Takata recall. The chev dealer claims they do not have repair kits. A year and a half later. Do we have to be injured first ? they are not pushing the issue, the gov needs to add pressure
Takata inflators. It has now been over a year the airbag on my vehicle has still not been replaced. I was put on notice it could cause me harm yet no remeedy has been found. Clearly the airbag needs to be replaced so that my family is safe. Now I get notice that tk holdings has filed chapter 11 bankruptcy. What does this mean for me and my family and our safety. We now have a 40K vehicle that is not safe to drive and have no recourse" Chevrolet should be liable an required to replace my airbags so that I don't have to fear if I am in an accident the airbag may kill me or my passenger.what is being done to have the airbag replaced" every time I call the dealer they say there is nothing can be done I want this fixed now.
Takata recall. NHTSA expiration date on GM's filing of inconsequentiality has passed without further information being provided to owners. Unable to get replacement scheduled through any dealership. Unable to get amplifying information. GM says it is safe, but the recall is still outstanding without resolution.

Takata recall. My 2011 vehicle has been in the very high humidity of central Florida its entire life. NHTSA and GM said there would be a decision by August 2017. I called my Chevrolet dealer today (10/19/2017) and was told there is no recall and a remedy is not yet available. I feel very vulnerable continuing to operate this vehicle in a very hot and humid environment. When are we going to get a decision and remedy?
I have a large crack going down the dashboard of my truck the stems directly from the passenger airbag. I have contacted both the dealer as well as Chevrolet regarding this issue and have not been able to find a solution. I am concerned that if there would be some sort of an accident where the airbag deployed, my dash would either improperly support the airbag at explosion or pieces of scrap plastic would fly around the cabin
The contact owns a 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact received a recall notification for NHTSA campaign number: 16V381000 (air bags); however, the parts to do the repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer (lone star Chevrolet of houston, Texas) was contacted and confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy.

Dashboard has cracked in multiple places (joint near passenger airbag & several places above instrument panel on driver side). We're concerned that a front end impact accident could cause a piece to shear off and cause damage to either the airbags or the passangers that they are supposed to protect. Dashboard has already been replaced once at our expense. Vehicle has mostly been garage kept.

Takata recall. This is no resolution and it effects the resale value as well. I'm driving a vehicle that is deemed as possibly unsafe and GM has no solution. I believe there should be a class action lawsuit for punitive damages. I have tried to trade my vehicle and the dealership has stated that they can not resell my vehicle.
Dash has cracked in (2) places that could cause safety issues with air bags if bags were needed to deploy. Vehicle has 38K miles and has always been garage kept, so sunlight damage and armor all protectant are not the problem.

Multiple cracks across the dashboard have formed, in some cases completely bisecting the dashboard pieces. I'm concerned that if the airbags are deployed or in the event of a crash these sharp pieces of plastic will become projectiles. I was just quoted a price of $1400 by my dealer to replace the dash, but it seems this is a common problem.
My dash board has split from my front passenger airbag to the defrost vent. Dashboard is pulling away and vibrates excessively. There was nor accident or incident. I just happened to notice one day. The date selected is just an guess.
Cracks appearing on the dashboard. Tahoe is gently used and garaged. Severe vibrations of the dashboard, when driving, is causing the cracks. The central speaker on the dash also vibrates.
