This has been an open recall for years and sandy sansing Chevy in pensacola Florida has continued to say they can't fix it. With the update to the recall information in early February I called the dealership and they stated they ordered the part but it's back ordered for two weeks. It's been over two weeks and now they haven't returned my call. I want my truck fixed or I want it purchased back. It is not safe for anyone to ride in my front seat.

Ni got a notice about passenger side air bag being defective and jim barnard Chevrolet can't help me in the replacement of the air bag inflator"?" so, how many years will I have to wait til it's corrected. Being a road safety hazard, if my passenger is seriously hurt, due to GM not repairing the problem. Then I can sue GM for big bucks!! now that I have the proof of the defective air bag inflator.

Received recall notice when I pulled the auto check VIN report for my truck. Called autonation Chevrolet - waco to schedule service repair and had it scheduled. Due to a scheduling conflict I had to reschedule my appointment at which point I was told that GM has not released the information to fix this recall. So my airbag can explode and kill me but GM has not remedy yet and I was given no timeline as to when a remedy will be or will ever be available.

GM recall #2049151 (NHTSA #16V381) was issued May 27, 2016, over 4 years ago. The status of the recall has remained "incomplete. Remedy not yet available" for years while I drive around in a vehicle that the NHTSA has deemed unsafe, placing me and my family in danger. The us government, through must order GM to comply with repairs/replacement of these affected vehicles immediately and ensure compliance by significant and on-going fines for each vehicle not remediated until compliance.

I received a recall announcement in the mail a few years ago and after asking the dealer several times, I kept receiving the answer that the fix was not available yet. I finally researched the issue I learned that Chevrolet is saying they do not have to fix it. I think they are in court about it. What do I do?
