Takata recall, gm still has no recall action on this they have no fix available for the replacement of these air bags. The gm recall number is 2049151. Gm is contesting this recall because they do not have enough evidence to justify the replacement of these defective airbags. I have not been involved in an accident with this vehicle I just want the airbags replaced as recommended by takata and in the federal safety agency recall number 16v381. Received a notice of recall from gm on may 27, 2016 advising me of the recall stating that gm considers the vehicle safe to drive and the status of the recall is "incomplete, remedy not yet available" gm is still protesting this recall and has not received a final ruling from the federal safety agency on its position that the gm vehicles are safe to drive. I believe that gm is stalling and should be required to replace these defective airbags.

On thursdsy, april 27, 2017, I parked my 2009 chevy silverado at home in my driveway after work and shut it off for the night. It was stationary at that point. I did not restart it or move it for the remainder of the day/evening. The next morning, the engine would not start. It sounded like it was going to start, but to no avail after several tries. I determined it was not getting fuel. I called a local auto repair tech who diagnosed it on site, to be a faulty chassis electronic control module, which sends fuel to the fuel pump. Upon researching the problem, I found a recall bulletin / product safety recall #14515b issued january 2015. It clearly states that the 2007-2013 chevrolet silverado (along with many other makes/models/years) may have a chassis electronic module could have internal contamination (water, build-up causing wire and bolt corrosion). I believe this to be the case for my vehicle. According to the bulletin, the unsafe factor is that the "vehicle could stall while in motion and increase the risk of a vehicle crash." www-odi.the federal safety agency.dot.gov/acms/cs/jaxrs/download/doc/ucm472842/rcrit-14v614-0055.pdf I am the third owner so I did not receive a recall notice directly. I purchased this vehicle may 24, 2016.
