TAKATA RECALL ... I WAS IN PROCESS OF GETTING A VALUE ON MY VEHICLE THRU KBB.COM AND KELLY BLUE BOOK HAD 5 RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. ONE OF THEM WAS THE TAKATA RECALL.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT I NEED TO. THANKS....

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THAT I BOUGHT THIS FROM NEW IN 2011 AND THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME THAT GENERAL MOTORS WOULD RATHER LAWYER-UP THAN TO HAVE TO REPLACE AIRBAGS. I PERSONALLY AM POINTING THE FINGER AT NHTSA AND HOLDING THEM ACCOUNTABLE FOR ANY INJURIES OR DEATHS AS A RESULT FROM A FAULTY AIRBAG DUE TO FACT THAT THEY WILL NOT ENFORCE GM TO REPLACE THEM. WHAT GOOD IS NHTSA IF GM CAN BULLY THEM AND REFUSE TO COMPLY. AS I HAVE SAID, I PERSONALLY AM HOLDING NHTSA ACCOUNTABLE FOR AND INJURIES OR DEATHS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS RECALL.

EVERY TIME WE CONTACT A DEALER TO GET OUR AIRBAGS CHANGED OUT WE ARE TOLD THEY DON'T HAVE ANY TO CHANGE OUT SO NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO RECTIFY THE DEFECT AIRBAGS IN MY TRUCK.

"TAKATA RECALL" NHTSA RECALL NUMBER-16V381 I'M MERELY CONCERNED THAT'S ITS BEEN 3 YEARS SINCE I RECEIVED THE TAKATA RECALL LETTER, AND THAT GM'S RESPONSE HAS BEEN, "RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE." FROM WHAT I'VE GATHERED FROM THE RECALL, VEHICLES IN HOT, HUMID CLIMATES ARE MORE AT RISK. THIS ALSO CONCERNS ME, BECUASE I PURCHASED THE TRUCK IN 2011 WHILE LIVING IN HAWAII. I LIVED THERE FOR TWO YEARS, MOVED BACK TO TEXAS FOR A YEAR, THEN MOVED BACK TO HAWAII FOR ANOTHER TWO YEARS, AND THEN BACK TO TEXAS, SHIPPING MY TRUCK BACK AND FORTH THROUGH THOSE MOVES. HAWAII IS EXTREMELY HUMID, AND MORE OVEN THAN NOT, HOT. AND TEXAS IS EXTREMELY HOT AND CAN GET HUMID. I'M WORRIED THAT MY TRUCK MIGHT BE MORE AT RISK.

THE DASH IS CRACKING AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND THE ABOVE THE DRIVERS SIDE SPEEDOMETER. THIS POSES A DANGER TO ALL OCCUPANTS IF A CRASH WERE TO HAPPEN AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WERE TO GO OFF. THIS WOULD SEND SHARDS OF BROKEN PLASTIC DASHBOARD EVERYWHERE. UNSAFE TO SAY THE LEAST.

RECALL ON AIRBAGS. NO REMEDY FROM GM. DISCOVERED ON MY OWN THAT GOOD 2012 AIRBAGS HAVE SAME PART NUMBER AS MY RECALLED 2011 AIRBAGS. DEALER WILL NOT INSTALL GOOD 2012 AIRBAGS IN MY TRUCK. I WANT YOU TO DEMAND THAT GM BE ORDERED TO REPLACE MY RECALLED AIRBAGS WITH GOOD 2012 AIRBAGS.

TAKATA RECALL: THE TRADE IN VALUE ON MY METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED 2011 CHEVROLET SILVERADO WAS DRASTICALLY REDUCED. IT COST ME NEARLY $5000 IN ACTUAL VALUE, AS A DEALER CANNOT RESELL A TRADED IN VEHICLE WITH AN ACTIVE RECALL AND MUST SEND IT TO BE AUCTIONED. SO I HAVE SUFFERED BOTH SEVERE EMOTIONAL DISTRESS FROM CONSTANTLY BEING IN FEAR THE AIRBAG IS GOING TO RANDOMLY BLOW MY NUTS OFF, AND CRIPPLING UNDUE MONETARY HARDSHIP BECAUSE OF THE FAILURE OF TAKATA OR GM TO RESOLVE THIS RECALL. WHICHT HAS BEEN ACTIVE FOR 5 [XXX] YEARS I MIGHT ADD. MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY BECAUSE OF MY ANXIETY TO RISK DEATH BY AIRBAG DECAPITATION!! PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE YEARS AGO, RECALL #49151. I'VE CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER ENOUGH TIMES THAT THEY KNOW ME AND KNOW WHY I'M CALLING AND HAVE BEEN VERY NICE. THE DEALER SAYS THAT HE NEEDS PART # 2049151 TO FIX THE PROBLEM BUT HE SAYS THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE. PLEASE HELP. THANKS

THIS AIR BAG RECALL STILL HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED AFTER GREATER THAN THREE YEARS. WHY ARE WE STILL ALLOWING CARS WITH TAKATA AIR BAGS TO BE SOLD IN THIS COUNTRY WHE THEY HAVE NOT RESOLVED ISSUES WITH THOUSANDS OF CARS ALREADY ON THE ROAD? ARE YOU WAITING ON A CERTAIN NUMBER OF CITIZENS TO BE INJURED BEFORE TAKING ANY FURTHER ACTION?

TAKATA RECALL CHEV HAS NOT DEALT WITH THE REMEDY ON REPLACING AIR BAGS. FORD HAD A SETTLEMENT AND OTHER DEALERS HAVE DEALT WITH THE REPLACEMENTS. I WANT CHEV TO FIX MY VEHICLE NOW. ITS BEEN THREE YEARS OF WAITING!

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED A GM RECALL NOTICE (#49151) IN JULY 2016 FOR A DEFECTIVE TAKATA PASSENGER AIRBAG WHICH COULD ACCIDENTALLY INFLATE. ALTHOUGH GM STATES IN THE NOTICE THAT THE VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE, IT ALSO STATES--IN THE SAME LETTER--THAT SUCH AN ACCIDENTAL INFLATION COULD RESULT IN "SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES". (THEY CALL THIS SAFE!!?) TWO VISITS TO MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP HAVE RESULTED IN NO ACTION. I NOW UNDERSTAND THAT TAKATA HAS FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY.
