There are 2 owner-reported air bags & restraints complaints for the 2022 Buick Encorein NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Seatbelts on my year old Encore with only 15k are frayed and unraveling, I am having the vehicle in for other unrelated repairs on Friday and will be certain to inform the dealership at that time but feel that this is extremely dangerous and totally unacceptable in a year old vehicle and I feel like I or my passengers could be injured or thrown from the vehicle in the event of an accident, no warning lamps or messages prior to failure.
None of my air bags went off in my car and my car was totalled. My insurance company has possession of the car now.
