I have received four Recall Notices (dated June 2023, 08/21/2023, 09/19/2023, and 10/17/2023) relative to the Drivers Air Bag Inflator May Explode. I have reached out to the dealer to schedule the free recall repair to no avail. Each time they have informed me that parts are unavailable. It now has been several months since they have not contacted me for repair or resolution. Occasionally, the Service Airbag indicator light of the vehicle comes on. Meanwhile, I continue to drive this vehicle at great risk of injury and death. Request help in getting the manufacturer and dealer to expedite in fixing the problem. Thank you.

On a few occasions, while driving, the car will shut completely off. In these incidents, wrecks could have been caused. I almost ran in ditch one time and almost hit a stop sign because the steering wheel wouldn-??t turn since the vehicle was cut off. The latest incident happened on 10-22-2023. On several occasions, while driving, the traction control light will come across the dashboard -??traction control off-??, immediately after the engine light will come and another alert come across the dashboard -??reduced power. As you pull over or begin to stop, the car will shake really bad and another alert will come across the dash board saying -??service stabilitrak.

The recall that is out on my vehicle right now could cause death and it has not been fixed in a timing manner. It-??s been nearly 3 months since the issue has come to my attention and I-??m terrified to drive with my three kids wondering if my airbags deploy, how many of us could die.

My car showed message warning " service side detection system" during winter storm in syracuse NY. This message is on and off. Also, driver side warning light on driver mirror shows inaccurate. It is on when there were no car. Also it is off when there are car on my left side. Sometimes this happens without any warning. My car is big, has blind spot, this feature is very important. I checked the sensor located inside rear bumper behind the tire, which is bad position for the sensor, mud and water can build up easy around sensor. The sensor case is sealed not properly and weather can break the seal easy. My sensor has been filled with water inside. I could hear water when I shaked the sensor

The air conditioner doesn't work. I have taken the vehicle in at least 2-3 times and have been told nothing is wrong. The most recent time I took it in was about 4 months ago. Yesterday it was 90 degrees where I live. After school, I pick up my kids 3yrs & 7yrs. After about 5 minutes in the car my 7 year old is complaining of being hot. I look back and she has sweat dripping down her face. This is a safety issue especially for anyone that has infants. After being told my air conditioner is fine multiple times, I don't expect hot air to be blowing out the vents in the back when my air is on. The front was not working well either, but it was cooler air coming out, not cold. I assumed the back was the same temperature. If I had an infant that couldn't speak, they could die from heat exhaustion. This is similar to leaving your child in the car for a few minutes on a hot day. Someone could die. I have also read multiple complaints about the same issue. Please do not let a death happen before recalling this issue. There is a hissing sound coming from the front almost everyday. The air conditioner works sometimes, but it usually takes awhile to get cold or doesn't work at all (usually on warmer days). My car has 60K miles now. This problem started a few years ago. The car was in motion in the city street during this incident.

Passenger side front window developed a stress crack. The crack begins unders the cover for the rearview mirror and extends upwards about 1/3 of the way down window and terminates at the top edge of the glass. The crack happened while driving and there were no strikes to the side window. Appears to be a faulty piece of glass. I have since observed another Buick Enclave with the passenger side front window cracked in the exact same location with the same crack pattern
