In the mail today i recieved a notice from GM that there is a recall on my 90 Vette. Apparently it is the safety belt retractors on the driver and passenger sides. Im just curios if anyone else recieved this? I find this odd because the car is 15 years old already. You think they would of found this out earlier.
 
How does one know if the recall work has already been done? Is there some where to look up the details on this?

probably an issue finding the car... That recall has been out for some time, unless a new one just popped up?

maybe it was an issue finding the car, but i am the 2nd owner so its not like its been in alot of places.

The service manager at any Chevy dealer should be able to look up the VIN and find out.

i went through this stuff about 11/2 months ago and am still going "round and round" with the a$$ ho--s at gm.

i contacted the local dealership and asked them if certain recalls were ever fixed on my car as i am not the original owner. they gave me a story that their computers only go back 10 years.

then, they contadicted themselves by saying that if a recall repair was not done, it would be in the computer! i told them that i wanted proof that in fact it was done.

at any rate, i contacted gm by phone and spoke with a lady there. she had indicated that my vin # is listed as to a 1998 vette instead of the 88 which it is!

after about a half an hour which it took to get all that straightened out, she seemed very apprehensive as to getting me or giving me any more information so, i asked for the postal mailing address and name of the president of gm.

i blasted off a straight forward letter asking if a rear tie rod issue had been repaired under the recall repair. also, since i cannot go to the dealer empty handed and without a repair authorization from gm, i requested that the reply be in writing. well, some guy from gm called twice and convieniently left no info on my answering machine about my request.

i sent him a letter directly advising him to respond in writing only and still, he called twice (i have not been home for his calls) with the same results. i have since sent the a$$ho-e president of gm, two certified letters telling him of the runaround i have been getting and again asking for the info on my car and requesting proof that the repair was done. "gm" has signed for the letter (3 weeks ago) and still, i have received no written response.

sorry for the long disertation here, but, frustration has to be deposited somewhere! i wish you luck. keep me/us posted as to how YOU make out!
