2009 PONTIAC VIBE Complaints

TAKATA RECALL- MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER INFORMED ME THAT MY VEHICLE HAS AN AIR BAG WHICH HAS BEEN RECALLED. HE SAID THAT HE COULD NOT REPLACE IT BECAUSE HE HAD NO PARTS. HE DID NOT SAY I SHOULD DIS CONTINUE DRIVING IT NOR DID HE OFFER TO PROVIDE A LOANER CAR. HE WOULD NOT GIVE ME A DATE WHEN HE WOULD HAVE THE NECESSARY PART.

TAKATA RECALL MY PONTIAC 2009 VIBE HAS A PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL DUE TO IT CAN DEPLOY AND RUPTURE AT ANYTIME AND POSSIBLY CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. THE RECALL STATUS IS INCOMPLETE AND A REMEDY IS NOT YET AVAILABLE! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND ALSO VERY POOR PLANNING BECAUSE I CAN'T LET ANY PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT. THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY AND YOU ARE ACTING AS IF IT WAS THE 19TH CENTURY. SPEEDIER ACTION MUST BE ACTED UPON. THANK YOU
