TAKATA RECALL CHEV HAS NOT DEALT WITH THE REMEDY ON REPLACING AIR BAGS. FORD HAD A SETTLEMENT AND OTHER DEALERS HAVE DEALT WITH THE REPLACEMENTS. I WANT CHEV TO FIX MY VEHICLE NOW. ITS BEEN THREE YEARS OF WAITING!

EVERY TIME WE CONTACT A DEALER TO GET OUR AIRBAGS CHANGED OUT WE ARE TOLD THEY DON'T HAVE ANY TO CHANGE OUT SO NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO RECTIFY THE DEFECT AIRBAGS IN MY TRUCK.
