The air bag light and sound indicator randomly and repeatedly alerts 'service air bag' whether the car is in motion or stopped or has an adult passenger or does not have a passenger at all. Have taken the vehicle to the Buick dealership on three occasions and they cannot find the problem or a recall. Issue has not been resolved.

Head lights are not bright enough and pose a very significant danger. Dealer says that it is standard.I have complained on 2 warranty service visits including today.

The 1st time I drove this car at the visibility range of low beam headlights was horrible. What a difference from my 2007 Buick lucerne! I avoided night driving because of it. Then in March of this year I saw a report online and on national news about the safety of 30 new cars and their headlight rating by the insurance institue go highway safety. My car, a 2016 Buick Verano was listed in the top 3 worst cars tested. The news report suggested driving with high beams which is illegal. Last week car was serviced for 1st time with only 3800 miles. I brought my concerns about lights to attention of service manager and he seemed offended or put off by my concerns. I told him I wanted documentation of my concerns because when accidents start happening because of these poor lights I wanted to be part of a class action lawsuit against GM if they are found at fault. He told me they were able to raise the line of sight about 6 inches. That night I tested the light. No noticeable changes. I guess I will have to drive with my high beams on and risk a ticket. Great car otherwise but very disappointed in headlights.

As soon as I bought this new car I was driving it at night with my dim head lights on and I could not see very far ahead of me unless I put my bright lights on, so this needs to be fixed or an accident can occur very easily !!!!
