In recent news, there has been a recall early last week by the GM company for the 2009 and 2010 Chevrolet Impala's for a possibly safety defect on the seat-belts. While most will go ahead to their dealer or car repair Costa Mesa, others may have had enough of this recall business altogether. After all, surely not all car companies have faulty vehicles that miss the fine-tooth comb inspection we all wish every car had, but Smail Pontiac Cadillac GMC does deserve some slack at the same time. Not all car dealerships deserve the brunt end of what the manufacturers are not providing for their consumers.
Cars like Nissan Altima Coupe New York can be more reliable, but it really is just a matter of picking the needle out of the haystack when it comes to the automotive industry and finding the right car company and car. In this case, the 2009 and 2010 Chevrolet Impalas are not the right needle. 322,409 to be exact, are not the right needle--the amount of Chevrolet Impalas that are being recalled.
Most do not realize that there may be a safety hazard, and while there haven't been any injuries or deaths related to this safety belt issue, it is still a very serious matter that you want to treat with caution. The best way to handle such is to either wait for your letter in the mail that should be arriving around October 25th explaining the situation in a more formal matter, or just stop by your nearest Chevrolet dealer and they will check both front seat-belts for you.
What most dealers are looking for is an installation problem with the front seat-belts webbing that may have not been properly secured to the lap-belt anchor pretensioner that is mounted to the side of the seat. This is a safety problem because if a crash were to occur with these faulty seat-belts, the anchors may separate in a crash and thus cause injury to the passengers within the car.
If the dealers find an error with the original installation then manufacturers have instructed the dealers service departments to re-install the anchors free of charge and to also make sure any repairs related to the condition are also to be done free of charge. We will keep you posted with the recall as more news is released.
