Takata recall: the gmc service manager repeatedly told me that a replacement air bag is not available yet. I would like the dangerous air bag(s) removed pending the replacement. I sent the follow letter to the gmc dealer: august 31, 2017 coleman gmc mr. [xxx], owner 100 renaissance blvd. Lawrenceville, nj 08648 re: takata air bag recall 2007 yukon-xl, nj license [xxx] VIN #[xxx]. Dear mr. Coleman, I was originally assured that my yukon-xl did not contain a takata air bag. A subsequent recall identified my vehicle as containing the defective air bag and I asked for it to be replaced. The service department representative told me that replacement air bags are not available and I would be contacted when it comes available. I have taken the vehicle back for service and again I am being told that the air bag is not available. I would like the air bag removed while we wait for a replacement. The idea of an exploding air bag spraying shrapnel in the vehicle cabin is incredibly disturbing. I understand that drivers have been blinded and killed by this shrapnel. Having no air bag is safer than sitting in front of a claymore mine! Please contact me at your earliest convenience to schedule removal and then eventual replacement of this airbag. Sincerely, [xxx] cc the federal safety agency information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

The dashes of all gm trucks and suvs are cracking, badly. They're designed poorly and crack right around the passenger airbag deployment section. In the event of air bag deployment, it will send jagged plastic shards towards the occupants. This is completely unsafe and a serious hazard but gm refuses to correct the issue even though it has been acknowledged, hence I am filing this complaint. Simply google gm cracked dash and enjoy all the posts and videos from frustrated americans. Please help. Thank you.
