2010 BUICK ENCLAVE Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2010 Buick Enclave has 5 recalls, the most serious involving the driver's airbag inflator, which can explode during deployment and send metal fragments into the cabin, causing serious injury or death. The remaining recalls cluster around occupant restraint and airbag systems. The side curtain airbags may not be properly attached, meaning they can fail to protect occupants in a crash. The seat-mounted side impact airbags and seatbelt pretensioners can also fail to fire in a crash due to increased resistance in the wiring harnesses, leaving front occupants without full crash protection. On the seatbelt side, a steel cable in the belt assembly can fatigue and separate, preventing the belt from properly restraining an occupant. There is also a second-row issue where the side trim shield can block the seatbelt buckle from rotating into position after the seatback is folded and returned upright, leaving that belt unable to restrain a rear passenger in a crash.
