3 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/25/2020

After recently purchasing a used 2015 gm vehicle from a non-gm dealership, I made a service appointment with a local authorized gm service shop to have three outstanding safety recall issues addressed. My appointment was for 7:30 am on 8/25/2020 and I brought my vehicle to the shop in the morning of 8/25. After 4:30 pm I returned to retrieve my vehicle, and the service shop had not even brought it in to lol at the issues. No work had been performed, despite the service department having my vehicle in their possession not only during the timeframe specifically scheduled for them to perform this service, but the entire remainder of the work day. The safety recall issues remain unresolved.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 12/09/2015

Vehicle was stationary, driver placed ac on highest setting, but nothing blew out (mylink screen also displays no air). Navigation stops working in middle of route and changes destination to a different country (mexico). Vehicle feels like it wants to die in stop/go traffic and while in stationary position. When making turns at any speed, driver will begin braking, and vehicle accelerates on its own causing many near miss accidents including almost falling off a bridge. Lastly, many 2015 Suburbans have been recalled for their airbags, but mine has not. Concerned that ours may be impacted and do not wish to end up injured or a fatality. Nhtsa has documented fatalities of airbag failures from vehicles not recalled that were 2015 tahoe and Suburbans. Vibrations are so loud they cause migraines and earaches in all occupants.
