Takata recall. My airbag has not been replaced by gm. My dashboard is cracked all around the passenger side airbag container. My car repeatedly notifies me that my airbag needs servicing.

Takata recall 2-6-17 chevrolet dealer in mt. Pleasant, sc told me my subject tahoe had diminished value because of the air bag issue. Why have i not been told about this safety matter and appropriate follow up action taken for our safety? I have only owned chevrolets all my life and find this issue very troubling. Is this vehicle safe to take a four day trip to another state? Please advise. Thanks

Dashboard complete crack at left upper corner of passenger airbag cover dash plate. There is atakata airbag recall since 2016 that gm still has pending replacement. Crack happened while vehicle was stationary in parking lot this summer. Since cold small hairline crack is now completly thru dash and pushed airbag dash cover up. I am afraid that if the vehicle gets jarred the bag will release.

Takata recall i recieved a recall notice dated july 2016 about this recall. I am told there is no resolution as of yet. Why??? How long will all parties involved with issue be allowed to stall and forgo the right course of action that is to repair the vehicles affected. Many innocent people are being put at risk needlessly by this course of inaction !! I respectfully log this complaint on november 23 2017.

Takata recall no one can answer my questions. Case reference: nhtsa 1153284 1. Gm had 2+ years to investigate the airbag they put in my vehicle. My question is: why nhtsa would allow them a time extension until the end of the year 2017. Their time to investigate was granted an extension by nhtsa as per my call to nhtsa 2. As the air bag on my car has never been deployed in the 10 years of ownership (contains…
