2005 Buick Rainier Air bags Problems

“Driving on freeway, engaged in normal breaking and wheels locked up and brakes no longer worked. I did not have the ability to brake or steer the SUV. I ultimately hit the center divider nearly head on, mostly middle to passenger side front of car. The air bags did not deploy. Had GM mechanic look at the brakes after the accident to attempt to determine what went wrong with brakes. They stated that the brake module needed to be replaced and that it can cause the computers to not communicate correctly. ' the bad brake module also meant ABS brakes would not work.”

“One sunday morning. Turned car off and heard a humming sound coming from under the hood on the driver side. Friend at church thought it sounded like the ABS module running. Removed the fuse, cutting off ABS module. Was advised by friend to replace fuse when we went to leave church but to take out when we got home or the battery might go dead. He said get it to a dealership asap. I took the Rainier to john newsome superstore in hartsville, south carolina. I spoke to shop foreman and he agreed it was the ABS module. Cost to replace was $1200 and being unemployed and my wife only one working. …”

“On february 18, 2005 approximately 6:25 am was traveling west on quail meadow drive approximately 65 feet from stop sign a bus made a turn into my lane coming from intersecting street.

“2005 Buick Rainier was in a head on collision with a chrysler town & country van in coming traffic. My wife driving the Rainier hit her head on the steering wheel and bent it. She receive a large laceration requiring about 30 stitches, clavicle strain, broken collar bone and multiple bruises. She was wearing the seat belt. Collision was strong enough to lift the rear of the car off the ground and turn it facing the same direction as the van she hit. The airbags did not deploy!”

“My 16 year old son was making a left hand turn out of a school onto a road with no curve, no hole, no accident but the 4 side air bags deployed for no reason. He was OK and pulled over for safety and got a ride home. We had it towed home and contacted gmac buick and they had it towed to a dealership and had a diagnostic test ran and found no reason for them to deploy but they said the car had been altered because we had put subs and a radio in it through a lisc. Professional but that makes them not liable for anything that would happen. …”
