Consumer Description

I HAVE REPEATEDLY HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE AIRBAG. IT HAS BEEN REPAIRED 4 TIMES AND CONTINUES TO HAVE FRAYED WIRING WHICH DISABLES THE AIRBAG. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD ON THIS SUV AND HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR ISSUES MORE THAN ONCE. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER- D'ELLA GMC THAT IF THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, IT WONT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. ANOTHER RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED SINCE THERE ARE NUMEROUS POSTINGS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THE PROBLEM
