Takata recall i received my first recall notice in july 2016 and it is almost 3 years later and still no resolution to the passenger air bag problem. i'm concerned for any passenger that rides with me in the event that the air bag would deploy. seems like 3 years is way to long to get this fixed.

Dealer stated gm was not replacing air bags

Takata recall why have the owner of these vehicles been neglected and no repairs solutions has been offered?

My husband was stopped at a light when the side airbags deployed. we contacted gmc they sent someone to investigate. that person said due to some water leaking in on them is what caused it. nothing was wet though. now they cannot do anything to help. seems like if they know they have a defect in the front airbags it is a chance the side ones are also bad. they hang like curtains. have not been able to drive it since the seatbelts locked also. the cost to repair would be $6000. this is something that was no fault of ours. there has been so much time put into trying to get this resolved. we cant e the only ones this happened to. suggestion?

Takata air bags. i have been to the gmc dealership service department several times over the last 2-3 years since the recall was placed on my pickup for the takata air bags trying to get the air bags replaced or fixed. i have been told that gm has not come up with a solution or resolution for my vehicle to replace or repair the recalled takata air bags. this absurd that the recall has gone on this long and gm does not have a plan or a way to repair or replace the takata air bags in my 2008 gmc sierra 1500 pickup truck. please look into this and force them to fix these air bags before more people are killed or severely injured.

Takata recall - received nhtsa recall #2049151 gm # 16v381, in 2016. i've called mckinney tx gmc buick numerous times over the past 2 years & have been told repeatedly that parts are not available. today i called & spoke with a gm rep (ph# 866-996-9463). i was told that my particular vin is not included in the recall & is safe to drive (he read me a long statement that i'm sure gm tells them to read). when i asked him why, when i enter my vin in their website search, it says my vehicle is at risk, he couldn't answer. since receiving the original notice over 2 years ago, i've purposely limited the miles driven on my 10-yr-old truck, because of their recall letter. now, they're saying the letter was wrong, but they're not willing to send me something stating that. i have zero faith in what that gm rep told me, & i'm really hesitant to drive my vehicle on the highway. please advise if my vehicle is, indeed safe to drive, ow whether i need to continue pursuing gm for repairs. if they can put safe airbags in a new truck, why can't they put one in mine?

I was in an accident and hit a fence and then a power pole. the impact pushed the power pole about a foot and my engine was pushed into the interior. the airbag did not deploy. at this impact should the airbag have deployed?

Takata recall checked today with wilson county motors in lebanon, tn and they still have no remedy for replacing airbags for this vehicle. what are my options?

Takata recall recall 49152. i have been in contact , several times, w/ gmc about the recall since receiving the letter in early 2016. whereas we have yet to experience any issues with the truck, it is approaching 10 years old and we are afraid it is only a matter of time. we dont want to drive it for fear of rupture. today we were told that a decision is to be made by the end of dec. 2017 that may relieve gmc of this burden altogether which we find completely unsatisfactory. we would like this replaced as it is the right and safe thing to do & at gmc's expense. is there anything we can do besides sale/trade it in, only to pass the problem on to someone else? thank you

Takata recall: there was an indication on the takata site that the truck should be taken in for a replacement of airbags, but according to the gm dealer there was no fix at this time and the vehicle was deemed safe to drive by gm.

Airbag recall issued may 2016, dealer (medved castle rock, co) indicates 16 months later (november 2017) that it still does not have replacement parts. i continue to drive an unsafe vehicle courtesy of gm. this is 3rd call to dealer to fix this critical recall.

Takata is going bankrupt. repairs must be done by dec. 27, 2017. when i contact the dealer they tell me there are no parts release by takata to remedy this problem. please advise.
