2 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem of the 2012 Cadillac Escalade

Failure Date: 02/15/2021

Every so often my service air bag light will appear on the dash upon starting the vehicle. I thought it could have something to do with moving the seats back and forth and a wire issue. I received a safety recall for the passenger side frontal airbag inflator shortly after this started happening. When I called about repairing the recall they said they didn't have parts available to correct this issue. I have children that ride in the front and I'd hate for this to explode while driving down the road on them or anyone for that matter. When will there be a solution? how will we know the part is available? please fix ASAP!!.
