Takata recall - I received a recall notice from Pontiac. When I contacted them about the recall I was told they had no idea when parts would be available to fix it and that until the repair is performed, the front passenger seat should not be occupied. This is impossible given the size of my family not to use the front passenger seat. When I asked about a resolution to this situation they said it was not their problem and refused to direct my concern to a supervisor or manager. I requested the email address of the vp of global vehicle safety ([xxx] ) who sent me the letter and they informed me that it was not available. So GM is telling me that I can't safely use the car for what I purchased for. This is unacceptable and I want to know what recourse I have in this situation. Thank you for your assistance with this matter. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Takata recall. I received a recall for my airbag. Neither the dealer or GM can even give me an estimate as to when repair parts will be received. On top of that, the recall states that ""until the repair is performed, the front passenger seat should not be occupied ". I regularly use this vehicle to carpool with four adults. This renders my car as unusable! neither the dealer or GM had even a temporary solution. I am at a loss as what to do next.

I originally sent this complaint in Nov.2013, ODI#10551685. Airbag light is still on and with all the GM recalls wondering why this isn't one of them.one website I checked said something about a cable causing this problem but it only covered 2009-2010 models. Why aren't the 2008 models included since this seems to be the problem with my car.
