2015 BUICK ENCLAVE Complaints

The contact owns a 2015 Buick Enclave. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V44000 (Air Bags); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact called another local dealer, Hennessy Buick GMC (7261 Jonesboro Rd., Morrow, GA 30260); and was informed that parts were not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

I took my car in for routine maintenance service and requested them to investigate a rattle noise when the car is started and when it idles. The vehicle was around 96K mile range. The repair center said it was the fuel injection system and it was normal. Fast forward to now, I have 111k miles, same rattle noise, and took my car back to shop for routine maintenance service and investigation into the rattle noise. It's the timing chain. Timing chain was stretched to the point where it couldn't be tightened and had to have over $4000 worth of repairs done to replace the chain and other damaged components. I pulled my owners manual and even searched online for the OEM recommended inspections for major components of my car and nothing about having timing chain inspected at any specific mileage point, or any other major components that could fail are listed for major components that could be inspected for wear and tear at said mileage milestones. The fact that prior year models had recalls due to failed timing chains, you'd expect to see following year cars, of the same body style, to have a heightened recommended inspection schedule to make sure the solution to the prior recall worked.

GM Recall N232404980: I was sent a letter in June 2023 about this recall, which stated parts were not currently available to replace the airbag. The letter states that GM will contact me when the part becomes available. On May 8, 2024 I called my local GM dealer to ask about the status of this recall. The dealer said they would have to special order the part and would notify me when it was available. The dealer never notified me and on May 28, 2024 I called the dealer, they checked, and the part had come into the dealership. Today I had the new airbag installed at the dealership. Had I not followed up on this recall I may never have been notifed that the replacement was available. This is totally unaccepable and GM should be held responsible.

The recall was discovered on March 25 by my car insurance company. We stopped driving the vehicle since it is unsafe to drive it until recall is remidied with a new part. I have called GM 3 times as well as 3 different dealerships. GM and one dealership mentioned the vehicle is actually safe to drive its just if you got in accident that it would be a concern! Noone can say when these parts will be in and its already been 3 weeks. The dealerships refuse to offer a loaner and when asked about reimburse for a rental they said to call GM. Gm refused to reimburse for a rental since my car is paid for and out of their warranty. GM nor the dealerships are actually doing anything to fix the car or offer transportation that is safe until it can be fixed.
