Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | There was an explosion and seat belts tightened up,the deployer for air bags went off, luckily the air bags didn't go off or i would have been in an accident. I complained to gm because there was a call back in 2010 of faulty sensors getting corroded because they are located in a damp area. Gm stated that they were no longer responsible because it was over five years old and over 100,000 miles. But my concern is how dangerous this is when you are just driving down the street and they go off causing a accident. I want gm to pay for repairs so that i can have seat belts again but they claim no responsibility and want me to pay $1200. 00 to $1500. 00 to have seat belts and air bags again. |
