BLYTHEWOOD-- According to ABC news, General Motors car company is recalling over 4.28 billion cars worldwide; the problem is faulty air bags.
More specifically, the problem is the coding that controls the airbags. This problem, so far, has led to one death. There were also two other incidents that caused injuries.
General Motors is recalling the vehicles and solving the problems with no charge to the customers.
This recall will also affect customers trust with the company. Why would customers continue to buy from General Motors if they have discovered flaws in their cars?
“I trust that they fixed the problem,” freshman Bailey Keasler said.
“I would consider purchasing a car after the recall has been addressed...It’s the businesses that do not take ownership for their mistakes that I refuse to patronize,” said teacher Sue Lever.
“Hopefully the recall will correct the problem,” Biology teacher Anitra Jenkins said.
Jenkins, along with Keasler, agreed that General Motors should supply rental cars during the recall. General Motors is not supplying rental cars to the affected customers.
