Gm is not fixing the recalled takata airbags, and i am not able to sell or drive the vehicle.
Takata recall. dealer does not have a fix for my vehicle. nothing has happened to cause the bags to inflate yet, gratefully. just concerned that the vehicle is not fixed and from what i read, there is not a fix on the horizon. i find this unsettling. is there a time line for this fix? do i have cause for alarm after all this time? i have read that the propellant can degrade over time and hot weather. i live in a very hot climate.
I would like to know why every time i check my recalls on this truck i find it does have an airbag recall on it but when i check what is being done about it i get "incomplete remedy not available"? this has been going on since the recall first came out. i would like to know exactly what is going on before i, on someone else, gets injured or i pass away awaiting the repair. i understand general motors doesn't want to spend the money to correct this but what will it take for someone to force them to take the responsibility to save some lives or injuries? my vin for my gmc truck is: [xxx] and it was on the recall, it is model c10753 made in 10/10 engine = 5.3l 8cyl. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Takata recall: i received a notice from tk holdings in 2016 about this recall. i've checked the website several times since but the status is always "recall incomplete. remedy not yet available". i called gmc today and they submitted a report to the nhtsa that they claim shows that the truck is safe and the airbags/inflators do not need to be replaced. they would not tell me when they submitted the report, but the deadline from the nhtsa was 8/17. this looks like a delay tactic by gmc. in the meantime, i have a truck that the nhtsa has deemed unsafe enough to issue a recall. this impacts my peace of mind, as well as any resale value the truck may have. i understand that these things take time but this seems excessive. can you tell me when the nhtsa will issue a response to gmc regarding the report. bottom line, is the truck safe to drive or not?
On november 29, 2018 at around 12:00pm, i was driving down the road on route 460 west toward grundy, virginia, the roads was clear, and the weather was clear, at a speed about 35mph and the ceiling airbags deployed causing the seatbelts to lock up, and shut the truck down to a stop in the middle of the road. the air bags made a loud noise, that a neighboring business heard them deploy. i was not injured only scared and startled by what had just happened. i restarted my truck and pulled off to the side of the road, and could not understand what had happened, and proceded to drive to my mother in law's work place. i then called my mom which was the original owner and she advised me to call ramey chevrolet richlands va because the air bags should not have deployed. i had to reshedule an appointment because of bad weather and being able to get off work to take it to them for their schedule until january 18, 2019. my truck was owned by my mom and dad and has never been in a crash. we have currently ...

Takata recall - nhtsa-2016-0124 when will i be able to have my air bag replaced. dealership stated nothing they can do *js
I have a recall for the airbags on my vehicle but every time i try to get the dealer to repair it i am told general motors is challenging to recall and they will not repair it at this time. i would like to know what i can do to get this recall done before some one gets hurt, and it will be too late. i find having a recall on a vehicle 8 years old and still not repair is unacceptable. can someone give me some help or answers.
