Airbag recall is taking a really long time I have 5 children that have to ride in my 2016 traverse with an active airbag recall that states the inflator could shoot shrapnel into the cabin where my kids are at. I'd like for my kids to be safe while riding in my vehicle. How much longer is general motors going to take to get this issue fixed. It's been almost 6 months since the recall was issued. I've very upset about this.

In these vehicles, the front-driver airbag inflator may contain a supplier manufacturing defect that may result in inflator rupture during deployment. Safety Risk An inflator rupture may cause metal fragments to pass through the airbag and into the vehicle interior, which may result in injury or death to vehicle occupants. I reached out to GM to see what options I had/if it's safe for me to drive the car and the rep I spoke with told me the car is NOT safe to drive and if the airbag deploys it could cause death. I asked when would a fix be available and she said there isn't a fix and we don't know when one will be available. I called my local dealerships to see if they had any ideas as to what I should do and they said they don't have any suggestions it could be 6 months or more until they have parts in to fix your car. My wife and I both have jobs in separate directions and need two cars so we can get to work. I asked if they could provide us with a rental car since they deemed my car unsafe and said I could die driving and the agent I spoke with said GM wont provide us a car but she will escalate my case and i will here from someone in 4 days with an update. well here is 4 days and i get a call saying no one has picked up my case and I probably wont here anything until next week. I am very concerned for my safety and anyone who owns a car with this issue.

Campaign ID is 23V334. I received recall letter from GM but parts are not available and letter does not state when they will be available. Vehicle has not been driven since read of recall in media in May. Recall stated that rupture of airbag could result in death which with that risk effectively prevents vehicle from being driven. Unacceptable.

I read about the airbag recall for our 2016 Chevy Traverse and confirmed or vehicle is affected.. I contacted GM and was advised not to drive the vehicle but that no remedy was in place at this time. I called 3 local dealers, none of whom would provide a loaner vehicle until a fix is available. This is our only vehicle and we are gambling with our life if we drive it.
