Takata recall. When I took it to the dealer they said the company that made the airbag filed for bankruptcy. I ask about replacing the airbag and she said they don't have any they would have to order more and they would let me know when more came in. That is the same thing they told me two years ago. I now have a airbag warning light and took it in to the dealer. She told me the same thing all over again.

My dashboard is cracked in two locations. The speaker in the dashboard has been serviced once by the dealership and is the only time the dashboard has been touched. Nothing has been done on my part to jeopardize the integrity of the dashboard. An internet search shows that this is a common problem in tahoe's. I have received no reasonable explanation for the damage along with no reasonable fix ($1,500!!!!). I have had my vehicle serviced religiously at the dealership and at no point was I made aware that this was or could become an issue. Now they tell me to file an insurance claim!?!? Date this occurred is unknown and has been estimated to best of my recollection.
A recall was issued and nothing has been done to correct our airbags yet. Are these recalled airbags safe?

Takata recall - general motors and their authorized dealers have refused to replace the faulty passenger air bag on our 2011 chevrolet tahoe even though its been recalled in 2016. The federal safety agency recall number is 16v381 and manufacturer recall number is 2049151 and even though their is a recall for our vehicle's air bag, all of the general motors dealers we contacted said nothing was being done to recall the faulty air bag and that the car was "safe to drive" which is unacceptable. I want to resolve my defective airbag problem with our vehicle but I am powerless to force general motors to correct the problem without expensive litigation. I refuse to accept the statement of "your vehicle is safe to drive" from general motors and their dealerships knowing that our car could be a potential death trap in the future.

Takata recall
There is an airbag recall that chevy is unwilling to fix. My families safety is at risk. Please do something about this!
Takata recall: I received a "important safety recall" notice from gm dated july 2016. Have not received a fix to the problem. Now I received 10/26/2017 a notice that the company takata is filling chapter 11 bankruptcy. I'm not pleased with gm leaving their customers hanging. I didn't buy the car from takata I bought it from gm. The dealer said there's nothing they can do until gm informs them on what to do.
My airbag light turned on about 9 months ago, I took it to the car dearship and they advise that the airbag infact have a recall, but they dont have the fix. What is this? How can I pay so much for a vehicle to drive unsave, that at any minute they could deflate, or if something happens I could be killed in an accident, because of their malfunction. I need a resolution on this matter asap. I have 2 kids and I drive 1 hour to work and back six days a week.
