I took my 2003 cad.deville to vince webb cad dealer in pensacola fl. Oct.25th to get the keys fixed and the air bags fixed. I took with me the federal safety agency recall number 2002-08-14. The service writer insisted that there is no recall on this car. I then called gm customer service and got the same the same thing. Now I'd like to know witch one is right, your recall number (2002-08-14 or 03v051000)? Or vince webb no? The light that indicates air bag came on about two weeks ago and I feel that there is a safety issue here and the dealer said they will fix it for $90 dollers, but I feel that if they check the recall it might be what the check air bag light is trying to tell me.
