"takata recall" my vehicle ignition switch has went out and my " service air bag " light has came on as well. I searched my VIN number on this site and "0 recalls" shows up as a result. However its hard to believe that the exact same problems that was once recalled are both in tact on my vehicle. In addition to, I recently searched "ignition switch recall" on the recall list and "chevy impala 2013 " came up as result and that is currently the vehicle im driving and that is the problem im having. I reached out the dealership and they informed said my vehicle isn't listed for recalls however like stated before I have that same vehicle with the same problem and nothing can be done. To add more information dealership even informed that the recall has expired but the problem had just begun.
