SOLSTICE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR. THIS IS THE MOST FRUSTRATING PROCESS EVER. FINALLY GM HAS ADMITTED THE PROBLEM THAT THE PASSENGER SENSOR CAN GO BAD. I PAID OVER $800 TO HAVE IT FIXED TWO YEARS AGO. SOLD THE CAR AFTER IT WAS FIXED AND I CANNOT GET REIMBURSED UNTIL THEY COME UP WITH A RESOLUTION? I REALLY AM NOT CONCERNED WITH A RESOLUTION ANY LONGER I JUST WANT TO BE REIMBURSED BUT HERE I SIT WITH GM PLAYING WITH MY $800. NOT A BIG SUM OF MONEY TO THEM BUT A IT CERTAINLY IS TO ME.

MY 2006 PONTIAC SOLSTICE HAS A RECALL NOTICE (GM SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 17036). A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER (SUNSET IN SARASOTA FL) ATTEMPTING TO GET THIS PROBLEM REPAIRED. SERVICE SAID IT WAS REPAIRABLE AND QUOTED $150.00. I CHOOSE TO WAIT AND DRIVE ANOTHER CAR. SINCE THEN I RECEIVED THE A RECALL NOTICE. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE PERTAINING TO THE RECALL. THIS PROBLEM IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG STAYS IN THE "OFF" POSITION AND WILL NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. SEEMS STRANGE THAT THE DEALER HAS THE PARTS IF I WANTED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO AND DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS FOR THIS RECALL. I WANT TO START USING MY CAR, BUT DO NOT BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE HELP.
