Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2006 buick lucerne cxs v8 drivers seat is offset to the right of the steering wheel. upon personal investigation it was discovered that the oem supplier of the drivers side airbag had a lot of problems passing deployment specifications so as a last resort buick (gm) decided to move the seat instead. this is very uncomfortable to drive and i really wonder how well the airbag will deploy in a side impact crash. i've contacted gm and the dealer and get the runaround and was even told by one of the dealers service men that all cars are designed like that! *nm
