Takata recall airbag has not been replace
Takata air bags. I have been to the gmc dealership service department several times over the last 2-3 years since the recall was placed on my pickup for the takata air bags trying to get the air bags replaced or fixed. I have been told that gm has not come up with a solution or resolution for my vehicle to replace or repair the recalled takata air bags. This absurd that the recall has gone on this long and gm does not have a plan or a way to repair or replace the takata air bags in my 2008 gmc sierra 1500 pickup truck. Please look into this and force them to fix these air bags before more people are killed or severely injured.

Takata recall - received the federal safety agency recall #2049151 gm # 16v381, in 2016. I've called mckinney tx gmc buick numerous times over the past 2 years & have been told repeatedly that parts are not available. Today I called & spoke with a gm rep (ph# 866‑996‑9463). I was told that my particular VIN is not included in the recall & is safe to drive (he read me a long statement that I'm sure gm tells them to read). When I asked him why, when I enter my VIN in their website search, it says my vehicle is at risk, he couldn't answer. Since receiving the original notice over 2 years ago, I've purposely limited the miles driven on my 10-yr-old truck, because of their recall letter. Now, they're saying the letter was wrong, but they're not willing to send me something stating that. I have zero faith in what that gm rep told me, & I'm really hesitant to drive my vehicle on the highway. Please advise if my vehicle is, indeed safe to drive, ow whether I need to continue pursuing gm for repairs. If they can put safe airbags in a new truck, why can't they put one in mine?

An airbag warning light has come on and has been on for almost a year showing a faulty airbag and two calls with certified gmc dealership to remedy the airbag(s) to make for a safe ride have gone uncompleted staying no resolution has been made. This is an ongoing safety recall that should be remedied by gm for public safety and to this point has refused to do any repair/replacement. It is well documented that the airbag manufacturer is stating that there is a high risk of deterioration of the airbag and sudden deployment resulting in serious injury to death.
Wire broke going to the side impact sensor for the air bag causing it to be inoperable. Wire was in the loom for the drivers door wiring harness

Takata recall --received recall approx 2 years ago re airbags - keep calling dealer to get fixed and they are saying they dont have the equipment to replace yet. If it is that serious of a problem why arent they getting fixed timely?
