We have contacted the chevrolet dealer which was Knippelmier Chevrolet of Blanchard Oklahoma about the air bag recall and they keep telling us the part to repair the recall is unavailable. This started in July of 2023... At the end of July 2023 the service airbag light was coming on and off and blinking. We have tried to call other dealerships but we get the same answer. We have also stopped driving the car as much as possible. But this is how my wife gets to and from work. This recall has gone long enough without repair for something this serious... Please let us know how to move forward... Thank you..

It’s going on three months and this has not been repair. Notice states failure to correct can cause death. This needs to be repaired now! How can this just be ignored when public safety is first and foremost? Does some one need to die before this recall is being taken care of?

The complaint is GM has yet to provide parts for a recall issued in May 2023. It is August 2024. Anyone that drives our 2017 Traverse will/may put their life in real danger if there is an accident where the driver side air bag sends shrapnel out. There doesn't seem to be any urgency on GM's part to provide remedy. GM's recall statement says to REPLACE THE AIRBAG. So far, we have had zero incidents that would cause the airbag to inflate.

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 2017 Chevrolet Traverse verdict →
