Vehicle recall in May 2023 for 2016 Chevrolet Traverse (GM recall # N232404980 - NHTSA 23V334) for exploding driver airbag inflator causing metal shrapnel to fly into the cabin. Letters from General Motors should have been sent by June 26, 2023. To date I have not received a letter or instructions on how to remedy situation. Multiple local Chevrolet dealerships have been contacted (Stonebriar Chevrolet, Frisco, Texas and Classic Chevrolet, Grapevine, Texas), both dealerships have stated that General Motors has not created a fix for this dangerous issue to date. Public records also indicate a repair has not been created.

There has been a recall for our vehicle, and the manufacturer has failed to remedy this serious safety recall for our 2016 Chevy Traverse in a timely manner. We no longer feel safe driving/riding in our traverse. I would like information on a refund and/or request the manufacturer to please purchase our traverse.

Air bag is at risk of rupture, causing injury or death. Letter was sent to us in June, and it's October with no remedy. We are about to head into winter with an unsafe vehicle. Plus after inquiring about trading it in at the dealership, we were told they could not give us a normal trade in value because it was considered not safe to sell with no remedy in sight. If it's not safe to sell, why are we being told to keep on driving these vehicles?

Airbag recall is taking a really long time I have 5 children that have to ride in my 2016 traverse with an active airbag recall that states the inflator could shoot shrapnel into the cabin where my kids are at. I'd like for my kids to be safe while riding in my vehicle. How much longer is general motors going to take to get this issue fixed. It's been almost 6 months since the recall was issued. I've very upset about this.

The transmission blew while I was driving down the highway and my car dash was flashing transmission hot and My car would no longer move. It was smoking and leaked fluids everywhere. I was scared to death it was gonna catch fire but thankfully it didn-??t. I don-??t k it if the safety recall has anything to do with it but Larry Spacc has literally had my car at his shop waiting to be repaired since August!
