TAKATA RECALL - SAFETY RECALL TAKING TOO LONG IN MARCH 2017, I RECEIVED A GM RECALL NOTICE FOR MY PONTIAC VIBE. I CALLED GM AND LOGGED A TICKET (CASE#8-3053081027). EACH TIME I CALL THEY STATE THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE OR THE ENGINEERING FIX IS NOT READY. THIS TIME I CALLED THEY WANT TO KNOW THE MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE. I ASKED WHY AND DID NOT RECEIVE A VALID ANSWER FROM GM CUSTOMER SUPPORT. MY TOYOTA COROLLA HAD A TAKATA AIRBAG REPLACED TWO YEARS AGO. WHY IS IT TAKING GM SO LONG TO REPAIR A SAFETY PROBLEM WHEN OTHER MANUFACTURES HAVE COMPLETED THEY SAFETY REPAIRS ? CUSTOMER SATISFACTION SHOULD BE A TOP PRIORITY FOR GM. I DON'T BELIEVE "PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE" OR AN AMERICAN ENGINEER CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO REPLACE AN AIR BAG. I AM A FATHER OF AN AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS FAMILY AND NEED TO HAVE THIS CAR REPAIRED.

IN MARCH WE RECEIVED A RECALL TELLING US OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG ISSUE AND POTENTIAL FATAL INJURY THAT COULD RESULT. I CALLED PONTIAC TODAY AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THIS PROBLEM WILL BE RESOLVED. IN THE MEANTIME WE ARE UNABLE TO ALLOW PASSENGERS, OR EACH EITHER, IN THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT. THIS IS VERY DIFFICULT AS MY WIFE USES THIS CAR FOR BUSINESS. THE LAST RECALL WE GOT ON THE 2007 VIBE TOOK OVER 18 MONTHS TO RESOLVE. (WE SOLD THAT CAR AND BOUGHT THIS ONE).0 IT'S LIKE THE CAR ISN'T MADE ANYMORE SO THERE'S NO RUSH. PLEASE HELP.

TAKATA RECALL - STILL WAITING FOR DEALER TO RECEIVE PARTS IN ORDER TO PERFORM REPAIR. CAN NOT SELL CAR WITH ACTIVE RECALL NOT REPAIRED.

TAKATA RECALL. I AM CONTACTING YOU TODAY TO MAKE A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE FACT THAT I RECEIVED THE AIR BAG RECALL NOTICE IN MARCH 2017 AND STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO HAVE THE REPAIR MADE BECAUSE THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. I HAVE CONTACTED PONTIAC TWICE NOW TO NO AVAIL.

TAKATA RECALL- I WAS INFORMED OF THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL MARCH 2017 AND I CAN`T GET IT FIXED. I`M FEARFUL OF WHAT COULD HAPPEN. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND ASKED IF THEY WOULD DISABLE THE AIRBAG AND I WAS TOLD THEY COULDN`T BECAUSE IT IS ILLEGAL YET I SAW NEWS STORIES WHERE TOYOTA SAID THEY ARE GOING TO DISABLE AIRBAGS IF REPLACEMENTS AREN`T AVAILABLE. I JUST WANT IT FIXED/DISABLED SO I DON`T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANYONE DYING FROM FLYING DEBRIS. ISN`T THERE A WAY TO ALLOW THE DISABLING OF AIRBAGS IN JUST THE AFFECTED VEHICLES? I CAN`T HAVE ANYONE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AS IT IS BUT IT WOULD BE NICE IF THE DRIVER/BACKSEAT PASSENGERS DIDN`T HAVE SHARDS OF METAL FLYING AT THEIR FACES IF THE THING GOES OFF. ALSO.....I HAVE SPOKEN TO GM ABOUT THIS AND THEY TOLD ME THEY ARE FIXING AIRBAGS IN STATES WITH HIGH HUMIDITY FIRST BECAUSE IT IS THE HUMIDITY/MOISTURE THAT MESSES WITH THE AIRBAG. THE LAST PERSON I SPOKE TO AT GM TOLD ME THEY HAVE BEEN WORKING ON STATES SUCH AS CA AND AZ FIRST. SERIOUSLY? IF THE PROBLEM IS HUMIDITY THE LAST STATE THAT SHOULD BE DONE IS AZ, AND EVEN CA HAS A LOWER AVERAGE HUMIDITY THAN MY STATE. THEIR AVERAGE HUMIDITY IS LOWER IN AZ THAN LITERALLY EVERY OTHER STATE IN THIS COUNTRY. I LIVE IN NJ, AVERAGE HUMIDITY IS 83% AND AZ IS 53%. HOW ARE CARS IN AZ GETTING FIXED BEFORE MINE?

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE THE RECALL NOTICE FROM GM (MARCH 2017). THEN I RECEIVED THE TAKATA BANKRUPTCY NOTICE (NOVEMBER 2017). I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SHOW IN THE COMPUTER THE RECALL AND THE STATUS IS PENDING AS THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS. THERE HAVE BEEN RELATED DEATHS WITH THIS AND I AM SUPPOSED TO KEEP DRIVING IT. THERE IS NO SOLUTION, AND NO MONEY TO RETURN AS OF YET TO FIX THIS. ISN'T THAT A CRIMINAL OFFENCE???!!! IT WOULD BE IF ANYONE ELSE OPERATED LIKE THIS.

TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN MARCH 2017 CONCERNING THE FAULTY TAKATA AIR BAGS. TO DATE, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A NOTICE OF THE AVAILABILITY OF REPAIRS. IT IS 8 MONTHS AND COUNTING THAT A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS AIR BAG HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING SINCE MARCH 2017 FOR AIRBAG TO BE FIXED. STILL NO PARTS OR RENTAL CAR AVAILABLE AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD NOT TO HAVE A FRONT SEAT PASSENGER. OTHER BRANDS OFFER RENTAL CARS, WHY NOT PONTIAC?
