| Description of the problem | Takata recall" -- gm recall #2049151; nhtsa #16v381. I live in southern oregon where it is very humid and can also get very hot, both of these conditions are listed by the manufacturer to increase the rate at which the airbags can degrade. This recall is over two years old, repair or replacement should exist by now. I have contacted the dealership in my area multiple times, only to be told each time, that there is no remedy for this problem. I would consider trading my vehicle in and getting something safer, but due to this unresolved recall, the value of my vehicle has been diminished. This is my second complaint to the nhtsa. |
