Description of the problem | I have several cracks throughout my dash and am concerned that i will have additional dangerous sharp plastic fragments in addition to metal fragments from the open air bag recall. This has been a known problem gm has failed to address. In addition, i also have a problem with engine temps heating up to where the ac goes into fail safe that gm says they cannot fix even at my expense. After about 10-15 minutes running in idle to launch my boat i came back to find my children diaphoretic in their car seats and had to use my skills as a paramedic to cool them down due to the extreme temperature in the vehicle. I cannot even sit in drive for a few minutes picking up the children without this happening. I put a temporary fix on with an aftermarket electric fan after replacing the fan clutch and whole cooling system in the vehicle, plus 3 ac compressors now to buy me a few more minutes. Gm does not care about the safety of their customers. I now only use the vehicle in the winter when the children are with me for their safety. |
