I'm concerned that if I'm in an accident and the driver airbag inflates metal fragments will pass through the airbag and into the interior of my vehicle and possibly kill me or my passengers. I've called a GMC dealer and they can't do anything because the parts aren't available at this time to repair. I called GMC customer assistance and they said there's nothing they can do at this time. I called State Farm, my insurance agency, and they said there's nothing they can do because I haven't been in an accident. I'm not satisfied with this outcome. I need my car to commute to work. I feel someone is responsible to do something for example cover the cost of a rental car.

Recall on Air bag system in 2014 GMC Acadia. My safety and my children safety is at risk every time we ride in vehicle. I have a warning light illuminating the airbag needs repair. When i purchased this vehicle it wasn't any issue to the system. I'm paying insurance on a vehicle that hasn't found a remedy for the issue and I cant afford to go without transportation. There isn't a time limit on when an incident can happen but as of now this recall is an issue and if it goes without remedy I will need new/other affordable recall free transportation.

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the full 2014 GMC Acadia Limited verdict →
