I was in minor accident this past December. The airbag ruptured and cut up my face. I was extremely confused as to how this could happen and after doing a little research, I found out that the vehicle has an open recall for their air bags. I was extremely shook by this information because we were never notified for such a life threatening recall! I contacted gm over 3 weeks ago. The first person I spoke with expressed that she needed to escalate the issue to the right place and that someone would contact me. A week went by and I did not hear anything so I called, I was told that it was sent to the wrong place but they were going to make sure the matter would be sent to the correct department and that they would reach out to me within a few business days. I have not heard from another person at gm since.
I've contacted my local GMC dealer over a year ago around the exact time I received the letter about the airbags and the problem still hasn't been fixed because I was told that they don't have the parts.

There has been a recall in effect since 5/10/23 - NHTSA Recall No. 23V3344; Manufacturer Recall No. N232404980, and there still is no remedy. I have spoken to our local dealership several times, called the GMC Manufacturer today, 8/19/24, and was told there is "no remedy yet; they are working on it. With this enormous safety recall, it is hazardous for drivers to utilize their vehicles without remedy. What can you do to get this pushed through? How many lawsuits will it take for GMC to "remedy" this issue?
