In owners' own words
I received a recall notice years ago & wrote you asking why I haven't heard from you re: my airbags & you said they didn't have any & asked me to tell you where I'd like them fixed. I told you & have never heard back. It's been years & I drive around with bad airbags on a recall notice? There's always been something wrong with the driver's seatbelt also & it dings all the time.
