BUICK REGAL 2005 car safety problem was reported on Dec 06, 2007.BUICK REGAL 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with AIR BAGS . I SLID IN A SNOW STORM, HITTING A TRUCK AND CRASHED IN THE FRONT OF MY 2005 BUICK, LACROSSE. I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY DUE TO THE WEATHER BUT GAINED SPEED AS I CAME DOWN THE HILL. THE FRONT OF MY CAR WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED. NONE OF MY AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE FIRST EMERGENCY MAN ON THE SCENE SAID SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE AIR BAGS THAT THEY HAD NOT GONE OFF WITH THE TYPE OF CRASH AND CUT THE POWER CABLES SO THEY COULD NOT GO OFF AFTER THE CRASH. THE POLICE OFFICER TOLD ME THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG THAT THE BAGS DID NOT GO OFF WITH TYPE OF CRASH I HAD AND I SHOULD HAVE THE BAGS INVESTIGATED. LUCKILY, I DID NOT BREAK ANY BONES BUT HAD MANY SERIOUS CONTUSIONS, CUTS, BRUISES, SCRAPES, WHIP LASH, CRACKED BREAST BONE, ETC. MY CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER I PURCHASED IT FROM. I WAS TOLD THAT: "OH, THE CAR WASN'T HIT HARD ENOUGH," (REMEMBER THE FRONT IS SMASHED) "IT DIDN'T HIT THE BUMPER LOW ENOUGH;" "THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME THAT THEY DON'T GO OFF;" "HMMM, THAT'S INTERESTING." I TOLD THEM THAT I FELT THAT THEY WERE USING FALSE ADVERTISING WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH ALL THE SAFETY INFORMATION OF THE AIR BAGS IF THIS "HAPPENED ALL THE TIME." NO RESPONSE FROM THEM. THAT HAPPENED DECEMBER 6, 2007. TODAY IS DECEMBER 29TH AND I STILL DO NOT HAVE A REPORT FOR MY INSURANCE FROM THE DEALERSHIP ALTHOUGH WHEN THEY FIRST SAW THE CAR THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD BE TOTALED BECAUSE THE BLOCK WAS LEAKING FLUID. MY CAR RENTAL WILL RUN OUT THURSDAY. I CAN NOT PURCHASE A NEW CAR UNTIL I GET THINGS SETTLED WITH MY INSURANCE. NEW CAR INCENTIVES, WHICH I THOUGHT I WOULD BE ABLE TO USE TO HELP ME OUT, WILL RUN OUT JANUARY 2ND AND I WILL HAVE MISSED THAT DUE TO THE DEALERSHIP NOT GETTING A REPORT IN TO THE INSURANCE. *TR.Vehicle was involved in a crash. 1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 19030 miles.

Check your back springs. Was getting an oil change and while up in the air discovered both rear springs were broken. Cost to replace, $1000.00. Having trouble with gase gauge and driver's side heated seat. Wanting to know how to fix that a how do i fix fual guage problem of my buick allure 1992 buick regal stall andhesitat when applying gas in between changing gears Have a 2000 Buick Century Custom with only 48000 miles, after start up, car would not move in any gear, but I was able to move it by racing engine, rear brakes can be heard dragging, no warning lights on dash. Car has been driven past week during On my 2010 Buick Lacrosse - the tire pressure monitoring readout is reading opposite for the front and back tires. As well, it appears that the left and right side tires are reversed in their readout. Just wonder if anyone else has had this proble my century when in driving surges and hesitates real bad. on freeway other drivers are honking at me. i think it may not be shifting properly Does the 2001 Buick LeSabre have frontal airbags including on passenger side? Same erratic problem with our 2011 Buick Regal Turbo. My 89 buick riviera has trouble cold starting but the engine will turn on and will start on first crank everytime after. Its the first start and in the a.m. it takes longer. Is it a fuel problem or electrical? A few minutes after parking 2011 Buick Regal Turbo in garage there is a strong gas smell. Never notice this with any other car. What's going on? where is the on and off switch for the dome light on a 1996 buick le sabre
