Air Bags
Filed Oct 26, 2017LA

WE HAVE CONTACTED THE 1-800 NUMBER ON SEVERAL LOCATIONS ONLY TO BE LEFT ON HOLD OR A MESSAGE WAS TAKEN AND WE WERE TOLD THAT SOMEONE WOULD RETURN A CALL WHEN THE PART WAS AVAILABLE. THE CAR SAT AT BOHN GMC LOCATED AT 3801 LAPALCO, MARRERO, LA FOR ALMOST A WHOLE DAY AND NO WORK WAS EVER DONE ON THE VEHICLE TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG. WE WERE NEVER CONTACTED WHEN THE "PART" WAS AVAILABLE. WE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE FOR OUR DAUGHTER TO DRIVE, WHO IS A COLLEGE STUDENT, BEFORE WE KNEW THERE WAS A RECALL. IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT THE DEALERSHIPS ARE UNWILLING TO DO THE REPAIRS.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
