July 2015

Takata recall for passenger side air bag inflator issued july 2015. I have contacted dealership and GMC repeatedly since receiving this recall and as of today they have no idea when parts will be available. Their suggestion was to not let anyone ride in the front passenger seat. I want something else to drive until issue resolved.
