TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS) FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG INFLATOR. THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE PLASTIC DASH PANEL HAS DEVELOPED CRACKS OVER TIME BUT RECENTLY THE CRACKS HAVE STARTED TO DEVELOP AROUND THE PASSENGERS SIDE FRONT AIR BAG. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE CONTINUED CRACKING AND SUBSEQUENT UNEVEN NATURE OF THE AIR BAG SURROUND COULD CAUSE ISSUES WITH AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT AND OR THAT THE SHARP EDGES OF THE PLASTIC COULD PUNCTURE OR CUT THE AIR BAG ITSELF CAUSING THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGER TO BE COMPROMISED.

THE DASH CRACKED IN MULTIPLE AREAS AFTER ONLY 3 YEARS. THE CRACKS ARE LOCATED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH AROUND THE AIRBAG HOUSING. IT STARTED WITH THE FRONT LEFT CORNER OF THE AIRBAG THEN LATER WITH THE RIGHT SIDE. THE CRACKS ARE SIGNIFICANT AND PIECES OF THE DASH ARE PROTRUDING UP. I HAVE CONTACTED GM AND THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE DASH SAYING IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I STRONGLY DISAGREE. IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS FRAGMENTS FROM THE DASH COULD BECOME PROJECTILES AND CAUSE SEVERE INJURY.

BOUGHT THE TRUCK IN APRIL, 2016 AND NOW HAVE A CONSTANT KNOCK FROM ENGINE. I WAS TOLD IT IS PROBABLY THE LIFTERS. I DID RESEARCH TO FIND MANY OTHERS HAVING ISSUES WITH LIFTERS ON VEHICLES THAT HAVE THE AFM/DOD WHICH CONTROLS FUEL AND CYLINDER USE WHEN AT STEADY HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I TRAVEL BY HIGHWAY TO AND FROM WORK. I STILL OWE $17,000 ON THIS TRUCK. IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION.
