While driving my 2007 gmc acadia, my side curtain airbags deployed. the incident almost causing me to have a serious mva. also causing extensive interior damage. *tr

Involved in frontal colision with major damage pushed into the drivers door making it difficult to open. the airbags did not inflate. also issues with the battery that it would go dead every so often. this was look at by my dealer and i was told there was no issue. the battery went totally dead and we were unable to call for road side assistance and had to use my cell phone. other issues todate the remote start works only when it wants to and at times the cruise control and all other steering wheel controls will not work. then start working with out any reason. *tr

Involved in frontal collision with considerable damage, but air bag did not deploy. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 gmc acadia. the contact stated that when someone weighing approximately 105 to 110 pounds sits in the front passenger seat, the air bag light illuminates. the illumination indicates that the air bag is deactivated. the vehicle has been taken to the dealer several times and they stated that nothing was wrong. the current mileage is 14,000 and failure mileage was 6,000. updated 01-29-08. *kb

Passenger side airbag sensor does not always sense when there is a passenger and indicator light shows airbag is off. the vehicle was taken to the dealership where i purchased it and they said there was no diagnostic code and they could not duplicate. *tr

While completing a right turn from a complete stop i rode up on a curb and all curtain air bags deployed. there is no physical damage to car exterior,tires, rims and undercarriage. damage assessment has been confirmed by two gmc dealerships and my insurance company. i have asked gmc to provide information referencing whether or not the sensors and computer performed per design. the only answer i have received is that the yaw sensor is what triggered the deployment, that all bags where deployed and this is not a manufacturer defect but an insurance claim. to my knowledge no analysis has been done to determine speed, angle etc... my wife and two children where in the vehicle when this occurred. we are so confident that the vehicle malfunctioned that unless we are reassured that gm has resolved the issue we will not drive the vehicle any longer. *jb

2007 gmc acadia with several serious safety issues. she states that the vehicle has had these problems: a large puddle of oil under the vehicle, windshield wipers stopped working, battery died and side curtain airbags deployed while driving. *kb the dealer told the consumer the front shaft seal needed to be replaced to correct the leak from the transmission. they also stated there was a drain on the system that caused the battery to fail. the consumer took the vehicle back to the dealer where they upgraded the transmission, which had to be done twice. the power steering made a loud noise, the consumer stated it sounded as if the pump was about seize and then the steering becomes hard. the vehicle rolled backwards while in drive on a slight incline.*jb updated 04/10/08
