Subject: Urgent Complaint: Airbag Defect and Lack of Resolution Dear NHTSA, I am writing to file a complaint regarding the airbag defect in my 2015 Buick Enclave. As a concerned father of four, I'm troubled by the lack of progress in addressing this issue despite contacting GM multiple times. The recent letter from GM states that the airbag inflators are defective, posing a severe safety risk. Rupture during an accident can release metal fragments, endangering occupants. This has caused immense distress. I've contacted GM for information on replacement parts and ETA. However, their responses are vague, with no estimated timeline for repairs. I can't afford a new vehicle, even with my military discount. Our Buick Enclave is vital for daily activities. I implore NHTSA to investigate, hold GM accountable, and expedite the availability of replacement parts. Please ensure consumer safety and intervene to pressure GM for a swift resolution. We deserve safe vehicles. Restore our faith in the industry's commitment to protection. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
