I WAS STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION WAITING FOR THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TO CHANGE. ONE VEHICLE WAS IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS IMPACTED FROM THE REAR BY A THIRD VEHICLE TRAVELING AT A RATE OF SPEED I WOULD ESTIMATE AT SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 20 AND 40 MPH. THE FORCE OF THE IMPACT THREW MY CAR INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. IN ADDITION TO THE SIGNIFICANT REAREND DAMAGE SUSTAINED, THE IMPACT DESTROYED THE FRONT END OF MY SUV, INCLUDING BUMPER, RADIATOR, HOOD AND DAMAGE TO BOTH FRONT QUARTER PANELS. AND YET THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. I'M RECOVERING FROM BACK AND NECK STRAINS AND PAINS FROM THE WHIPLASH EFFECT OF THE ACCIDENT. HOWEVER, I AM SURE THAT I WOULD HAVE EXPERIENCED AND ENDURED LESS TRAMA HAD THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. THE 2004 BUICK RANIER SUV HAS BEEN TOWED FROM THE SCENE. TODAY OR MONDAY, THE INSURANCE ADJUSTOR WILL DETERMINE IF THE VEHICLE IS REPAIRABLE. BELOW, I HAVE REFERENCED ALL COMPONENT CHOICES RELATED TO THE AIRBAG BECUASE IT DID NOT DEPLOY. NO DETERMINATION HAS BEEN MADE TO DETERMINE THE SPECIFIC PART RESPONSIBLE FOR THE NON-DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG.

I NOTICED IN NOVEMBER OF 2016 MY BUICK RAINNER WAS SMELLING LIKE GASOLINE AFTER I GOT OUT AND LEFT IT RUNNING WHILE I WAS DROPPING STUFF AT HOME FROM WORK. WHEN I GOT BACK IN MY VEHICLE I DIDN'T SMELL ANYTHING, BUT COULD SMELL OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. I WENT ABOUT ANOTHER 10 MILES LATER TO MY DESTINATION AND PARK. 20 MINS LATER WENT BACK OUT AND CRANK MY VEHICLE AND COULD SMELL A STRONG GAS ODOR COMING THRU VENTS ON THE INSIDE OF MY SUV. I GOT OUT AND LOOKED UNDER MY HOOD AND DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG UNDER THE HOOD. WHEN I WALKED TOWARD THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE THE GAS SMELL WAS EVEN STRONGER. I CHECKED THE FUEL / GAS TOP TO SEE I LEFT IT OFF BUT IT WASN'T. THEN I LOOKED UNDER MY VEHICLE AND NOTICE FUEL WAS POURING OUT AROUND MY GAS TANK AND NOTICE A BIG WET SPOT ON THE GROUND UNDER THE TANK. WHEN I CUT OFF THE VEHICLE I NOTICE THE GAS COMING FROM AROUND THE TANK HAS STOP. HAD MY VEHICLE TOOKEN TO A LOCAL GM/ BUICK DEALER. THE DID A INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE AND SAID WHAT EVER THE PROBLEM WAS IT WAS AT THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK. SO GAVE THEM PERMISSION TO WORK ON IT AND FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. TWO DAYS LATER THE DEALER CALL ME AND SAID THAT THE GAS LINES GOING INTO THE TOP OF THE TANK WHERE FUEL PUMP GOES INTO THE TANK GAS WAS LEAKING FROM THEM. THEY COULDN'T TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT CAUSES MY LINES TO START LEAKING AT THE TOP OF THE TANK. ( AFTER READING THIS NHTSA REPORT IN 2008 ON THE CAUSE AND GM/ BUICK EXTENDED A WARRANTY FOR 10 YEARS OR 120,000 WARRANTY). I'M TOTALLY UPSET ABOUT THIS BECAUSE NHTSA SHOULD HAVE DONE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM TEN YEARS AGO INSTEAD OF CLOSING THE INVESTIGATION AS LONG AS BUICK MAKES EXTEND WARRANTY FIX. THE DEALER HAD TO ORDER THE PARTS FOR THE VEHICLE AND TOOK TWO DAYS TO ARRIVE. AFTER THE PARTS ARRIVE AND TWO DAYS MORE TO WORK ON IT. I HAD A $1200 BILLS THAT I HAD TO PAY A FEW DAYS BEFORE THE THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY.
