TAKATA RECALL.....RECEIVED AIR BAG NOTICE LAST YEAR, AND TOLD ME I WOULD RECEIVE NOTICE WHEN TO CONTACT DEALERSHIP. CURRENT CARD FROM TK HOLDINGS SUGGESTED I CONTACE DEALERSHIP. I CONTACTED DEALERSHIP (11/30/2017) WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THEY SAID THERE IS NO REMEDY AVAILABLE. WHEN ONE IS AVAILABLE, TAKATA WILL SEND ME A NOTICE.....LOL....NOW WHAT???

RE: TK HOLDINGS INC., ET AL THIS IS THE 2ND NOTICE. HOWEVER, A VEHICLE RECALL NOTICE WAS RECEIVED MUCH EARLIER THAN THIS. (UNFORTUNATELY I DID NOT KEEP A COPY BECAUSE OF DEALER'S RESPONSE AT THAT TIME.) WE CALLED CHEVROLET OF FAYETTEVILLE, AR AND CRAIN BUICK GMC OF SPRINGDALE, AR. BOTH DEALERS SAID THERE WERE NO PARTS AVAILABLE & WHEN THERE WERE WE WOULD RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE. THIS IS THE SAME RESPONSE WE RECEIVED OVER A YEAR AGO.

THE VEHICLE SHAKES OUT THE BLUE WHEN I'M DRIVING APPROX.75 MPH

DASH ON MY TRUCK IS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES, WITH ONE NEAR THE AIRBAG. I'M CONCERNED THAT IF MY AIRBAG EVER INFLATES, PIECES OF THE DASH WILL BECOME PROJECTILES DUE TO HOW BRITTLE IT IS. THIS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.

LASTLY, IF THESE AIR BAGS WERE DEFECTIVE ENOUGH TO ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL, DOES IT REALLY TAKE 15+ MONTHS TO GET PARTS AND EFFECT REPAIRS? OR IS THIS JUST SOME PLOY TO KEEP PUTTING IT OFF IN THE HOPES THE OWNER SELLS THE TRUCK OR IT GOES TO THE 'BONE YARD' BECAUSE IT'S WORN OUT? THANK YOU.

"TAKATA RECALL". I SPOKE TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP PERSON (ALL STAR CHEVROLET NORTH, 9352 PLANK ROAD, BATON ROUGE, LA) ABOUT REPLACING MY TRUCK PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. I FIRST CONTACTED THEM ON NOVEMBER 7, 2017 AND WAS TOLD THE DEVICE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. I CONTACTED THEM AGAIN ON MAY 10, 2018 AND SPOKE WITH AMANDA. AMANDA SAID SHE WOULD CHECK WITH HER MANAGER TO DETERMINE IF THE PART WAS AVAILABLE TO SCHEDULE THE FIX BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED. I DECIDED TO CALL CHEVROLET CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER (1-800-222-1020) AND I SPOKE WITH JANE. JANE EXPLAINED THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL BUT YOUR WEB SITE AND CHEVROLET WEB SITE (HTTP://MY.GM.COM/RECALLS) STATE THAT MY VEHICLE IS PART OF THE 'TAKATA RECALL'. JANE MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT CHEVROLET HIRING A THIRD PARTY ENGINEERING FIRM THAT DETERMINED THAT VEHICLES LIKE MINE WAS NOT AFFECTED. I ASKED FOR THIS IN AN EMAIL OR LETTER BUT SHE SAID SHE WAS NOT AUTHORIZED TO RELEASE THIS INFORMATION IN WRITTEN FORM. 'ELECTRICAL ISSUE'. VEHICLE INSTRUMENTATION PANEL COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WHEN I SEARCH THE INTERNET. ALSO VEHICLE SHOWS THE 'AIRBAG' NEEDS SERVING THEN RIGHT AFTER THIS THE 'CHECK ENGINE' SYMBOL APPEARED. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THESE ISSUES ARE NOT RELATED. THANKS.

I CALLED THE DEALER AND THE DEALER STATED THEY DONT HAVE THE PART ON HAND.

I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATE THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS.

TAKATA RECALL...I WAS NOTIFIED IN JULY 2016 OF A RECALL ON TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATORS INSTALLED IN MY VEHICLE. THIS RECALL STATED THAT THE PROPELLANT IN THE INFLATOR CAN DEGRADE OVER TIME, ESPECIALLY AFTER LONG TERM EXPOSURE IN HOT AND HUMID REGIONS. WHEN THIS PROPELLANT DEGRADES TO A CERTAIN LEVEL, THE INFLATOR CAN RUPTURE DURING DEPLOYMENT, CAUSING SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES. AS OF NOVEMBER 2017, THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY AVAILABLE FOR THIS RECALL FOR A DEFECTIVE ITEM THAT COULD RESULT IN DEATH FOR ME OR MY FAMILY. I HAVE CALLED ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF A REMEDY SEVERAL TIMES, WITH THE MOST RECENT CALL TAKING PLACE IN AUGUST 2017, WHEN I WAS ASSURED THAT THE SOLUTION WOULD BE AVAILABLE BY THE END OF OCTOBER. IT IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. I LIVE IN ALABAMA AND HAVE OWNED MY TRUCK FOR 7 YEARS, SO MY AIRBAG PROPELLANT HAS BEEN EXPOSED TO THE EXACT CONDITIONS AND LENGTH OF EXPOSURE THAT COULD RESULT IN DEATH AS STATED IN THE RECALL FURTHERMORE, IT ANGERS ME THAT THE RECALL STATES THAT THIS PROPELLANT, WHEN EXPOSED TO HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, COULD RESULT IN DEATH BUT THEN GOES ON TO STATE THAT "THE VEHICLE IS PRESENTLY SAFE TO DRIVE". I THINK THAT GM AND TAKATA HAVE HAD PLENTY OF TIME TO ESTABLISH A REMEDY FOR THE PROBLEM. IT IS OBVIOUS TO ME THAT NEITHER COMPANY CARES ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS. SOME ACTION NEEDS TO BE TAKEN AGAINST THESE COMPANIES TO ENSURE THAT THEY TAKE ACTION TO REPAIR THESE POTENTIALLY DEADLY PROBLEMS.

MY DEALERSHIP DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS RECALLL

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. I CALLED THE LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER AFTER RECEIVING THIS LEGAL NOTICE CONCERNING VEHICLES WITH TAKATA AIRBAGS ON 11/2/2017. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT TAKATA HAS NOT ISSUED REPAIR PARTS FOR THIS PARTICULAR RECALL. WHAT DO I DO TO GET MY VEHICLE REPAIRED? AT THIS TIME THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN INJURY. I HAVE NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE AIRBAG CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY IF THE AIRBAG GOES OFF. PLEASE HELP.
