Takata recall I have called ron carter autoland/gmc requesting the airbag component for replacement, but was told that there are no replacement parts available and have been none.

Takata corporation ('takata') has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2007-2011 cadillac escalade, escalade esv, escalade ext, chevrolet avalanche, silverado 1500, suburban, tahoe, gmc sierra 1500, yukon, yukon xl, and 2009-2011 chevrolet silverado 2500/3500 and gmc sierra 2500/3500 vehicles. This is based upon takata's decision that front passenger airbag inflators it supplied to gm are defective. Gm has submitted to the federal safety agency a petition for inconsequentiality and the federal safety agency has granted gm until august 2017 to complete its investigation and to submit all data supporting the petition. If the petition is denied, gm will conduct a recall of the airbag inflators covered by takata's defect information report. For more information visit www.regulations.gov and search for docket no. The federal safety agency-2016-0124. Safety risk: 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. Remedy: the necessity of a remedy is dependent upon the federal safety agency's decision on gm's petition for inconsequentiality. Additional information will be available following that decision.

Takat recall. Recalls started may 2016, called the dealer and have been advised they do not have replacements parts and have no eta on when they will get them and to keep driving the vehicle. It's been almost a year, parts should be available to retail consumers.
For the air bag, the light continually goes on and when I took it to dealer; they said it was fine, but when I took it later; dealer said that warranty had expired and it would cost me $800. I just left it alone. Light continually goes on and turns itself off. For the seat belt, back seat middle, the dealer repaired it twice, but once warranty expired than they wouldn't fix it anymore unless I paid. For the gas, I pump gas and it constant causes pump to pop and shut off. They had fixed the problem at dealer, but once warranty expired they stopped. I had to pay for all repairs.

Dashboard is cracked directly adjacent to the air bag, I am concerned that plastic pieces of dashboard will become dangerous flying objects in the event of an impact that deploys the airbag. I have been talking with gm and the local dealership for months now and they will not accept responsibility. This is a continuing safety issue experienced by gmc sierra owners
