2007 BUICK RENDEZVOUS Seat Belts Problems

I OWN A 2007 BUICK RENDEZVOUS. I WAS HAVING SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE AIRBAGS LIGHT KEPT COMING ON. THE BATTERY LIGHT KEPT COMING ON AND REPLACING THE TIRES EVERY MONTH. THE CAR WOULD SHAKE HORRIBLE AND WE HAD THE CAR ALIGNED. ON JULY THE 17 2010 MY SON HAD AN ACCIDENT AND SUFFERED A HEAD INJURY AND CUTS TO THE FACE. THE TROOPER SAID HE DID NOT HAVE ON A SEATBELT, BECAUSE HE WAS PARTIALLY EJECTED. YET THE NURSE REPORTED THAT HE HAD SEATBELT MARKS FROM ACROSS HIS SHOULDER TO HIS CHEST WHICH INDICATED HE HAD ON HIS SEATBELT. I BELIEVE THE SEATBELT CAME UNLOCK AND THAT HOW HE GOT THROWN OUT. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I HAD GMC TO CHECK IT AND THEY SAID THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS AND THIS IS NOT TRUE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BUICK RENDEZVOUS. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE CONTACT REAR ENDED THE PRECEDING VEHICLE. THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT DID NOT LOCK AND THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER INJURED HER CHEST AND LEFT KNEE. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPAIRED THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THEY STATED THAT THE SEAT BELTS WERE IN WORKING ORDER. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CRASH WAS NOT SEVERE ENOUGH FOR THE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY. THE DEALER STATED THAT IF THE BRAKE PEDAL IS NOT DEPRESSED, THE SEAT BELT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO LOCK. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT SINCE THE DEALER STATED THAT THE SEAT BELT WAS NOT DEFECTIVE, NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
