| Seat Belt problems |
I purchased this vehicle several years ago used and everything was working fine. Several months later, whenever a "passenger" sits in the front passenger seat, the check airbag and seat belt system message appears in the dashboard. After the seat becomes unoccupied, the message remains on. . . Sometimes for a couple of days, sometimes for a week, and sometimes for a month or two. Then it may stop showing the message until a person sits there again. This also happened when the vehicle was not running and the key was in my pocket. I went and applied pressure to the passenger seat and when I started the vehicle with an empty passenger seat, the message appeared again. I took my vehicle to the dealer and they were going to charge me an arm and a leg for the repair and I was thinking this should be a covered repair. What I am saying is the message appears that something is wrong and when someone sits in the seat.
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.
There is a big leak coming from the roof or side of door way. . Everytime I wash car or its raining I noticed leaking from side from front driver seat all the way back to passenger side.
I,the driver, wife, mother-in-law were stopped for traffic when we were rear-ended. My vehicle then struck the vehicle ahead of me, that vehicle then struck the vehicle ahead of it. The vehicle that struck me was then rear- ended. My car was totaled. The occupants in my car were transported to emergency room. . I had a broken back, broke ribs, damaged right lung.
The contact owns a 2008 Buick Enclave cxl (na). Both the driver and passenger seat belts became frail on the side. The retainer that held the seat belt cut the seat belt.

2008 Buick Enclave cxl awd the seatbelt casement on both front seats in this SUV are being damaged (cut into) by the belt moving out and back over the housing, causing the belt to occasionally catch and not retract into the b-pillar. This problem has been reported to the local dealer, as well as gm corporate offices, and neither will replace the worn out and catching parts, claiming that this is not going to be covered by warranty at this time. We have been told that this will be addressed in the future and in the meantime dealers are being told not to repair this problem. Safety concerns lie in the fact that the seatbelt fails to retract occasionally and does not sit tight against the passenger and drivers chest.
