MY VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN RECALL 17036 FOR PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR MALFUNCTION. I TRIED TO GET THIS RECALL COMPLETED IN 2017 BUT WAS TOLD BY GM THAT A FIX WAS STILL BEING CREATED AND TO WAIT FOR NOTIFICATION FROM GM WHEN A PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE. I WAITED A YEAR AND NOW HAVE ACTIVELY BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS SAFETY RECALL FIXED SINCE MARCH OF 2018. I HAVE BEEN TO TWO DEALERSHIPS, COURTESY AUTO OF CHICO, CA AND BUD CLARY GM LONGVIEW WASHINGTON. BOTH DEALERSHIPS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIND A PART TO FIX THIS SAFETY RECALL. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS CONTACTED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE MAY OF 2018 AND STILL NO PART HAS BEEN LOCATED TO FIX THIS SAFETY RECALL. THIS VEHICLE WITHOUT THE SAFETY RECALL COMPLETED IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE, CAN'T BE SOLD .

AIRBAG RECALL: A RECALL WAS ISSUED RELATED TO THE AIRBAG SENSORS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE; THIS DEFECT DOES NOT ALLOW THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I HAVE A TWO SEAT VEHICLE; THE AIRBAG SENSOR IS NOT WORKING; THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED OVER A YEAR AGO WITH A STATUS OF "REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE" - THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE; IF AN ACCIDENT WERE TO OCCUR AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DOES NOT DEPLOY, IT COULD BE LIFE THREATENING - THERE SHOULD BE A REMEDY AVAILABLE OR LOANER VEHICLES PROVIDED UNTIL THE REMEDY IS AVAILABLE - WITH A TWO SEAT VEHICLE; THIS DOES NOT LEAVE MANY OPTIONS FOR THE OWNER
