This recall has been pending since GMC filed a petition for inconsequentiality with NHTSA. The status provided to owners is information which hasn't been updated since 2017. It's almost 2021. This is ridiculous. What was bhtsa's decision on the petition filed in 2017?

Each time I brought the vehicle the vehicle in to have it repaired, the dealer says there are no parts. Each time I check the VIN site, it tells me that there is no remedy available. When will GM repair these defective airbags? the vehicle is still being used for normal family uses.

I own a 2010 Chevrolet Avalanche ltz that was purchased used in 2015 (38,000 miles with a small crack just above the air bag to the left, right at the corner of the air bag on the dash board. Since I've had the vehicle, it has cracked more over time to a longer length on the left and right corner and left of the steering column. The vehicle is up kept but the dash board keeps cracking. Im noticing the multiple vehicle Avalanche's have this same problem and why hasnt it been resolved or a recall been placed.

Takata recall and the remedy to fix it is unavailable for over a year now. GM keeps telling me that I have a safe vehicle.
- Spring Hill, FL, USA
Dashboard containing passenger side is severely cracked. In the event of an airbag deployment, dashboard may prevent proper operation of airbag or may shatter resulting in parts of the dashboard being projectiles towards the occupants of the vehicle. GM dealer cost to replace dashboard is prohibitive. The dashboards should be replaced with new style that GM dealer claims no longer cracks or the airbag disabled.

Takata recall: Recall number: 16V381 myself, my wife and kids drive my 2010 Chevy Avalanche. We live in a region with high summer temps, along with very high humidity levels. I am concerned for the safety of my entire family. What do I do now" for GM to not have a remedy available to replace the faulty airbags is unacceptable. When will this takata airbag issue be resolved? how can I, in good conscience allow my family to drive this truck"
- Cranberry Township, PA, USA
Dashboard cracked in 2 locations, under 50,000 miles on vehicle. One crack located near passenger side air bag that could be dangerous in a crash and effect air bag deployment. Large scale of identical design defects in other similar vehicles and Chevrolet will not replace the damaged component without significant cost to owners and if replaced with only have the same problem again as flaw has not been corrected in replacement component.
