Takata recall - General Motors and their authorized dealers have refused to replace the faulty passenger air bag on our 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe even though its been recalled in 2016. The NHTSA recall number is 16V381 and manufacturer recall number is 2049151 and even though their is a recall for our vehicle's air bag, all of the General Motors dealers we contacted said nothing was being done to recall the faulty air bag and that the car was "safe to drive" which is unacceptable. I want to resolve my defective airbag problem with our vehicle but I am powerless to force General Motors to correct the problem without expensive litigation. I refuse to accept the statement of "your vehicle is safe to drive" from General Motors and their dealerships knowing that our car could be a potential death trap in the future.

Takata recall: I received a "important safety recall" notice from GM dated July 2016. Have not received a fix to the problem. Now I received 10/26/2017 a notice that the company takata is filling chapter 11 bankruptcy. I'm not pleased with GM leaving their customers hanging. I didn't buy the car from takata I bought it from GM. The dealer said there's nothing they can do until GM informs them on what to do.

My airbag light turned on about 9 months ago, I took it to the car dearship and they advise that the airbag infact have a recall, but they dont have the fix. What is this? how can I pay so much for a vehicle to drive unsave, that at any minute they could deflate, or if something happens I could be killed in an accident, because of their malfunction. I need a resolution on this matter asap. I have 2 kids and I drive 1 hour to work and back six days a week.
