AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TAKATA RECALL- I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THIS REMEDIED AND WAS TOLD GM DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS? I HAVE ALREADY HAD MY BMW 3 SERIES AND CHRYSLER 200 AIRBAGS FIXED SO WHY IS GM HAVING ISSUES WITH REPLACING THEM? THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ALSO HAS ENORMOUS AMOUNTS OF CORROSION AT ALL THE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS, I SAW THERE HAS BEEN A TECHNICAL BULLETIN POSTED FOR THIS, SO WHAT HAS GM DONE TO FIX THIS ISSUE ALSO? I JUST BOUGHT THE CADILLAC AND THE AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT WAS ON AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS DUE TO THIS RECALL NOT GETTING DONE.

SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE ENGINE MOUNT HAS BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES AND KEEPS BRAKING, I CAN'T AFFORD TO KEEP PAYING TO REPLACE IT EVERY SIX MONTHS, MY MECHANIC SAYS ITS BEEN MISDESIGNED, BECAUSE THE ENGINE IS TOO STRONG, HE ALSO SAID THAT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR ALL OF THE VEHICLES WITH THAT SIZE ENGINE, MY CONCERN IS, WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN IF I DON'T REPLACE IT ANYMORE AND IT COMPLETELY BRAKES? SHOULD THIS HAPPENS WHEN I'M TRYING TO CROSS A ROAD WITH LOTS OF TRAFFIC AND I NEED TO SPEED, I WILL BE STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND BE HIT BY ANOTHER CAR? ALSO, ANOTHER CONCERN IS THAT MY TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO GET DAMAGED, EVER TIME I TAKE OFF, I CAN FEEL HOW HARD IT HITS THE ENGINE DUE TO THE MOVEMENT ALLOWED BY THE BROKEN ENGINE MOUNT.
