2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Air Bags

I confirmed the vehicle has a recall. Called the Dealer and they informed me that the dash may crack while performing the recall but is not included in the recall. Any cracks in the dash would be customer pay. This doesn't seem right.

See attached document for complaint

I spoke with GM a couple of times and GM refuses to help with the cost of dash repair that could happen if the airbag recall is fixed. My dash is already damaged so the repair would totally ruin the dash and can cost over $2000.00 if repairs are made, therefore my airbag recall cannot be completed

DRIVING ~25 MPH IN RESIDENTIAL AREA, ALL SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON. NOTHING WAS HIT BY THE VEHICLE AND NOTHING HIT THE VEHICLE. ONE PASSENGER DRIVING VEHICLE.

FOR OVER TWO YEARS I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RECALL FOR REPLACEMENT OF AIR BAGS. GM RECALL NUMBER 2049151 SAID WAITING FOR REMEDY FROM MANUFACTURER, WHAT THE HECK IS TAKING SO LONG LONG ?

I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO DON RINGLER CHEVROLET, TEMPLE, TX AS SOON AS I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTIFICATION, IN 2016. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE , THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY GET THE PARTS. I CALL THEM ONCE A MONTH AND I WENT BY LAST WEEK AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT IN

I CONTACTED A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP TO HAVE MY VEHICLE SERVICED AS IT RELATES TO THE RECALL FOR THE AIRBAGS. I WAS TOLD THAT THE REMEDY IS NOT AVAILABLE BECAUSE THERE ARE NO PARTS YET. IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN AND THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY, MY PASSENGERS AND I COULD BE IN VERY BAD SHAPE. THIS COMPLAINT IS ABOUT THE RECALL BEING ISSUED; NO WAY TO SERVICE OUR VEHICLES. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! I NEED TO HAVE MY VEHICLE SERVICED ASAP

I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALERS SEVERAL TIMES TO FIX THE AIRBAG RECALL. THEY SAY THAT IT IS A RECALL AND THEY CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. SO WHAT DO I DO TO GET IT FIX.

NOTHING HAS HAPPENED, THANKFULLY, BUT THESE VEHICLES HAVE THE TAKATA AIRBAGS AND WE STILL AREN'T ABLE TO GET THEM REPAIRED. HOW LONG UNTIL THERE IS ACTION. COMMERCIALS TELL US TO GET THE REPAIRS DONE, BUT WE CAN'T YET.

NOTHING HAS HAPPENED BUT I DON'T WANT TO GET TO THAT POINT. WHEN IS THIS TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL GOING TO BE RESOLVED? IT HAS BEEN OVER 3 YEARS SINCE IT WAS PUT OUT. I WOULD LIKE SOME ANSWERS. IF I WAIT FOR AN INCIDENT TO OCCUR, IT WILL BE TOO LATE. MY WIFE SITS AT THAT PASSENGER SEAT AND WE LIVE IN GEORGIA WHERE IT IS VERY HOT AND HUMID. ALL OF THESE CONDITIONS SUGGESTS A HIGH PROBABILITY THAT AN INCIDENT MAY OCCUR. PLEASE REACH AND ASSURE YOUR CUSTOMERS THAT A FIX IS IN THE WORKS AND NOT GHOST THE POPULATION THAT OWNS AND OPERATES THESE VEHICLES EVERYDAY. THANK YOU.

MY CAR IS ONE OF THE MANY VEHICLES THAT ARE BEING DRIVEN ON A DAILY BASIS RISKING THE LIFE OF MY FAMILY BECAUSE WHOEVER IS IN CHARGE OF THIS RECALL HAS NOT DONE ENOUGH TO FIX THE PROBLEM REGARDING THIS FLAWED AIRBAGS THAT MAKE US PLAY RUSSIAN ROULETTE WITH WITH OUR LIFE'S EVERYDAY THAT WE HAVE TO DRIVE OUR CARS TO GO TO WORK OR PICK UP OUR KIDS FROM SCHOOL. WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A REPAIR SINCE WE BOUGHT OUR CAR ON MAY 2017. BUYING AMERICAN DOES NOT SOUND LIKE A VIABLE OPTION ANYMORE. SO FAR WE HAVE DRIVEN THIS DEATH TRAP FOR ABOUT 26000 MILES. EVERY MORNING BOTH OF US AS DRIVERS PRAY THAT THAT DAY WON'T BE THE DAY THE AIR BAGS INFLATE IF WE GET IN A FENDER BENDER

RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL FROM CHEVROLET IN JUNE 2016 CONCERNING DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATORS. THE RECALL STATED I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. IT IS NOW AUGUST 2019 AND NO ONE HAS CONTACTED ME ABOUT THE RECALL. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS.

'TAKATA RECALL' RECEIVED AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL(GM RECALL 49151) IN JULY 2016 SINCE THEN I CALL EVERY YEAR TO CHECK ON THE STATUS OF THE RECALL AND THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THERE IS NO NEED TO TAKE ACTION NOW. IT HAS BEEN OVER 3 YEARS NOW SINCE THIS DEFECT HAS NOT BEEN AVAILABLE TO REMEDY MY VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS TIME FRAME HAS BEEN LONG ENOUGH TO MAKE MY VEHICLE SAFE AGAIN, SO MY QUESTION IS HOW MANY MORE YEARS DO I HAVE TO WAIT AND IS MY TRULY VEHICLE SAFE?

DASH AROUND AIRBAG AND INSTRUMENT PANEL IS SEVERELY CRACKED. KNOWN MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT.

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2011 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE DASH IS CRACKED NEXT TO THE PASSAGE SIDE AIR BAG AND BY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ON THE DRIVER SIDE. I AM CONCERNED IF THE AIR BAG DEPLOYS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE THE DASH WILL EXPLODED AND SEND SHRAPNEL AT THE PASSENGER.
