May 2018 CrashInjury

The rear differential has failed. The warning light came on, so I took my car in to be checked. The part has been on back order for 3 weeks and I am now being told it will be 2+ more weeks before I will hear anything, along with all other GM customers in the country that are waiting for this part. I have been told by cadillac there is no specific date on its arrival. Should this not be a recall item if the part is not available for this long? I am not sure how many people are waiting for it as of yet.
