Problems with 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe AIR BAGS

Cracked dashboard, front passanger airbag and also by driver side

Airbag recall was issued in 2016. the dealers say they don't have the parts yet. what should i do to get this resolved?

My vehicle has had an airbag recall for 2 years. chevrolet refuses to acknowledge their is an issue. they keep saying the airbag is safe. yet my vehicle remains on a list for recall. at what point are they going to be required to honor the recall? other car makers have acknowledged an issue and fixed the recall. when you ask the chevrolet spokesperson if they would put a loved one in the seat with the airbag recall they simply state the vehicle is safe to drive. they refuse to answer the question. how can a national recall be issued but a company such as gm not be held accountable to fix the issue and let this linger for years.

I am needing to have my airbag corrected.... it is part of the takata recall. it has been open for a while and the website indicates there is not a correction. i have children and this needs to be fixed now!!!!!

I reached out to the site and was told they believe it is safe from internal conversations i was not allowed to view. then when i requested a fix as the recall information on the site says results could be fatal injuries i was informed gm believes it will be fine for years.

Takata recall. it has been over three years and no help or remedy from gm. we cannot afford a new car and don't feel safe in this one. we are looking for an update or solution to this issue.

Takata recall-- in 2017 i received notification via mail from takata to get my airbag replaced as part of a recall. i have called dealerships no less than 5 times in the past 2 years as indicated to do so on the form to get replaced. when i call dealerships, they tell me the parts have not been sent by manufacturer yet for replacement. i called again today, august 7, 2019-- 2 years later-- and the parts are still not in. what is going on here? this is absurd. again, the notice is attached below for more information.

I have a recall on my air bag and i want it fixed before it becomes a problem

Takata recall my 2007 chevrolet tahoe has air bags that are defective and could though scrap metal into the driver and cause death. but chevrolet will not replace my air bags. chevrolet does not have a remedy for the defective air bags, the nhtsa gave gm until august of 2017 to provide a remedy, but it is now september of 2019 and i still have the original air bags. when can i have a vehicle that is safe to drive?

Takata recall nothing has been done to correct this problem !

Takata recall!!! i received an important safety recall dated july 2016. it is now august 2019, and i'm still driving my tahoe with the faulty air bags, and i have had no luck with getting the problem resolved. this timeline is ridiculous. what are they waiting for, me to get in an accident, and be injured, or worse killed?

Takata recall: the gm website still says "incomplete. remedy not yet available"; however, i received my notice in july of 2016 via a notice from gm. the letter references campaign id number 16v381.

Takata recall i bought the vehicle from a private seller and was not told about the recall. i found out this past weekend when i was at a dealership to possibly trade in the vehicle. the recall on my chevrolet tahoe 2007 is incomplete and the remedy is not yet available. my complaint is specifically because there is no remedy at this time meanwhile i am driving around in a unsafe vehicle. i have to much invested in this truck to sell it for way under book value, which is what dealerships are offering.

Airbags have been recalled, it's showing a warning in the screen to check airbag! when are they going to fix this issue?

My 2007 chevrolet tahoe has developed multiple severe cracks of the plastic dashboard on both driver's side and passenger side. the passenger side crack connects to the airbag opening. i am concerned that if i get in an accident, and the airbags deploy, that it could launch plastic dashboard shards into the passenger area, injuring passengers, or worse, block the deployment of the airbag leading to serious injury or death.

Dashboard is cracked in multiple spots. including above the passenger side air bag. this manufacture defect could cause flying plastic debris incase of an accident

My dashboard has cracked, unexpectedly (having only 76,000 miles) on my tahoe ltz 2007. in my review and research of this issue i have seen a common trend with gm for these models. among this trend, and incidentally from my research, they are all cracking in the same spots as mine. above the driver's side instrument panel and the upper left corner of the passenger front airbag. in lieu of these these dashboard cracks, and combined with the existing recall that has no solution for fix- surrounding the takata inflators among the airbags, this becomes a serious safety hazard should there be an accident. the time to make corrections and fixes, not at the owner's or passengers' expense, is before an accident occurs. i would appreciate any advise or insight surrounding this matter. i do have photos on my phone for future documentation should it be needed. your assistance is greatly appreciated in this matter. please note, this tahoe is well taken care of and has always been garaged. it's documented history and appearance attest to that fact.

My dashboard has numerous cracks on and around passenger airbag compartment which compromise safe and effective deployment of passenger airbag in collision.

Takata recall. my complaint is that i received a notice from my dealer/via onstar notifying me that i could now schedule replacement of the inflators. i made an appointment, but when i brought the vehicle in (which was the main reason i scheduled maintenance online) they said it wasn't ready for the fix and that the recall number was "not correct, not in their system". i verified thru nhtsa recall info that the recall number was in fact correct. i feel duped into bringing my car in and of course they then told me all sorts of items that should be looked at (over and above the factory maintenance schedule, e.g., due to time vs. mileage). so i feel that i and anyone else receiving these emails are getting taken advantage of. i replied to their email that i had scheduled the repair and no one cont
