Consumer Description

The vehicle battery has an open recall due to risk of the battery spontaneously combusting based on several recent fires with this vehicle model. I own two of these vehicles as our only car and GM has not given any remedy and have been very difficult to work with. I am simply asking for a timeline for a fix and they have now become unresponsive to my open case. They refuse to buy back or fix my vehicle and because there is a second open recall for the same problem, they now have no timeline and are in no urgent rush to resolve the issue. I am forced to use these vehicles with this major safety risk constantly hanging over my head and no fix in site.
