Takata recall

Takata recall. I was told by the authorized GM dealership that the recall for my vehicle was for the passenger side airbag, but they cannot fix the problem because General Motors has not released instructions to remedy the problem. They advised me to wait until I received further notification. I received a notice saying that takata had filed for bankruptcy and I needed to immediately schedule a repair with an authorized dealer.

Takata recall GM recall 49151 for faulty airbags is unable to be performed N my vehicle at dealership due to parts being unavailable in the foreseeable future! I've attempted to make an appointment every 3-4 months since April 2016 with no avail. Recall notice was received by me July 2016! I've been told that there are no parts available to be had or ordered in the foreseeable future. I want it done!

My dash cracked right by the airbag and has caused my airbag warning light to come on. Now my airbag warning light toggles between on and off. My dash continues to fall apart even with a dash mat covering it. I don't know if my airbag will deploy if needed. Plus I worry about shards of plastic hurting me or my family. GM needs to do something. I don't know the exact day the crack showed up but I notice it in January 2017 while getting a stuffed animal out of the truck. Over the past months, the cracks have gotten worse to the point there is a hole in the dash from the shaking while I driving and nothing being secure.

Nothing seriious has happened yet, but I now have a crack in my dashboard and am concerned about the airbag deploying properly. There have been many GM car owners with the same complaint and GM is doing nothing about it.

Takata recall... it is irresponsible for a recall with this high level of danger and liability to stay unresolved with no date to resolve the problem. I am appalled that a recall is identified May 2016 and still sits with no resolution. I have not received anything stating GM's coverage of liability should an accident occur with these inflators. This is a huge risk in my opinion to my husband and myself as users of this vehicle. I expect an expedited repair. I don't feel it's fair to the risk of our lives. We are long time GM product purchasers and hoped to purchase GM for the next vehicle. This is the first time we experience any disregard to correcting a potential major problem.

Dash has cracked around air bag. Engineering design flaw is likely to result in injury or death when air bag deploys.

My truck has 2 major cracks on the dash that just appeared within the last 6 months. I have owned the vehicle since July 2013. One is right in front of the drivers seat on the dash and cracks from my display behind my steering wheel all the way to the windshield. The second crack in the dash is in front of the passengers seat and runs into the airbag. All GM model SUV/trucks from 2007-2013 are having the same problem! I do not understand why GM will not recall this issue. If either of my air bags have to deploy, we could get killed by the sharp cracked shards busting out of the dash and stabbing us. I bought this specific vehicle when my first born son was 1 month old because I was driving a little Honda civic and wanted something safer for my child. Now he is 2 1/2 and I also have a second son now that just turned 6 months. I'm disappointed in Chevy for not fixing this problem when its going to cause a death! it would be really unfortunate if my children or one of their parents get killed because of this dash issue. GM will do nothing to fix the problem and wants to charge $1300 to fix it!!
