Today I received a GM safety recall 14491 notice which stated "until the repair is performed, the front passenger seat should not be occupied". the notice states "parts to repair your vehicle are not currently available" and it does not give any indication as to when the parts will be available and the repair can be performed. My wife and I are in our 70S and we always travel together and not being able to occupy the front passenger seat until the repair is performed at some indeterminate time in the future is not an acceptable solution.

I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with failing to receive needed recall repairs related to at least NHTSA #25V285 and #15V043. I have been receiving notices for over a year advising that repair parts are not available. I find it unacceptable to be left waiting this long while being told not to allow the passenger seat to be occupied. This is totally unrealistic and unfair. Why aren't the manufactures being held accountable for providing a timely repair" I understand the supplier is to blame and so should be working 24/7 to provide the remedy. Isn't this a priority for human safety" thank you for your time and attention.

Recall notice received along with statement "until the repair is performed, the front passenger seat shoud not be used.' How does one get his family to and from destination when recalled auto is not safe to drive with passenger. Auto is used for Transport of our family and grand children. This can not be condoned by our government can it? what is reasonable time (to be deprived of vehicle usage) and having to make other arrangements if possible for repairs which could affect quality of life or loss of same. Awaiting reply

A recall was done on the door module controls but after the repair, the airbag warning light lit up. The headlights blow one at a time with in 2 months. One tale light and the third tale light bar on the window also failed. I don't know if it is installation issues or the module caused an electrical overload. No one is willing to admit error.

I was informed by mail from GM about 6 months ago that the vehicle was subject to a recall for passenger air bag (GM safety recall 13112), and that I would be informed when parts were available. Upon following up today with GM to obtain an update (phone number 800 521 7300) I was informed that they have no information for a recall of the vehicle. GM assigned case # 71-1412420838 to my call. At the NHTSA web site I have found the following information: Recall subject: Passenger side front air bag inflater may rupture report receipt date: June 11, 2014 NHTSA campaign number: 14V312000 all products associated with this recall vehicle make model year(s) pontiacvibe2003-2004 I wish to know whether the vehicle is safe or unsafe; whether it is subject to recall or not.

NHTSA recall 14V655; GM recall 14735. In addition to media stories, I received notice from GM via fedex in mid-Oct (10/23, I think). The purpose of notice was pure pr, to dupe consumers into thinking GM is on top of the recall. I called my local GM dealer (regal GMC, lakeland, fl) on 10/24. I was advised that GM hadn't even supplied the dealers with a GM recall number yet. The dealer promised to call me when they had more info. That never happened. So I called the dealer today (11/12/14) and was advised that parts are on order but the dealer (1) doesn't know when parts will be received and (2) cannot predict when my car will be repaired. Meanwhile, I have a potentially lethal problem with my vehicle. It's obvious GM doesn't care much. NHTSA must make GM more responsible for its screw-ups and fix recalls in a much more timely fashion. I'm really po'ed about this.
