Problems with 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 AIR BAGS

Takata recall i have pursued through the chevrolet dealerships for over a year a remedy to the airbag recall. my understanding is that they were to provide a free repair or replacement of the airbag inflators. every time i have called to get a repair scheduled, they have either told me that the repairs are not available, or that the parts aren't currently available, and they will call me when they are. every time i follow up on that call, they seem to not have my information. i just read something online saying that they were supposed to have a final decision from the nhtsa in august 2017 reference my vehicle and others. it is now november, i received another recall notice in the mail recently, and still the chevrolet dealerships are not cooperating in the repair process.

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2011 chevrolet silverado 1500. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v381000 (air bags). the parts do to the repair were unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the dealer (findlay buick gmc prescott, 1006 commerce dr, prescott, az 86305 (928) 445-7350) was contacted and confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy. the manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. the contact received a postcard from tk holdings, alerting him that they filed for bankruptcy. the contact had not experienced a failure. vin tool confirms parts not available.

Takata recall; called classic chevrolet of grapevine, they told me that the recall notice was sent out prematurely. my concern is if i get into an accident before the parts become available and the airbags don't function properly, leading to more legal trouble. find this very unfair and unprofessional.

Received notice today from "tk holdings inc." that takata has filed ch.11 bankrupcy in the us & mexico. states to contact my local dealership to schedule a free repair. my local dealer hasn't been given direction from general motors on how to proceed. i haven't had a problem (yet) but how can i know whether i'm driving a vehicle that may have an air bag blow at any time? is the nhtsa going to hold the vehicle manufacturers responsibility for including dangerous/potentially dangerous parts? and general motors can't even tell me if my vehicle is dangerous and they do not have a resolution for this federal recall.

Dealership does not have the airbags due to takata has not created a new airbag.

Dealership does not have new safety bags to replace due to takata not have created a new air bag.

Takata has not come out with an airbags to replace the defective one. this is per all dealerships.

Called ron anderson chevrolet in yulee, they said they did not have the parts to fix the problem, there was nothing thay could do.

Takata recall contacted gordon chevrolet upon receipt of first recall notice and i was told no fix was available. contacted gordon chevrolet today upon receipt of the chapter 11 notice and again was told no fix was available. i have yet to experience any injuries or damages.

Takata recall. active recall may 27, 2016. called dealer( jim browne, dade city, fl) where truck purchased and was told parts not available yet.

Regarding the takata recall, i received recall notice 49151 from gm on 7/2016 for my chevy truck. it said "you will be notified when parts are available..." that was well over a year ago! i spoke with gm customer service today on 10/14/2017 about this and all the young man said was that there is nothing to worry about. evidently gm and takata are in some kind of disagreement over the airbag issue while my family driving around in a vehicle with defective airbags. also, the dashboard by the passenger airbag compartment cracked about 6 months ago and this really concerns me. please help!

There is a crack in the dash at the site of the passenger airbag. after further research, it appears that it is very common. i am afraid this area of the dash will fail upon airbag deployment causing injury. i do not know when the crack started.

The dash board cracked in september 2017 in front of the steering wheel. crack is now about 4 inches long

Tl* the contact owns a 2011 chevrolet silverado 1500. when the contact purchased the vehicle, he failed to notice a crack had formed over the front passenger side air bag cover. the air bag warning indicator illuminated on and off. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the dealer was not contacted. the manufacturer was not notified. the approximate failure mileage was 81,681.

The airbag recall is still stating no remedy available. this is unsettlingly driving a ticking time bomb.

Takata recall the dealership will not fix the airbag.

Takata recall- the dealer in aiken, south carolina said they could not get the parts and i still get notice in the mail from tk holdings inc. about contact my dealer to schedule a free repair.. i have lost value to my truck plus hurting my ability to sale the truck. unable to ride on the passenger side i need answer what to do..

Takata recall was received on july 2016 and despite checking with dealer twice i still do not have a date for estimate for when it will be fixed.

Takata recall airbag light takes over instrument information cluster.theres no information on when to be repaired or when the airbag will be replaced.2) dashboard cracked and growing near passenger airbag .i never used armor all etc...concerned about the wiring underneath.truck currently has 80000 miles .normal use

There is a crack on the dash that runs along the compartment housing the passenger side air bag. this crack could potentially tear the airbag upon deployment making it useless in the event of a crash. the dealership informed me this was a common occurrence and it could be replaced but that the replacement may crack due to body shifting during operation and sun exposure. now the dash is beginning to crack in other places (stress fractures). not sure when these cracks started whether the vehicle was in motion or stationary.

Drivers side airbag not working. paid 100.00 to have it checked and it has recall. unable to use horn or cruise control. worried if in an accident will not have drivers airbag.

I bought my 2011 silverado with only 36,000 miles on it, before it ever reached 40,000 the dash cracked in the corner of the passenger airbag, and now above the odometer. i'm concerned for the safety of myself and my family if the airbag was to go off and send shards of sharp plastic though the vehicle. i would appreciate gm recalling and fixing the issue that they are already aware of.

Takata recall the dash is cracked in two locations, at passenger airbag and above the instrument cluster for no apparent reason. vehicle is in excellent condition otherwise. there may be a safety issue due to the proximity to the passenger airbag.

Dashboard cracked around airbag

Takata recall dealers said they don't have airbag replacement still waiting to receive from manufacturers

Dashboard cracking and breaking around airbag. possible plastic shrapnel in event of airbag deployment. in my time of ownership exposure to elements has always been limited with use of covered parking or sunshade. chemicals have never been introduced to the affected area.

Dash board is cracked around airbag. airbag deployment would mean huge shards of plastic flying around cab. potentially penetrating skin and eyes. huge pieces. this is not safe.

Takata recalls: nothing has happened al of today. if the piece of crap car salesman at the lot where we bought this truck a year ago would have given us a car fax as we ask and then when back for and written for we would not have bought the truck. now my question is why do we have to wait for injury or death due to this company selling defective merchandise, why hasn't there been a fix, solution, or something done about this problem? why are american consumers subjected to this danger and these big corporate companies get away with it. i have family and a small great grandson that rides with me. why should i have to worry about their safety when i put them i my vehicle? if you want the name of the crooked car lot doing this stuff, please let me know i would love to blast them all over the world. now the bottom line what is going to be done about this problem before we die or are bleinded for life??? this is ridiculous.

Tl* the contact owned a 2011 chevrolet silverado 1500. the contact stated that while driving at 35 mph, the vehicle rear-ended another vehicle. the air bags did not deploy. a police report was filed. there were no injuries sustained. the vehicle was towed to a collision center. the vehicle was destroyed. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 185,000.

A crack appeared in the dash causing a separation in the section behind the airbag i am concerned the pieces could cause injury if airbag is deployed.

Dashboard crack at the top left front corner of the air bag. the vehicle was stationary in my driveway overnight.

Took it to walker jones in waycross ga cause the light to the airbags was staying on. they hooked it to computer and said it was thermostate was the problem. replaced it and the air bag light is still coming on. only thing they want to do it fix everything else but the airbag.

Manufacturer failed to remedy recall in a timely fashion.

Dash cracked around the passenger side air bag.

Chevrolet does not have replacement airbags for 2011 chey silverado, despite the recall. need information on how to find replacements asap.

Passenger airbag light off and on at random times. seat not used often at all. passenger presence system shorted. cost 775.00 + 125.00 paid for diagnostic test. failed inspection. shows recall online but in gm data base not on our vin. passenger seat and it is hardly to never even used.

Dashboard crack next to airbag (upper right corner) and over instrument panel. i am concerned that in a wreck where the airbag deploys the dash will become a deadly projectile. the cracks occurred without any undo stress on the dashboard. the vehicle was not in motion when it occurred.

Takata recall: i have faxed and emailed ceo and executives of general motors several times each day regarding this matter. i am going on vacation and do not feel safe driving the vehicle with these airbags. the notice that we just received this month, stated the vehicles are currently safe to drive. it does not state anything about in the future (i.e. next month, next week, etc.). they knew about the defect but just decided to send out recall notices late last month. i want a rental car for the week i need to drive out of town, at their expense, because we should have notified earlier and they will not verify (the executives) nor backup the engineering department that the vehicles are safe to drive. i want a letter from the ceo that verifies this or a rental vehicle for one week until my vehicle is repaired. we live in hot texas and the vehicle is always exposed to hot and humid temperatures! this vehicle is not safe.
