Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT SIMULTANEOUSLY WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT. I PROCEEDED TO THE AUTO PARTS STORE, BOUGHT NEW BULBS AND CHANGED THEM OUT BUT THEY STILL DID NOT COME ON. ALL OTHER LIGHTS ARE WORKING INCLUDING THE HIGH BEAMS. I SEE THERE ARE RECALLS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM LISTED ONLINE FOR 2007 TB'S BUT WHEN I CHECKED WITH GM/BUICK I WAS INFORMED THAT MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED IN THE RECALL DUE TO IT NOT BEING ON THE PRODUCTION LINE AT A CERTAIN PLANT. YET WITH FURTHER RESEARCH THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER TB OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE AS THE RECALLED VIN'S WHICH SHOULD SHOW THIS IS A PARTS ISSUE. I WAS REFERRED TO THE DEALERSHIP BY GM/BUICK A DIAGNOSTIC OF WHICH I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WAS ON A DIFFERENT PRODUCTION LINE FOR A PART THAT CLEARLY APPEARS TO BE DEFECTIVE! *TR
