The dash is cracked in three spots, over the instrument panel, vent area and at the corner of the air bag.
Takata recall it has been more than 2 yrs since I was notified of the airbag recall. My avalanche sensors are stating the airbag system has failed. I have been to the internet web sites and the dealership dozens of times only to get the same feedback...no solution has been determined, nothing they can do. It is pretty clear to me that they know how to fix the issue, but they are using stall tactics to avoid incuring the cost they are legally bound to spend. My particular make/model/year was supposed to prioritized and completed by march 2018. Since it is clear to me the stall tactics have been working with no accountability, I thought maybe I would trade the car in for a safer one without air bag problems....no dealer will take the car in on trade because of the air bag problem. So I am stuck driving an known-unsafe-vehicle and putting my family at risk the airbag system won't arm, it's a known recall issue, and I cannot get it fixed makes no sense and is completely unacceptable
Takara recall. On 7/11/18 I was in a head on car accident and front air bags s did not deploy, truck was driving 35mph when another truck pulled out into my lane and I hit him very hard , police noticed and asked several times if airs bags deployed and they did not
1-takata recall 2- rear differential- I had to completely replace the rear differential at 153,000 miles. I have seen a lot of the same problem reported on different online forums. There should be a recall on this. It cost me over $3,000. It had many broken parts inside of it. It could have locked up the rear wheels and caused a very unsafe condition. Thank you
Takata recall I am still wait to get my air service. I received a recall in 2016 and still waiting for service

Received notification of recall october 2017. Took vehicle to dealer and was advised no parts available I will be notified when parts are available. How long do I have to wait to fix this issue?
Tl* takata recall. The contact owned a 2008 chevrolet avalanche 1500. While driving approximately 60 MPH, all six air bags deployed with force. There was no warning or impact prior to the deployment. The contact coasted the vehicle to the side of the road and it was towed to a dealer (5 star chevrolet in 300 s boone st, aberdeen, wa 98520: (360) 637-6869). The insurance company investigated the failure. The dealer sent information to the manufacturer. The contact waited more than a week for a response. The manufacturer indicated that due to the vehicle being turned over to the insurance company, they would not provide an investigation. The driver was not injured. The approximate failure mileage was 100,000. *tt
