Takata airbag recall on other Enclave years

Report counts are for each model year on its own, so a newer car has had less time to collect them.

What this problem usually is

This is the narrower sheet inside airbag problems for complaints about inflator recalls, Takata's above all. Many owners here aren't describing a failure they've seen. They're describing a recall notice, a dealer who doesn't have the part, and the question of whether the car is safe to drive in the meantime.

What got replaced

Few of these reports name the part that was replaced.

What owners wrote

“This recall has been an issue since the middle of last year. I have called Buick several times and I am still being told that, "there is no remedy". It is unsafe for me to drive my children around in a vehicle with an airbag issue. This is serious and I would think a recall that can cause serious injury or death would have been taken care of already.”

Filed Feb 6, 2024

“There is a recall in place and the manufacturer had not remedied this. The recall has been in place since May. If the airbag ruptures, me and my kids could die do to the metal fragments. They are not even offering rental cars or reimbursement. This is unacceptable.”

Filed Sep 14, 2023

“I don’t know if this is the correct form but - My vehicle has been recalled for a serious safety risk and Buick will not provide a replacement vehicle or pay for a rental while my car is not drivable. They are telling me there is nothing they will do while I am waiting indefinitely for the fix. This is a serious safety and financial burden to me and my family. This is our only vehicle.”

Filed Jul 12, 2023

“A recall has been made on May 10, 2023 for the driver's airbag deployment and the possibly of death being caused by metal pieces flying into the person driving. Recall has been made, yet parts are not available. I am very concerned of injury or death in the event of an accident.”

Should you keep driving it?

This page can't tell you that. 0 of 95 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.

File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
