Recalling airbags, what’s next?
Why are GM cars getting airbag recalls?
In March of this year, General Motors announced a recall of 1.5 million cars in the United States due to an issue with the airbags. The problem is that the airbags may not deploy in a crash, potentially causing injury to passengers.
What are the next steps for those who have their car recalled?
If your car is recalled, you will need to take it to a GM dealer for an inspection. If there are any issues with the car, your dealer will likely fix them. You may also be eligible for a refund or a trade-in allowance. In some cases, you may be able to keep your car if there are no safety issues.
If you have any questions about your recall, or about your car, please contact your dealer or General Motors customer service.
