We received a "important safety recall" notification letter from GMC in June 2023, informing us that there is a safety issue with the driver's side airbag. The recall reference number is N232404980. This recall calls out a potential hazard for metal fragments to pass through the airbag, which may result in injury or death. As of today, June 13, 2024, it has been over a year since we have received this notification, and there is still no resolution. I have called GMC directly, and was advised to "keep checking until a repair solution is available". Given that the cause of the recall can result in injury or death, a timeline of a year (or longer) to repair this issue is completely unacceptable. Someone needs to hold GMC accountable, and pressure them to make the repair for this recall available immediately. It is unacceptable that drivers of the impacted vehicles are expected to drive with a potentially dangerous (or fatal) recall, with no timeline of resolution. I expect the NHTSA to hold GMC accountable, and demand an immediate resolution to all vehicles impacted by recall #N232404980. WITH THE RISK OF DEATH, OUR ACADIA IS NOT ROAD SAFE, OFF THE ROAD UNTIL FIXED. OUR GM DEALER WILL NOT TAKE IT IN A TRADE FOR A NEW CAR AND THE DEALER WILL NOT GIVE US A LOANER UNTIL THE CAR IS SAFE.

I'm reporting on the timeliness of known recall #N232404980. It has been about a year since I've received the initial recall notice. I've contacted the dealer twice to see to check the status of the recall and they have stated that the parts are not yet available and they don't know when the parts will become available. I contacted the dealer approx. 6-7 months after receiving the initial recall notice and then again about 5 months later (that was today). The current status of the recall is: "Recall INCOMPLETE. Remedy not yet available" I'm not sure what is considered 'timely' with a recall of this nature but after a year it might be prudent for the manufacturer to issue an update stating the time frame when the parts should start to come available. While looking for this information, I attempted to find the information on the manufacturer's website but the page timed out and I was not able to find out any more information about this recall from the manufacturer or other sources. I found the following statement from the NHTSA while seeking information from the NHTSA website about this recall: "If the manufacturer has failed or is unable to remedy this safety recall for your vehicle in a timely manner, please contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at: 1-888-327-4236 or TTY: 1-800-424-9153 or file an online complaint with NHTSA. " This is the reason I am filing this online complaint. I would like the dealer to provide an update on when the parts will be available for this recall. It's a little uncomfortable knowing that we're driving around with an instrument (airbag/airbag inflator) that is supposed to save lives but it may actually cause death instead, if activated.
