Description of the problem | my 2005 crew cab 4x4 chevy silverado air bag light has come on at 75000 miles. From my short one hour online research there are numerous gm suvs and trucks from 2003 - 2011 with this same issue. Most gm certified repair faculties are not able to correct this ***major safety issue*** without significant cost to their auto owners (average cost $400-$3000). Common malfunctioning part - impact sensor 15103522 (average cost of part $100; average analysis cost $200; average labor cost $87 a hour). I did call gm customer service department with no resolve. Case number 71-999598205. I should not have to pay additional cost for a common manufacture safety issue that will result in a cause of death or serious injury. Please use our tax dollars wisely in having gm repair this issue at no cost to the owners. (who we, including you, are the taxpayers that bailed out gm... Why??? Thought that is what chapter 13 bankruptcy is for?) sincerely |
