Got. Into a. Accident on 6 /9/2017 I was traveling 35 to37 mls. Per hour a dark blue van tried to go before me coming the opposite way coming towards me she turn in fount of me I hit her on passage side of van it was a major accident no air bag deployed. We were on perkins st of akron ohio. 44304 330 351 9477.
My 'air-bag' light, for the past year, stays on constantly. Reading other messages on line, other owners have the same problem. Why isn't there a recall on this?.
The engine keeps stalling and shutting off in traffic after lurching forward. Defective engine burned part of engine hood, and severed abs brake lines burned off by heat, gm manufacturer defects.
The contact owns a 2002 Buick Lesabre. The contact stated that the driver front air bag erroneously deployed. The vehicle was taken to both an independent mechanic and the dealer but the failure could not be replicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 113,179.
The padded dash peeled up away from the dash frame in fron of steering wheel. It is peeling across from left to right. I am concerened about air bag deploying without warning. G. M. Says this part is discontiuned and you can not find this part anywhere. There should be a recall on this padded dashbrfore some one gets hurt.
The dash cover has separated from the front near the windshield. Noticed everyone on car lots near this year also have the same problem. This is obviously a flaw in the product, please help. I've been told that if it continues across to right side the air bag will deploy.
My 2002 Buick le sabre dashboard is peeling up & out along inside front window, also under radio and air bag, no dealer can fix it or auto repair shop. Afraid air bag is going to open up on passenger side. . . Dash is opening under it.
The padded dash has peeled up and away from dash frame in front of the steering wheel. It is continuing to spread (peel up and away from the frame) across the padded dash from left to right, towards the passenger area. It continues to grow in severity, and I am concerned about the passenger airbag, with respects to it deploying without warning, due to the peeling/warping of the dash around it. I have put a dash mat (cover) over the problem for appearance purposes, but even that doesn't hide the growing magnitude of the problem anymore. I have been told that it will cost me anywhere from $350 - $1,200. 00 to correct this problem from independent repair shops in the area, to the gm Buick dealer. This is a design flaw, & "safety" issue direct from the manufacturer. Other than this ever increasing problem, the car is in immaculate condition, & I would like to keep it due to its mechanical reliability, fuel economy, & comfort. I believe an oem padded dash replacement, should be made a recall on the part of gm as this has not happened due to negligence, age of the vehicle (it began when the car was relatively new), or accident. I respectfully look forward to receiving a response from you.

I bought 2002 Buick Lesabre brand new and after approximately I year the dash began to buckle almost the entire length of the windshield. It is now approx 3 to 4 inches high. I went to car gurus. Com and realized hundreds of people were having the same problem. I did not realize that this problem could impair air bag deployment. I believe this warrants a recall.
The horn required excessive pressure to activate. The dealer stated the problem was due to the air bag placement. Mr scc.
