Takata recall: my pontiac vibe is part of the airbag recall through gm. My first appointment with king o'rourke in smithtown, ny, was july 28, 2016. After waiting 90 minutes, I was told they did not have the right part. I do not know why they did not know this when they made the appointment or when I checked in (the king o'rourke check-in process can take up to 20 minutes). They said they would order the part and call me when it was available. They never called me. I called them in early november 2016 and they said they had the part and set up an appointment for nov. 30, 2016. I arrived at 7:45 a.m. And went through check-in and was told at 8:45 that they did not have the part. Again, I don't know why they would not know this when they made the appointment or when I first checked in. So the latet plan is they say they have to reorder the proper part and they will contact me when it arrives. I have not had any problems with my airbags. Just a big problem getting the recall completed with king o'rourke.

Takata recall - gm repeatedly failing to respond or commit to repair recalled vehicle. Received letter about recall 15815 last week. Representative at pontiac (ref #[xxx], 4/21/16) confirmed that the vehicle, which is my primary source of income (student and rideshare driver) is under recall and that no one should occupy passenger seats until repair is made. Manufacturer is unable to provide even an estimate of date for parts availability and currently has lowest completion of repairs according to the federal safety agency. I have contacted the dealer (chapman chevrolet, tempe, az) in person, was told by service consultant [xxx] to contact [xxx] parent for recall scheduling, but that she was out of the office at that time. I contacted [xxx] by phone and left messages which were not returned on two consecutive days. I went to dealership and made contact with her in person on 4/22/16. I was brought back to her office, where her coworkers were just browsing huffington post articles. She agreed dealership would call on monday 4/25/16 to provide an update after speaking with area gm rep "[xxx]" to see if a loaner or dealer purchase of the vehicle were possible. As of the end of work 4/25/16 [xxx] has again not returned the call. I attempted to contact her once again and left a message. I have lost confidence that gm is taking care of their consumers in this recall. While they stall and fail to provide timely repair or response, I am left with an unsafe car, no income, and no commitment that either will change. I am unwilling to sell the car to another private party who would be endangered by the unrepaired car. Please help - thank you!!
