The airbag deployed when I wasn't driving or hit anything. It was in park. I put my foot on the brake to shift into reverse and it deployed.
2007 Chevrolet Avalanche airbags complaints
Page 3 of 9: complaints 41 to 70 of 225, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Received safety recall letter dated july 2016 for takata airbags but everytime that I contact multiple chevy dealers they say that gm has not released this recall and is still arguing with the federal safety agency about the need for the recall. Meanwhile I am driving a vehicle that could kill me. It is fairly simple, either the airbags are the same defective technology as the ones recalled or not. Force them to get on with the recall repairs. I did contact my us repr phil roe;s office on this matter and he suggested filing this complaint with the federal safety agency.

Received notification of the takata corporation air bag problem. Went to nearby gm dealer to address this problem. Service representative at serra chevrolet stated that they did not have the necessary replacements and toke my information to contact when the parts become available. No notification has been received since the initial disclosure was made over 4 years ago. Did return to the dealership around six months after my initial visit and was told the same information that the required parts have not been received.
The dashboard is cracked around the passenger side airbag. This presents a hazard as shards of plastic could become projectiles if the airbag is deployed. Nothing happened to cause the cracked dash, it seems to be a normal problem with these vehicles and it's creating a hazard.

Takata recall - contacted chevrolet about the air bag recall, they are unhelpful in wanting to replace the air bag even though the dashboard is starting to crack. I feel that the cracking of the dashboard could cause an accidental deployment of the air bag. Chevrolet is not concerned with my claim. Chevrolet case # 8-3853651363
Takata inflators we were parked at a store when we were leaving we heard a big loud pop like an explosion or like someone hit us on the passenger side smoke came out of the hood on the passenger side , seat belts locked up very tight emergency lights went on and dash board announced 'service airbag' drove it home very carefully. The next day I had a friend come connect a diagnostic computer to see what's the problem it said airbag deployed that same day I called :[email protected] they called me back early the next morning they were able to tow it to chevrolette turlock auto mall to inspect it took them a week to even take a look at it finally my husband went in and now they are trying to say it's smthing completely different that the air bag is intact it even cracked the dash board on the side u can see the air bag compartment is lifted but it has to do with some seat belt sensor we are meeting tomorrow to see what they came up with but didn't sound good they were saying we had other problems like water leakage which we never had we have had the truck since 2011 never had a major problem with it we took good care of it and we want it fixed very disappointed in chevrolet they were willing to pay for car rental but wanted me to pay for insurance out if my pocket I've been borrowing my sisters car and I dnt think that was fair either
