Takata recall critical safety concern. Air bag light is on and it needed service cruise control malfunction, break sensor
The airbag indicator light is on and off. Took it to serive centers the light came off for a week then came back again. Mechanic told me the spring coul needs to be replaced got it replaced but the problem is still the same. When ithe weather is cold the lights comes off when its warm the lights are one told the mechanics they said its the connection they tried to fix light will come of for a few days then back again. The second problem is the engine light - they told me its the fuel ejection pump got it replaced but not resolved. I keep taking tthe truck back to the service centers but after a week the light indicators are on. I also failed my inspections due to this problem. The only reason I pass is that it has to be fixed but after inspection the lights are on again. I have read all complaints about this problems but gmc motors doesn't have an active recall for it its just a communication stating the problem. The truck is still running but this safety issue needs to be resolved by the company. And I think thats part of the reason tgey dont make the avalance anymore.
Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2007 chevrolet avalanche 1500. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 16v383000 (air bags) and stated that the remedy and part were not available within a reasonable time frame to schedule the recall repair. The dealer (art moehn chevrolet honda, 2200 seymour rd, jackson, mi 49201, (517) 787-7700) did not give a specific date for when the part would become available. The manufacturer could not provide an estimated date for when the vehicle would receive the recall repair. The contact stated that the front passenger side air bag indicator remained illuminated while waiting an extended period of time for the remedy and repair part from the manufacturer. The failure mileage was unknown. Vin tool confirms parts not available.
"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).
Service air bag light came on. Research online and found that this is a very common problem and should be recalled for safety reasons.
Air bag light is on and it shows in the display when started to "service air bag". No previous accident or any indication as to the cause just was on one day when I started it.
"service airbag system" display on vehicle information readout first appeared around ten years ago. Brought to dealer multiple times for diagnostics and repair (code b0026) but have not been able to correct this safety system defect. Vehicle is way out of warranty and attempting to repair items that have not been able to be fixed under warranty does not seem financially sound. Airbag warning light and "service airbag system" display have been constantly on since 2008.
About 18 months ago the airbag warning light in my 2002 avalanche illuminated and has remained on since. I have the avalanche in the shop for other work and asked that they check the cause of the steady airbag warning light. The diagnosis is that the electrical contact system within the steering wheel is inop and that all airbags in the vehicle will not deploy. Cost of replacement part(s) is about $700. As far as I know at the moment the impact sensors are functional.
Air bag light is on. While airbag light is on, airbags do not function. This is a known issue by chevrolet. Hundreds of people experience the same problem. Needs a recall. This is a safety issue and should not cost the consumer to repair.
