2010 Chevrolet Avalanche airbags complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 53, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I purchased my vehicle in hanford ca at keller motors. They tell me they cannot replace airbags because they don't have replacements.
Dashboard containing passenger side is severely cracked. In the event of an airbag deployment, dashboard may prevent proper operation of airbag or may shatter resulting in parts of the dashboard being projectiles towards the occupants of the vehicle. Gm dealer cost to replace dashboard is prohibitive. The dashboards should be replaced with new style that gm dealer claims no longer cracks or the airbag disabled.
Takata recall: recall number: 16v381 myself, my wife and kids drive my 2010 chevy avalanche. We live in a region with high summer temps, along with very high humidity levels. I am concerned for the safety of my entire family. What do I do now? For gm to not have a remedy available to replace the faulty airbags is unacceptable. When will this takata airbag issue be resolved? How can I, in good conscience allow my family to drive this truck?
Dashboard cracked in 2 locations, under 50,000 miles on vehicle. One crack located near passenger side air bag that could be dangerous in a crash and effect air bag deployment. Large scale of identical design defects in other similar vehicles and chevrolet will not replace the damaged component without significant cost to owners and if replaced with only have the same problem again as flaw has not been corrected in replacement component.

Takata recall ; cracked dash
"takata recall" there seems to be no fix at our local dealer, but yet we are at risk!
Takata recall has not been resolved. In addition the dash panel is cracked next to the passengers side airbag.
Cracked upper end of dash board. Three separate cracks appeared on the upper part of the dash, one is going right across where the passenger air bag is located. This happened for no apparent reason. The vehicle had about 89000 miles on it when I first observed the issue. It rattles like crazy while driving on city roads and it is probably a mojor safety issue in the event of a air bag deployment.
Thus far, nothing has "happened" with my vehicle, but there has been a recall in effect for the airbags in my vehicle for well over a year and nothing has been done to replace the airbags. I am also having some electrical problems with my truck not shutting off when I remove the key, and the interior dome lights will not turn on when the button is pressed (this has all began since the recall was initiated but not taken care of). I just want my airbags replaced, as they are supposed to be, given the recall, and if the recalled parts are responsible for the additional problems I am now having with my truck, I want those addressed and repaired as well. The length of time this has taken to address is beyond unreasonable and I have been as patient as I can be waiting for this recalled part to be replaced.
"takata recall" - remedy not available at this time per the dealership
I have just received a card in the mail about the takata airbag recall. I have had the vehicle in the shop for oil changes at reliable chevolet and have been told that there is a recall notice for this vehicle but there is no part to replace. I have looked up my VIN number in a web site named www.airbagrecall.com to determine if my vehicle is on the list. My 2010 chevolet avalance is on the list. I am not sure how to proceed since the dealer tells me that there is no replacement part available. I also have a tire symbol appear on my driver's screen. I have spoken to the dealer who indicated that nothing can been diagnosed until the symbol remains permanent.
Takata recall of may 27, 2016. Dealership was contacted today and two previous times since I received the recall letter and has advised me that no solution or parts to repair my recalled vehicle are available.
Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2010 chevrolet avalanche.

The dealer (pete moore chevrolet, 103 n new warrington rd, pensacola, fl 32506, (850) 456-7000) did not give a specific date for when the part would become available.

The necessity of a remedy was dependent upon the federal safety agency's decision regarding gm's petition. Information on the final decision was not yet available until it was determined by the federal safety agency pertaining to the contact waiting to receive the remedy and parts for the manufacturer recall. The contact was not experiencing a failure. Vin tool confirms parts not available.
Takata recall - failure to replace this defective airbag. Status of recall has been remedy not yet available since may 27, 2016.
Dash cracked in multiple locations, one over the instrument panel, second one upper left of passenger airbag, third one upper right of same airbag. Center clip on main part of dash behind speaker broke off due to poor design/cheap material. First noticed dash vibrating when vehicle in motion on highway, downhill from there. Took to dealer and gm, unwilling to repair/replace without $. Quick search shows it to be a major issue in 2007+ avalanches, suburbans, tahoes, escalades, sierras, silverados. Not sure what impact these cracks will have on airbag deployment/passenger safety.
Dashboard cracked at corner of airbag. Possible risk of bodily injury with deployment of airbag on passenger side
I am concerned that there are no replacements for the faulty takata airbags. I called the dealership, and they told me there was nothing they could do. They would not even have an airbag replacement at my own expense to replace the faulty takata airbags. Do I have to be killed or someone else in my truck killed before something is done?

Another faulty gm dashboard. Flaps around while driving - center clip blown out with no structural support to hold two pieces together. Leading cause of dashboard cracking in similar gm vehicles. Concern over air bag effectiveness on account of this issue.

During the calendar year 2016, I have experienced two(2) severe dashboard cracks. One crack in front of my instrument cluster occurred while driving as I heard it "crack". The other crack appeared on the passenger side above the air bag panel. I am not sure when this crack appeared, but concerns me relative to the air bag operation/safety. I have drilled holes at the end of the crack on the driver side in an attempt to stop the progression, but the crack continues to get larger. The dash apparently is becoming brittle and the cracks are continuing to grow. I can only assume that soon I will have pieces of the dash come off exposing electrical wiring and components below the dash. Due to the safety concerns and appearance aspects, I am having the dash replaced by my dealership at a cost to me of almost $1,000. I have seen many complaints of this component defect on the internet, and am surprised that gm does not issue a recall.
I have had my chevrolet avalanche dashboard repaired twice for cracking/rattling. The issue seems to be that the clasp underneath the center speaker of the dash is faulty and breaks easily. This causes the rattling which causes the cracking. The cracks appear right above the instrument gauge and the passenger airbag. The concern is that if cracked badly enough, it could send pieces of plastic everywhere in the case of an airbag deployment. Gm will not fix the issue.
