ON MY 2001 CHEVROLET IMPALA, AN AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON. THE GM DEALERSHIP IN NEW RICHMOND WI, REPLACED AN AIRBAG MODULE IN OCTOBER. A FEW WEEKS LATER I NOTICED ONLINE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR MY CAR, THAT BEING THE AIRBAG MODULE THAT WAS CHANGED. SO I BROUGHT IN THE RECALL INFORMATION TO THE GM DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID MY VIN DOESN'T SHOW UP AS BEING PART OF THE RECALL, SO THEY COULDN'T HELP. BUT THEY SAID I COULD CALL UP GM. SO I CALLED THE CHEVROLET CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER AT 1-800-222-1020. THEY ALSO SAID THAT MY CAR WASN'T PART OF THE RECALL. *AK WITH HAVING THE RIGHT YEAR, MAKE, MODEL, AND REPLACING THE EXACT PART THAT WAS RECALLED, I BELIEVE MY CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN APART OF THE RECALL. CAN YOU HELP? JOEL HETZEL
