I own a 07 chevy tahoe lt. I received notice in 2016 about the takata airbag recall. It is now 2020! I have been to my chevy dealer over and over to have this taken care of. Response is "sorry, we can't do anything about it because no one knows who is going to pay for it." I am sick of this run around and tired of the excuses! You have no problem charging consumers for vehicles that most times cost the same as a small home! However, when it comes to human lives you are willing to gamble with time no matter what the cost, even if it means loss of life! We did not build the cars! Figure it out! So put on your big boy pants and solve the problem you all created! I want the bag replaced sooner than later and I want answers! Maybe what we need here is a class action lawsuit that involves both dealers and the takata air bag makers!

Wow. I am seeing all my same issues so thought I better enter my info as well. First the horn was all of a sudden blaring without anyone being in it in the middle of the night 2.5 years ago and now I do not have a horn, and none of the controls work on the steering wheel including the radio and cruise control (I question if the air bag is active on the driver side because of this). Then, the rear lift gate all of a sudden will not open (maybe last winter). 6 months ago, the indicators on the dash are out so I can't see my odometer or anything else you can access on the dash. Recently the passenger side window just randomly fell off the track. Recently, everything on the driver's side door does not work electrically: power door lock, and power window. And I find that gm will not address at a minimum the electrical issues? Not good.

My complaint is the the federal safety agency is not doing enough to force a remidy on the my vehicle's takata airbag problem. Thru many years of investigation and litigation with gm, it now more than evident that gm knows their airbags will fail. It isn't about if but when and it is the responsibility of the the federal safety agency to protect the public and consumer. If you want the public to think you are serving in their best interest, than resolve this whole takata airbag problem.
I am filing a complaint in regards to the chevy tahoe 2007 ltz model I own. The vehicle has been claimed by thousands of owners to have a factory bad dashboard. The dashboard is made with a very cheap and unsafe plastic. This plastic cracks due to natural causes from heat and cold. The plastic also after some time will crack and deteriorate again due to unsafe and poor plastic material. The remedy is to purchase a new dashboard panel and pay for the professional labor to install. This product cost should be shard at a bare minimum by gm due to good faith practices. I would like to have my claim reviewed and passed on to gm for the purpose of correcting this unsafe factory plastic dashboard. The airbags can create and cause a highly unsafe deployment by exploding cheap and sharp shard of plastic into the eyes and face of the passenger/driver. Gm is claiming to not have the legal requirement to repair or pay for this unsafe dashboard that should of been a recall.
Dash is completed cracked from side to side (driver to passenger) in multiple places. It continues to get worse and is now lifting the passenger side airbag up to the point where I am afraid to have a passenger ride in the front.

Gm recall # 49152 issued 5/27/2016 this has not been addressed in a timely manner.
I'm very concerned because I had my passenger airbag inspected because the light is on. I was told that the airbag needed to be repaired and that there is a very high chance that it would not function properly upon impact. I have to pay out my pocket or ride around with a non operational airbag because it's taking years for a resolution to be found.
This vehicle was originally subject to the federal safety agency 16v383, over four years ago. The legal maneuvering by gm has prolonged this issue, further aging my airbag inflator. I am concerned that this daily driven vehicle is not safe for my family. I

Emissions recall the propellant in some types of takata airbag inflators can degrade over time, especially after long term exposure in hot and humid regions. If the propellant degrades to a certain level, the inflators may rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries.
Safety airbag recall replacement still not completed and would like to know why this has not been resolved. Initial notification letter was received july 2016. I have checked websites for recall notification updates and no information on my vehicle. This has been almost 3 years since the court case decision. If I wanted to sell my vehicle, I can't because of the recall not being resolved!!

There is a recall on my car that is incomplete and remedy not yet available. Service airbag light is on
No fix for takata airbag?! My vehicle is worth half the value as a trade in because of these no fix recalls. Very unhappy!
The airbag recall on my tahoe still needs to be completed - I am told by my dealership that there are not parts available. When will this issue be resolved? I know other people in my area that have had theirs completed.

I think after 2016 when tekata declared the air bag to be unsafe they have had more than ample time to manufacture new ones.general motors needs to buy back the vehicles affected and all cost of maintenance of them and the and the purchase price of vehicle if they cant comply to the recall. After all the taxpayers money saved them from going under and now the goverment is allowing them to not conform to a safety recall that kills people.
