Have there been Buick Verano recalls?

I’m shopping for a compact car, and the Verano is on my list. Before I commit to it, I want to know whether it’s a reliable car. Have there been any Buick Verano recalls that I should know about?

It’s always good to educate yourself before buying a vehicle!
Buick
has manufactured the
Verano
since 2012, and the car has been recalled a total of seven times.
To check if the car you’re interested in buying was affected,
use a VIN lookup to check for recalls
. You’ll also need your car’s model year.
Here’s a quick rundown of the recalls:
  • 2016: Improperly installed fuel line assembly, which increases the risk of fire (189 cars affected)
  • Defective electronic park lever, which can cause the car to roll away (8,000 cars affected)
  • 2014: Exposed electrical engine block wires can increase the risk of shock (3,000 cars affected)
    • Defective driver’s front airbag that doesn’t deploy (32,000 cars affected)
    • Transmission shifter failure and inaccurate shift indicator (355 cars affected)
  • 2013 Defective driver’s front airbag recalled again (4,000 cars affected)
  • 2012 Defective driver’s front airbag that doesn’t deploy as expected (3,000 cars affected)
As you can see, one of the main problems with the Buick Verano is the driver’s front airbag that doesn’t deploy during a car accident. If you find that your specific Buick was subject to a recall, reach out to General Motors’ customer service at 1-800-521-7300.
