1 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 01/28/2025

My driver side air bag notification keeps coming on. On and off, while I'm driving. My electrical system is odd. I can not charge any devices and my screen will turn off while I'm driving. I'm giving today's date, but this is an ongoing problem for at least a year.

2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2021

Airbag system failure and warning constantly on the vehicle. Gm knows of the issue but will not offer a recall, instead only an expired special coverage adjustment. The part involved is the passenger present sensor (pps)module. That reference number is : n15202352 release date November 2016. Airbags on Buick Veranos will not deploy with this well known issue. Gms own words. Force a recall, my family could die in this car.

3 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/28/2021

2013 Buick Verano engine ceased after excessive oil consumption (which was not indicated by the oil light). Multiple lawsuits have been filed for cars with the same engine, but my specific car has not been included - and gm shut down my car-specific lawsuits due to "design" flaws that they don't take credit for. No warning signs, and my car stopped in the middle of the road, putting my safety at risk. Oil change notification did not work, and oil light did not come on at all. In addition, a "service passenger airbag" light comes on whenever anyone sits in the passenger seat (I have seen recalls regarding this as well, but are not specific to my car). Very disappointed.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 06/30/2021

Check airbag warning light comes on, when someone is in passenger seat. Air bag light is off. When the passenger seat is empty the air bag light is on and the fasten seatbelt light flashes and chimes. I feel this is a safety issue and should be addressed.

5 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 09/06/2020

1) warning icon to check air bag keeps coming on while the car is in motion 2) cannot lock front passenger seatbelt.

6 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 07/08/2019

My passenger air bag module is faulty, when an individual is in the car, the module doesn't sense the passenger. So there is no airbag and I was told that it's possible in an accident that the airbag would not go off. I paid $600 to get a diagnostic, from marvin k and brown dealership. They reported back to me that the module was at fault. My vehicle is out of warranty. The service airbag notification has been continuously popping up on and off.

7 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 07/28/2018

Intermittent warning on information dashboard to service airbag. Dealership would not service warning unless it was active, but due to intermittency it was impossible to bring in an active alarm. Alarm comes in at different times and does not seem to be related to any specific set of conditions. Alarm simply states to service airbag. The alarm has come in numerous times. The date entered below is the most recent occurrence of the alarm, but has been happening since the vehicle was purchased. I think that this is related to a recall regarding the airbag connection on the Buick Veranos, but our specific car was not included in the recall.

8 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 01/21/2013

My service air keeps coming up on my dash board goes on and off - brought it to the dealer and said it needs to be on to fix it - so nothing was done- now my radio/ backup camera doesnt come on and the dealer is telling me I have a short some where and the cost can be over 300. 00 just to look at it - I have 121. 000 miles now but it started from the first year I own the 2013.
