Takata recall I received a recall notice july 2015 saying parts were not currently available and I would be notified when they become available. I have not heard anything since. I do not think it should take more than 2 years to get this problem corrected. Today I received a notice that takata is filing for chapter 11 bankruptcy, so what are our chances to get this problem corrected? I am quite disturbed that gm would let a problem like this to continue this long. I have been a faithful gm customer ever since I purchased a 1951 chevy back in 1958. Thank you in advance for your consideration in this safety issue. There has been no accident with this vehicle!!

Cracked dashboard. The dashboard on my 2008 sierra 2500 has three extremely large cracks, one of which ties into the airbag. All of the cracks appeared spontaneously. In the event of a collision, these dashboard parts would become the equivalent of shards of glass flying around in the cab of my pick up. Gmc is refusing to acknowledge that this is a widespread safety problem and wants to charge me $1200 to replace the dash with another one that is is known to do the exact same thing. There is no resolution to the problem.

Takata recall??? Recall came out may 28 2015. Airbag defect can be very serious. Dealer in september 2016 says there is no resolution for recall. They do not have any airbags? How does one get replaced once deployed if none exist? If a replacement does exist then there is no excuse for not replacing them in a recall that is over a year old. Recall status: recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available we need to get gmc on the ball with a possible defect causing possible injury. This recall is taking too long to complete. That is my complaint.

Takata recall - we were told yesterday that a local dealership would not take our truck on trade because of the outstanding recall that has no remedy available. How do we have to wait for this remedy?

Takata recall. It has been since may 2015 that I received a recall notice and to this day there is no remedy. This is my daughter truck and I would like it fixed. It is disappointing to see that it takes this long to find a solution.

Takata recall. My truck has been on the recall list for over 1 year now, still with no remedy to fix it. The idea that my passenger air bag can deploy and injure or kill my wife or my child makes me very uneasy. Gmc will not offer a loaner vehicle until it is fixed and I need to drive it for work. I limit my vacations with my family in the truck due to the possibility of injury. Not only that but I can't even sale my vehicle having this issue, and it hurts my trade in value because there is no remedy and no other dealer can resale with an open recall. I feel there needs to be more done to enforce the automakers to help the consumers and customers out. The automakers chose takata and should be held responsible for ensuring all customers on the road are safe. When I spoke to gmc about this they basically told me tough luck and deal with it until enough vehicles are fixed that my truck makes the list.

I got a recall notice july 2015-it is now almost may 2016! I went back to the dealership yesterday and was told no future dates to get this resolved- are you serious? Its caused deaths! I am afraid to drive my truck since I got the recall, this is unacceptable!!

Takata recall- the federal safety agency recall #15v324, manufacturer recall #n150438: this recall was brought to my attention in may 2015 and I still haven't heard anything further on rectifying the recalled part. Since this could potentially cause serious bodily harm to me or my family, it needs to be resolved.

The airbag light came on a little bit ago but I haven't had the time to get it checked do to my crazy schedule. Yesterday while my truck was sittng in the parking lot at work the airbag deployed. The truck was not running and the keys were not or near the truck. There is no damage or marks of any kind to the front of the truck showing any sign of impact to trigger the airbag to deploy. I called and spoke to gm and the response was pretty much that it is out of warranty. The truck is now sitting at a local dealer and the service manager spoke with gm also and said they are going to look into it but sounded like they didn't want to cover it either. This is a piece of safety equipment that failed it should not expire with the warranty!!!

Cracks on top of dash as in thousands of others.

Faulty materials which can cause death or serious injury.
