News - Crash Test Results:

Frontal Driver: * * * *

Frontal Passenger: * * *

Side Driver: * * *

Side Rear Passenger: * * *

Crash Test Note: Results based on a 35 MPH frontal crash and 38.5 MPH side crash. Results are reported in a range of one to five stars, with five stars indicating the best crash protection for vehicles within the same weight class. This test used driver and passenger belts and airbags.

Rollover Note: The Rollover Resistance Rating is an estimate of your risk of rolling over if you have a single vehicle crash. It does not predict the likelihood of that crash. The Rollover Resistance Rating utilizes a "fishhook" maneuver which is a series of abrupt turns at varying speeds to see how "top-heavy" a vehicle is. The more "top-heavy" the vehicle, the more likely it is to roll over. The lowest rated vehicles (1-star) are at least four times more likely to roll over than the highest rated vehicles (5-stars).

Recall:

NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 99V170

Potential Number of Units Affected: 168,035

Summary: Passenger vehicles. Some of these vehicles exhibit a condition in which the antilock brake system (ABS) motor shorts to its case and grounds through a flexible brake fluid pipe. This short can cause extreme heating of the flexible brake pipe which can melt a nearby flexible plastic fuel hose, resulting in a fuel leak and possible under-hood fire.

Remedy: Dealers will install a ground cable from the electronic brake control module (EBCM) to the engine compartment body rail. Owner notification was expected to begin during July 1999. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Buick at 1-800-521-7300.
