AIR BAGS
MY CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW IN DECEMBER 2006. IN JULY 2016, I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTIFICATION FROM GM REGARDING THE TAKATA AIRBAG, RECALL 49151. I HAVE BEEN CHECKING IN QUARTERLY WITH MY LOCAL DEALER, NOW CAVENDER CHEVROLET, BOERNE, TX AND RECEIVE THE SAME ANSWER THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART IS NOT AVAILABLE. MOST RECENTLY, THE DEALER REPRESENTATIVE INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE MAY NOT EVER BE FIXED. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS 96,494 MILES AND I AM STILL IN FEAR FOR MY WIFE AND PASSENGERS THAT HAS TO SIT ON THAT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. WHAT ARE MY LIABILITIES IF AN INJURY OR DEATH OCCURS DUE TO THIS PROBLEM? I CAN'T EVEN SELL OR TRADE THE VEHICLE DUE TO THIS RECALL NOTICE AND HAVE POSTPONED MANY LONG TRIPS DUE TO THIS ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WORKS WELL OTHERWISE WITH NO OTHER ISSUES. SOME HELP IS DEFINITELY NEEDED TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION!! I CAN FORWARD A COPY OF GM'S RECALL NOTIFICATION IF NEEDED. THANKS YOU IN ADVANCE.

SERVICE BRAKES
RECALLED ISSUED BY DEALER IN SEPTEMBER 2019. I RECEIVED THE NOTICE ON 10/21/2019. RECALL # N192268490. I HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED ON 9/13/2019 BY A 3RD PARTY. I CALLED THE DEALER ABOUT REIMBURSEMENT SINCE I REPAIRED THE VEHICLE BEFORE I WAS AWARE OF THE RECALL. I WAS INFORMED THAT SINCE I HAD THE REPAIR WORK DONE BY A 3RD PARTY AND NOT A CERTIFIED CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP I WOULD NOT BE REIMBURSED. IS THERE ANY OTHER RECOURSE FOR REIMBURSEMENT OR PARTIAL REIMBURSEMENT FOR MY OUT OF POCKET EXPENSE?

AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I PURCHASED MY 2010 IN 2011 AND THE DASH CRACKED IN 2012. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALER TWICE AND CHEVY WILL STILL NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR ITS POOR QUALITY AND MANUFACTURING. A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD AND HAD NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT SHOULD NOT HAVE COSMETIC DAMAGE. THIS IS DEFINITELY A MANUFACTURERS PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE REPLACED BY THE COMPANY. MY TRUCK WAS WORTH 48,000 AT THE TIME AND I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A REPAIR CAUSED BY POOR QUALITY OF THEIR MATERIALS. NOW MY VEHICLE IS 9 YEARS OLD AND THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED OUT OF NOWHERE WHEN MY SON WAS DRIVING.... THERE WAS NO WRECK OR IMPACT WITH ANYTHING AND THEY DEPLOYED. THE QUALITY USED BY CHEVY IS TERRIBLE AND I DO NOT PLAN ON PURCHASING ANYTHING ELSE FROM A COMPANY THAT SELLS OVER PRICED VEHICLES WITH CHEAP AND FAULTY PARTS THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE INTERIOR LIGHTS FLICKER WHENEVER THE VEHICLE'S BRAKES OR LEFT BLINDER IS USED. THE FLICKERING CAUSES DISTRACTION FOR THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS. FLICKERING HURTS EYES, IN ADDITION CAUSING HEADACHES AND POTENTIAL FOR SEIZURES. FLICKERING OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND WHEN THE BREAKS ARE USED AND/OR THE LEFT BLINKER IS TURNED ON. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DISRUPTIVE WITH INNER CITY DRIVING.

SERVICE BRAKES
MY BRAKES FAILED IN HEAVY HIGHWAY TRAFFIC WHEN TRYING TO MERGE OVER. THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED THEN COASTING AND BRAKES WOULD NOT WORK. GOT TOWED TO DEALER FOR GM RECALL N192268490. RECALL WAS PERFORMED. BRAKES FAILED 45 MILES LATER WHEN SLOWLY BACKING INTO DRIVEWAY. THE FAULTY PROGRAM THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED IS KNOWN TO DAMAGE THE VACUUM PUMP YET CHEVROLET HAS ONLY RECALLED THE PROGRAM AND NOT THE VACUUM PUMP. I FILED A CASE WITH CHEVROLET MONDAY 10/14/19 AND WAS TOLD I WOULD RECEIVE A CALL IN 1 TO 2 BUSINESS DAYS. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A CALL BACK. I SPOKE WITH SOMEONE TODAY WHO SAID THE SENIOR SERVICE ADVISOR IS SCHEDULED TO CALL ME AT 9PM FRIDAY 9/18/19. MY GRANDSON AND I WAITED OVER 3 HOURS FOR OUR ONSTAR TOW AND HE IS ABSOLUTELY DEVASTATED BY THE FEAR HE EXPERIENCED. *TR
