Recall: GMC and Chevrolet Vehicles Due To Faulty Air Bags

Posted on: 11-18-2011 Posted in: personal injury, product liability, Product Recall

According to news sources, about 1,798 2012 GMC Savana and Chevrolet Express vans made by General Motors have been recalled due to faulty air bags that may not inflate in the case of a severe frontal collision.

The recalled vehicles, the 2012 GMC Savana and the Chevrolet Express vans, were recalled after it was found that the vehicles had faulty airbags which in turn did not pass the safety requirements for occupant safety created by the NHTSA.

The recalled vehicles have been made by General Motors from June through October.

Consumers with the recalled vehicles can take their cars to dealers for a free replacement of their airbags. Anyone with questions or concerns should contact the company at 800-462-8782 or 800-222-1020.

As a Sacramento personal injury lawyer, I’ve seen recalls of this kind in the past and know the severity of the hazards they entail. I hope this information can help raise awareness about this recalled product. If you or a loved one has been injured through the use of a defective product, speak with a Sacramento car accident lawyer to learn about the legal options available to you.
