I have been notified that my car is recalled. According to your website, long-term heat and humidity makes the airbag more likely to explode. GM as yet is refusing to offer alternative transportation - as recommended by your policies except for brand new cars under 50,000 miles. Yet, by your research, it is older cars that are more at risk. I need transportation for my family and all other manufacturers, along with your agency, are stating do not drive these vehicles, and we are not getting any reasonable response from GM. I appreciate your help in dealing with this issue.

The drivers airbag being recalled is terrifying. I am currently 9 months pregnant and waiting for the recalled part to be declared is the last thing I need to think about right now. The fact that it could deploy at any moment and spew metal parts is unacceptable and should be declared by now. I am not comfortable driving this by myself and soon I’ll have a new born with me. GM is very disappointing and I wouldn’t be surprised if lawsuits were filed. It’s been almost a month since the recall was announced.
