I contacted advantage chevrolet when I received the recall notice telling me to call to schedule repair and was told there is no action to take at this time, why does the recall notice tell me to do this if the dealer isn't going to co-operate, also dealer says I will be notified but recall notice says I will not be notified in the future. I do not have a claim other than being part of this recall.

"takata recall" recall notice on faulty takata driver side air bag in our '08 avalanche received july 2016 from general motors. Have yet to hear anything in return. Followed up with h & h chevrolet in omaha ne (dealership of purchase) 11/2/17 regarding the recall (steve french and nick pabla). Still have not received a return response.
Takata recall . I've contacted at least 2 chevrolet dealerships in my area and asked them both to contact me asap , since they both claimed no parts were available. Neither have contacted me since and I made the 1st phone call last year. It seems as though chevrolet has no true intentions to fix my airbag issue.
"takata recall" in july 2016 I received a recall notice on my 2008 avalanche takata airbag. In june 2017 a service air bag light came on. I called the dealer (williams chevrolet) in elkton maryland and they told me that I would have to pay for the fix. I called chevrolet customer service and was told the same thing. I was told by both parties the recall didn't mean anything that I had to pay for the fix. I told both parties that I felt if there was a recall on this airbag and a service airbag light came on it is their responsibility to replace and fix my airbag under the recall at no cost to me. I called onstar a was told that it should be fixed immediately. The recall notice states the airbag inflators it supplied to gm are defective and may rupture during deployment causing serious or fatal injuries. The truck has less than 93000 miles on it. I would appreciate any help you can get me on this matter. Thanks, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
