I rec'd a notice from gm stating that a recall occurred on my airbag and that when the parts were available, this would be replaced. After months with no update, I called gm on 11oct2016. I was told then that the recall wasn't applicable to my airbag and "they don't feel that this poses a threat." no other notice was sent to me with this information. I also own another make vehicle where the same airbag is being replaced. The parts are available in the us. I am afraid to drive my truck because of this recall and would like to complain about gm's lack of information and action to rectify this issue.

Dash board is cracking and brittle. Very sharp edges on the plastic could become a hazard during a wreck. Contacted gm and since the vehicle isn't under warranty, there isn't anything they could do. Takata recall: vehicle is under recall, but gm says it is safe to drive. Then why is it under a recall?

Takata recall, gm recall 49152, the federal safety agency campaign id number 16v383. First, I want to know whether takata or general motors or chevrolet division of general motors is primarily responsible to me for making the necessary replacement and repairs to my before-mentioned vehicle. Second, I want a timeline as to where we are today, and what steps will be taken in the future, and a timeline for when these steps will be implemented. We are now at least ten (10) years into this mess. I want to know exactly how and when my vehicle will be put into the safe operating condition I paid for it to be in when I bought it ten(10) years ago!

Takata airbag. Got recall letter for airbag recall and called gm. Gm informed me that they do not consider this airbag a problem and at this time they have no plans to fix the issue! I wasn't happy with their answer so I called the federal safety agency for their opinion. I gave the person at the federal safety agency the recall number and VIN number and I was informed that I should not drive the vehicle with a front seat passenger until the vehicle is fixed.. Who is correct in this issue? Is gm waiting until until the body count is so high they can't ignore the issue?

The air bag light began to flash and the message "service air bag" came on both while stationary and moving, also when first starting vehicle and driving. The light would come off and on or stay on for a day or two. Took vehicle into an auto repair shop and they were unable to "read the modules". Then took vehicle into chevrolet dealer repair shop. The first time they repaired the clock spring in the steering wheel. Air bag light and message stayed off for less than 24 hours. Currently working with dealership to try and fix problem. Concerned about safety of air bag and whether they are going to protect my family if needed.

I entered my truck and found a crack in my dash running from the vents all the way over my instrument panel. The next day, my airbag light went on telling me they needed servicing. Yesterday I was driving over some pot holes in a road and a big chunk of my dash cracked and jumped out onto my dash. After getting home, I see there is another crack on my dash. Before calling a dealer, searched to find out what was going on. I found the crack and the sensor were related and other have been having the same problem and no recall yet. What?? That chunk that flew out is as sharp as a razor. It could have cut me or landed in my eye causing injury. How can I drive the car knowing the whole dash could shatter at any time? I don't have the money to fix this issue. It should be recalled and fixed by gm!!

Takata recall service air bag light is on and my vehicle is listed as having takata airbags. Have not received a recall notice but don't feel like getting killed in an accident because chevy denies there is a problem. This is a safety issue which chevy and not me should take care of.

The day after I bought this truck, while starting to back out of a parking space at my mechanic's shop, my foot went to the floor. I stopped, got out and found a large puddle of brake fluid on the ground. They took the vehicle into the shop and found all of the brake lines were badly rusted and 1 had completely failed. During the replacement process they also found the fuel line was rusted so I had it replaced as well. Shortly after that, the service airbag warning started coming on when driving the truck. Transport canada has a recall for this specific problem as follows from their web site: transport canada recall # 2014510 recall date2014/11/07 notification typesafety tc systemairbag manufacturer recall number19270b categorylight truck & van recall details on certain vehicles, the sensing and diagnostic module (sdm) may corrode due to a significant quantity of snow and/or water containing road salt or other contaminants entering the vehicle and saturating the acoustical padding beneath the floor carpet. If sufficient moisture collects and is retained in the padding, it may cause excessive corrosion under the module; compromising the module seal and allowing water intrusion and system malfunction. This may result in illumination of the airbag readiness light along with a "service airbag" message on the driver information center and, in certain instances, may cause inadvertent deployment of the seatbelt pretensioner and/or airbags. Inadvertent airbag and/or pretensioner deployment could result in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will remove the acoustical pad above the sdm, inspect, and if necessary, replace the sdm.

I own a 2007 chevrolet silverado (VIN [xxx]). Recently I had an air bag service warning which was dealer diagnosed as a failed sensor and the unit replaced. My review of the failed part showed the same damage as the failed sensor I had replaced last year. The damage indicates the sensor cases were cracked open by over tightening of the mounting hardware (refer to the attached photograph). The sensor is a high value part (part plus installation $ 375) that has to have a high reliability. The corrosion present at the case failure must have caused the diagnostic system to show a fault. Since this is critical part, an installation torque must have been designated and the torque either was wrong or improperly adjusted. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Driving down the road and noticed a crack all of a sudden show up on my dash near the passenger air bag. Not exactly sure what time of day it was or exactly where or when it happened.

Moving my truck from the back yard to the front yard, traveling less than 3 MPH, no one on the passenger side. The passenger side air bag deployed first and then about 2 seconds later the drivers side airbag deployed. The chevy emblem on the steering wheel embedded itself into my right hand nearly breaking my thumb. After coming to stop, I noticed the seat belt pretensioners on both sides had also been deployed and they are now locked up tight. The truck did not hit anything. I say it like this because the chevrolet dealership would not believe me and told me it was impossible and that it was my fault. I want my truck fixed because I no longer have any safety features. Chevy said they will fix it for $4,000.00. I say the control module went bad and it is their fault and it should be fixed for free.
