"takata recall" was notified may 2016 of a recall...........still nothing has been fixed. When I call they say that the parts are unavailable it is now may 2017. Gm has failed to remedy this safety recall in a timely manner.........I am not comfortable having a takata airbag in my vehicle and no one seems concerned about it!
This vehicle was purchased new in 2008 and with 40,000 miles the dash board has cracked in 3 different places, 1 crack is on the corner of the passenger air bag which could be a safety issue if the airbag deployed. This problem happened just sitting in my driveway.
The dashboard in my 2008 chevy silverado 1500 has a crack above the airbag and a crack above the instrument panel. I am concerned for my safety.

Takata arecall a few years ago after hearing about a major air bag defect involving several thousand vehicles & then sometime later we were informed that our 2008 chevrolet was one of the units covered by the defective & dangerous air bag. About a year ago we went to our local dealer here" bill buck chevrolet" in venice florida where we were told they didnt have the slightest idea when we could expect to get it repaired. Now the latest I have read is the older units that are in hot, humid, states like florida are the ones most apt to explode if I can get any information or should I start researching other vehicles.

Received a recall # 49151 letter in july 2016 stating that the passenger side airbag inflators are defective and that I would received a letter when parts were received. I never got a letter so I called chevrolet customer assistance # 1‑800‑222‑1020 on 8-22-2016 spoke with lisa and was told they have no parts and vehicle was safe to drive. If the vehicle was safe why did I received the recall.
