TAKATA RECALL- NO REMEDY AVAILABLE. MY "SERVICE AIRBAGS" LIGHT IS ON AND NEED TO FIX THIS.

TAKATA RECALL, GM STILL HAS NO RECALL ACTION ON THIS THEY HAVE NO FIX AVAILABLE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THESE AIR BAGS. THE GM RECALL NUMBER IS 2049151. GM IS CONTESTING THIS RECALL BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO JUSTIFY THE REPLACEMENT OF THESE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS. I HAVE NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS VEHICLE I JUST WANT THE AIRBAGS REPLACED AS RECOMMENDED BY TAKATA AND IN THE NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 16V381. RECEIVED A NOTICE OF RECALL FROM GM ON MAY 27, 2016 ADVISING ME OF THE RECALL STATING THAT GM CONSIDERS THE VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE AND THE STATUS OF THE RECALL IS "INCOMPLETE, REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE" GM IS STILL PROTESTING THIS RECALL AND HAS NOT RECEIVED A FINAL RULING FROM THE NHTSA ON ITS POSITION THAT THE GM VEHICLES ARE SAFE TO DRIVE. I BELIEVE THAT GM IS STALLING AND SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO REPLACE THESE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS.

"TAKATA RECALL"

TAKATA RECALL- SINCE MARCH 2017, MY WARNING LIGHT SYSTEM HAS INTERMITTENTLY DISPLAYED A "SERVICE AIRBAG" MESSAGE. THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH MY VIN, HOWEVER SINCE MAY, 2016 THE RECALL STATUS REMAINS AS "RECALL INCOMPLETE, REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE". I BELIEVE THIS TO BE AN OBVIOUS SAFETY CONCERN.

TAKATA RECALL: MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS HAVING TAKATA INFLATORS BUT NO DEALERSHIP I HAVE CONTACTED CAN OR WILL REPLACE THESE INFLATORS.

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS CONTACTED ABOUT 15 MONTHS AGO INITIALLY...THEN HEARD NOTHING. NOW I'VE RECEIVED ANOTHER POSTCARD STATING THAT I MUST TAKE CARE OF THIS...AND AM BEING TOLD BY GM THAT THEY HAVE NO FIX FOR THIS. HOW CAN GM BE PRODUCING NEW CARS WITH NEW AIRBAGS, AND NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS RECALL GOING ON 2 YEARS? GM NEEDS TO FIX THIS ASAP!

TAKATA RECALL

BROKEN PLASTIC DASH BOARD( TOP PLASTIC) LEAVING SHARP JAGGED EDGES AROUND AIRBAG PANEL ON PASSENGERS SIDE WHERE AIRBAG DEPLOYS. DASH CRACKS IN OTHER MULTIPLE LOCATIONS ABOVE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WITH SHARP PLASTIC BROKEN PIECES ON DRIVERS SIDE NEAR INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND I USE A WINDSHIELD SHADE IN THE SUN. VEHICLE HAD 8000 MILES ON IT. NEW BREAKS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ON DASH BOARD FROM THERMAL EXPANSION AND MATERIAL STRUCTURAL FAILURE OF THE DASH BOARD TOP PLASTIC. ALSO HAS DIS-COLORATION ON THE AIRBAG PANEL PLASTIC PANEL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH BOARD. DASH BOARD AIRBAG PANEL LOOKS TO BE DETERIORATING AND MAY POSSIBLY FRAGMENT IN AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. I HAVE CONCERNS WITH FACIAL LACERATIONS AND CONTUSIONS IF A BAG DEPLOYS AND THIS PANEL ALONG WITH OTHER SHARP BROKEN DASH BOARD PLASTIC FRAGMENTS BECOME PROJECTILES FOR BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER ON THE UPPER TORSO, FACE, ARMS AND POTENTIAL BLINDNESS FROM AN EYE INJURY FROM SHARP DASHBOARD PLASTIC FRAGMENTATION INTRUSION. NEWEST CRACKS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WERE WITNESS ON A WARM DAY RECENTLY WHEN I ENTERED THE CAR I HEARD A CRACK AS I SHUT THE DRIVERS DOOR. THE AIRBAG I NOTICED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2015 IN THE LEFT CORNER OF THE AIRBAG COVER, THE FORWARD MOST CORNER OF THE DASH THAT IS AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG PLASTIC PANEL RECENTLY SHOWS SIGN OF WHITE DISCOLORATION STREAKS THROUGH THE PLASTIC AND WILL NOT CLEANUP. PLASTIC LOOK AS IF IT IS DETERIORATING AND CHANGING COLOR. I'M VERY CONCERNED WITH THIS PANEL AS THIS DEPLOYS WITH AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE. ALSO CONCERNED THAT THE DRIVER AIRBAG COVER ON THE STEERING WHEEL LOOKS TO BE MADE OF THE SAME MATERIAL AND THAT FRAGMENTATION MAY OCCUR HERE AS WELL IN A AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

TRAVELING UNDER 10 MPH IN NEUTRAL, BOTH SIDE AIR CURTAINS DEPLOYED. TRAVELING ON DIRT ROAD. NO POT HOLE, ROCK OR BUMP INVOLVED. NO WARNING OF DEPLOYMENT.
