Last year I reported airbag light coming on while driving, and I read on gmc site as to what could happen if an accident should happen, they did inform me that once they received parts at the dealership they would contact me to repair, now they indicate they are not sure about the problem. My concern is someone in my car and an accident and the injury this could cause someone. I have called several times and I feel that I am being mislead on fixing the problem.

Takata recall. Recall issued in 2016 but as of 12/04/2017 there is still not a solution. I have an airbag indicator light currently on and am afraid that airbag will not inflate when needed or might inflate when not needed. Also, in unrelated issue the entire display on the dash has stopped working as well. I have searched web and I do see indications that there are active recalls for electrical however my dealer says there are not any electrical recalls for my vehicle.

Takata recall gm sent out the recall and now my SUV is throwing a error code of service airbag with the airbag light on. They don't want to take responsibility for this code. They want us to spend our money to find out that it's their recall issue. In the recall it states "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." this is a huge concern to my family of 5. Gm needs to take complete responsibility for their recall and get it fixed! We asked the gm representative if we get into an accident and the airbag fails to work properly then will gm be responsible? He beat around the bush about it. He then said well try not to get into an accident right now. That is admitting to me that it's unsafe. He wouldn't answer any of our questions. He couldn't tell us when our vehicle could be fixed. He just kept telling us that we needed to spend our money and take it to our dealer to have it checked. We know what the problem is. It sounds to me like they're just trying to take our money.
