROPERLY ADDRESSED. THEY KEEP REPLACING THE ISSUE WITH A JUNK SOLUTION.

THREE WEEKS AGO I TOOK MY 2008 ENCLAVE TO O'NEAL BUICK GMC TO HAVE THE AIR BAG RECALL COMPLETED AS I HAD THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED IN MY DASH ALONG WITH THE SERVICE AIRBAG WARNING SIGN. I ALSO NOTICED WHEN I DROPPED MY VEHICLE OFF THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WASN'T WORKING REGARDLESS IF ANYONE WAS SITTING THERE OUR NOT EVEN MY HUSBAND WHO'S 210 POUINDS THE LIGHT STAYED OFF. AFTER LOOKING AT THE VEHICLE THE TECHNICIAN CAME TO ME AND ADVISED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG ISSUE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE RECALL AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO BRING IT BACK AND LEAVE IT BUT THAT THEY WERE FIXING THE RECALL WHICH HAD TO DO WITH THEM TOUCHING WIRES UNDER MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT. UPON LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP I EXPECTED THE PASSENGER SEAT TO BE THE SAME AS THEY TOLD ME I WOULD NEED TO BRING IT BACK. HOWEVER THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT AND SERVICE AIRBAG SIGN SHOULD HAVE GONE AWAY AND THEY BOTH WERE STILL PRESENT. I QUESTIONED IT AND THE TECH SAID AGAIN IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE RECALL. UPON DRIVING HOME I NOTICED THAT I NOW HAD ANOTHER ISSUE A CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM UNDER MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT WHICH WAS NSOT PRESENT BEFORE THEY DID THE WORK. I DROPPED MY VEHICLE OFF TO THEM AGAIN ON 7/28/14 FOR THE FOLLOW-UP VISIT AND ADVISED THE DEALER THAT BASED ON MY PAPER WORK FROM GM THE WARNIGN LIGHTS I HAVE ARE A RESULT OF THE RECALL. I ALSO ALERTED THEM TO THE CLICKING NOISE AND THEY SAID WE WILL LOOK INTO IT. TO MY SURPRISE WHEN I PICKED MY VEHICLE UP ON 7/29/14 ALL LIGHTS WERE OFF AND EVEN THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT WAS WORKING AND OF COURSE NO CHARGE TO ME. HOWEVER, AS OF TODAY 7/30/14 I STILL HAVE THE CLICKING NOISE AND IT'S WORST. I HEAR IT ALL OVER MY FRONT END AND NOW EVEN WHEN I TURN MY STEERING WHEEL TO THE RIGHT. I THINK SOMETHING WENT WRONG ELECTRICALLY WHEN THEY INITIALLY TRIED TO DO THE RECALL. BUT IT MAY NOT BE THEM SINCE SOMEONE ELSE IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

SAFETY PROBLEM WITH THE POWER LIFTGATE ON 2008 BUICK ENCLAVE. WHEN CLOSING, IT DOES NOT REVERSE AT MY SHOULDER HEIGHT. A FEW DAYS AGO, IT PUSHED ME DOWN TO ABOUT TO HALFWAY POINT BEFORE IT STOPPED (OUCH!!!) LATER TRIED THIS A FEW TIMES... IN THE FIRST 6-12" OF CLOSING, THE GATE DOES NOT REVERSE, EVEN WITH VERY FIRM HAND PRESSURE. FURTHER TESTS SHOWED THAT IT FAILS TO REVERSE AT EVEN MORE THAT THE 12" MARK (I DIDN'T MEASURE). AT ABOUT MIDWAY TO CLOSED, IT REVERSES WITH JUST A LIGHT TOUCH. ACCORDING TO OWNERS MANUAL: * "IF THE LIFTGATE ENCOUNTERS AN OBSTACLE DURING A POWER OPEN OR CLOSE CYCLE, A WARNING CHIME WILL SOUND AND THE LIFTGATE WILL AUTOMATICALLY REVERSE DIRECTION TO THE FULL CLOSED OR OPEN POSITION." *TR

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
