There was a recall on the airbag sensor of my vehicle in 2000. I was not aware of @ that time because I had not purchased it from the local dealership yet. On Feb.16,2015 I called the 1800.458.8006 & was told that I would have to pay to have the part diagnosed & fixed if needed. The rep. & I went back & forth as to who should pay for this etc.,.I called again on 2-19-2015 spoke with another rep. Still got the same answer.basically I was told that the recall was closed out in 2001. When I asked both reps.that I spoke with if that meant there was a expiration date, I was told no. There were other questions that I asked in reference to the matter that does not add up between each rep. & the local Cadillac technician that the first rep. Connected me with.

I was the driver and only person in an automobile accident on February 16, 1999 between my 1998 Cadillac Deville concours and a 1977 Dodge camper top van. The side air bags did not deploy to prevent my head and left shoulder from impacting the left window and door frame. The Dodge van impacted my left tire quarter panel, driver door panel, and left passenger door panel to the extent that the side mirror was knocked off the door, the driver window damaged, and the driver door indented enough to prevent the window from going down.
