Summary

While driving home from work doing approximately 70 miles per hour the rain channel insert on the passenger side of the vehichle separated from the clips that hold it into place. Gm and Chevrolet know the glue used to hold the parts together fails and allows for this to happen. Took the vehicle to the dealership to have it replaced and was told it was not warranted because my vehicle was over the bumper to bumper warranty. This channel guards can become projectiles at higher rates of speed. Reported drivers side channel failure to dealership in May and it was never replaced.

Vehicle Identification Number: 3GNCJNSB1LL******
Summary

This vehicle was sold to me with only one buckle fastener in the backseat when there’s three seatbelts. It somehow passed General Motors and the dealerships as a “safe vehicle”. I’ve been trying to get in contact with a manager since the beginning of this year and received no response. I’ve included photos of the multiple attempts of contact and back seat with only one buckle. I want the car to be taken back immediately as the dealership is careless and unresponsive.

Summary

UNKNOWN. On July 16, 2021 as I was about to enter my vehicle, I pulled open the driver door, and it scraped across my left calf. It definitely hurt, but I didn't think anything more of it. When I arrived at my destination I noticed a blood spot on my jeans. At that point there wasn't much I could do. So, when I got home (about 3-1/2 hours later) I looked at the wound (certainly not serious), put some disinfectant and a band aid on it. This was not the first time for this to happen. My greater concern is for children who may be standing too close to the vehicle when the door is pulled open. Thank you for your anticipated attention to this matter. Unfortunately, I seem to be unable to attach the photos that I took.
