Takata recall letter received from GM Cadillac nearly 2 (or 2+) years ago. Have been to tom peacock dealership that I purchased the vehicle from every 4-6 months since then. Told every time that they can't help, they don't know when replacements bags will be in. I purchased my vehicle from GM Cadillac - not takata. I want GM Cadillac to replace these defective air bags immediately.

Takata recall GM recall #: 2049151 NHTSA # 16V381 date issued: May 27, 2016 recall title: Passenger airbag inflators recall description: Takata corporation ('takata') has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2007-2011 Cadillac Escalade, Escalade esv, Escalade ext, Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado 1500, Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Sierra 1500, Yukon, Yukon XL, and 2009-2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500 and GMC Sierra 2500/3500 vehicles. This is based upon takata's decision that front passenger airbag inflators it supplied to GM are defective. GM has submitted to NHTSA a petition for inconsequentiality and NHTSA has granted GM until August 2017 to complete its investigation and to submit all data supporting the petition. If the petition is denied, GM will conduct a recall of the airbag inflators covered by takata's defect information report. For more information visit www.regulations.gov and search for docket no. NHTSA-2016-0124. Safety risk description: The propellant in some types of takata airbag inflators can degrade over time, especially after long term exposure in hot and humid regions. If the propellant degrades to a certain level, the inflators may rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries. Repair description: The necessity of a remedy is dependent upon NHTSA's decision on GM's petition for inconsequentiality. Additional information will be available following that decision. In the meantime, you can also check the status of this recall at my.GM.com/recalls. GM considers your vehicle safe to drive. Recall status: Incomplete. Remedy not yet available

Cracked dashboard on 2 out of every 3 GM SUV / trucks. Mine is one of them. It is a safety issue that if I were involved in a crash, would my airbag deploy properly, would the dash shatter into tiny pieces and be like shrapnel. GM knows that this is a huge problem with most 2007-present SUV / trucks dashes. My GM case number [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'
