2004 Buick Rainier Air bags Problems

“Both rear air bags are starting to leak causing back of car to sit low. When the car is started it will air back up but will go back down as soon as the car is parked. The car has not been in any accidents to cause the defect. I have searched the internet to find that this is a common problem found in this make and model. I am wanting to know if this has been classified as a safety recall or a defect through the manufacture.”

“While traveling at a speed of approx 50-55 on a interstate, I was reared ended by a auto, my auto was struck then shoveled into a cement wall block and then bounced into on coming traffic to the other cement wall block on the opposite site while trying to stop, I was wearing a seat belt, the vehicle's air bags didn't go off at all in the vehicle. A head injury occurred, neck and shoulder injuries occurred. The auto was a total loss!”

And yet the airbag did not deploy. …”

The two vehicle hit head on with near perfect even impact, based upon third party visual description of the front end of the vehicles damage. The vehicle decelerated at a max sdm recorded velocity change rate of -14.07 (MPH) and a algorithm enabled to maximum sdm recorded velocity change of 127.5 msec. Driver of the vehicle hit the steering wheel with head knocking the person out. Airbags did not deploy. …”
