Takata recall - received recall notice. Dealers claim this vehicle parts have not been released for repairs at this time. Contacted several GMC and Chevrolet dealers in area. No damage at this time, but what good is notifying me of bad parts if there is no intention to perform repairs.

"takata recall". have not been to obtain replacement airbags for my truck since August 4, 2016 from any dealerships in my area. Yesterday, I received a card in the mail from tk holdings Inc that takata is filing chapter 11. Since I am unable to find any dealership to replace my airbags for over a year now, I am filing this complaint. I need to know where and whom can replace them for me. In the meantime, what will happen if there is an accident while I am driving this truck?

Takata recall I have called ron carter autoland/GMC requesting the airbag component for replacement, but was told that there are no replacement parts available and have been none. I then asked when replacements would be available and was told there was no time table for such. I mentioned that this recall has been going on for years with nothing being done at this time. She told me she knows and understands, but it is out of her hands.
