Gm has not made parts available to complete this repair. Their website says the federal safety agency is still reviewing the need, so no action on their part is planned. Please get gm to complete the repairs on their vehicles.

Takata recall
Takata recall. I was told by the authorized gm dealership that the recall for my vehicle was for the passenger side airbag, but they cannot fix the problem because general motors has not released instructions to remedy the problem. They advised me to wait until I received further notification. I received a notice saying that takata had filed for bankruptcy and I needed to immediately schedule a repair with an authorized dealer.
Takata recall I received a notice in the mail today of a pending bankruptcy for taquita and my airbags are on the list to be remedied but nobody has a remedy yet I don't know what to do next
My dash cracked right by the airbag and has caused my airbag warning light to come on. Now my airbag warning light toggles between on and off. My dash continues to fall apart even with a dash mat covering it. I don't know if my airbag will deploy if needed. Plus I worry about shards of plastic hurting me or my family. Gm needs to do something. I don't know the exact day the crack showed up but I notice it in january 2017 while getting a stuffed animal out of the truck. Over the past months, the cracks have gotten worse to the point there is a hole in the dash from the shaking while I driving and nothing being secure.

Nothing seriious has happened yet, but I now have a crack in my dashboard and am concerned about the airbag deploying properly. There have been many gm car owners with the same complaint and gm is doing nothing about it.
Takata recall... It is irresponsible for a recall with this high level of danger and liability to stay unresolved with no date to resolve the problem. I am appalled that a recall is identified may 2016 and still sits with no resolution. I have not received anything stating gm's coverage of liability should an accident occur with these inflators. This is a huge risk in my opinion to my husband and myself as users of this vehicle. I expect an expedited repair. I don't feel it's fair to the risk of our lives. We are long time gm product purchasers and hoped to purchase gm for the next vehicle. This is the first time we experience any disregard to correcting a potential major problem.
Dashboard cracks around passenger airbag if airbag is deployed broken dash will become dangerous debris.

Dash has cracked around air bag. Engineering design flaw is likely to result in injury or death when air bag deploys.
Cracked, broken dashboard. Cracked in 2 corners of the passenger air bag. Crack goes all the way across to the drivers side. A section around the speaker has completely broke off. Cruise control no longer workers. Some speakers work sometimes, other times other ones work. Makes horrible rattling sound. Dealership says won't cover it and a new dash is over $800 for parts.
Dashboard cracked and keeps cracking one right by passenger airbag and it started while driving.
I have the same safety concern many other owners are having. My dashboard is cracked in multiple spots, mainly around the airbag and instrument cluster. I believe this would affect the airbag from deploying properly or send sharp pieces of the dashboard into the cabin if impacted. I have contacted gm several times with zero assistance or concern on their part.
Instrument panel "airbag" warning light (red continuously on) illuminated. After first incident initial engine ignition start bit (built in test) clears airbag fault for no more than 1 minute every start sequence at which time it triggers a "red dash warning icon light." I took vehicle to dealer who claimed necessary fix is owners responsibility and expense. They also declared they had "no knowledge of chevy avalanche or silverado airbag recalls or issues." I called gm customer service help line and lodged a complaint. Case number with gm is 71-148283766. Gm stated that they did not feel responsible for the issue. Both the 2007-08 chevy silverado's' as well as the 2011 plus chevy avalanches are all under dot takata airbag recalls. The 2009 chevy avalanche is a growth product of the chevy 2008 silverado!!! I believe I am one of the takata airbag customers!!
The dashboard cracked in 2 places. One crack is over the instrument cluster on the drivers side and the other is on the passenger side next to the air bag. I was told that the replacement part has been modified to correct this issue, but gm will not pay to replace the dash. Will the dash shatter if the air bags are deployed?
