What owners wrote

“My vehicle has a safety recall and the manufacturer has not remedied a part to fix it yet.”

Filed Apr 30, 2024

“NHTSA Recall Number23V334 Recall StatusRecall Incomplete, remedy not yet available It will be one year next month and still no remedy. I want to trade this car and dealerships have significantly reduced the value citing the unresolved recall restricting their resale.”

Filed Apr 19, 2024

“Received safety recall last year 2021 and made arrangements with John Holt Auto Sales in Chickasha, OK. They took all the information and said we would be notified when the air bag replacement had arrived. It's been over a year now and this problem still exists. Not sure how much longer I should wait while driving this hazardous vehicle on the highway.”

Filed Dec 27, 2023

“There was no incident, yet, but GM is for whatever reason dragging their feet for a solution. It has been almost 7 months since I received the recall notice and nothing has been rectified. I fear every time I get into my car to go anywhere!”

Should you keep driving it?

This page can't tell you that. 0 of 133 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.

File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation.
