TAKATA RECALL. AIRBAGS ARE DEFECTIVE AND COULD CAUSE DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY IF DEPLOYED. GM HAS NOT ISSUED A REMEDY FOR THIS DEFECT AND DEALER WILL NOT REPLACE UNTIL FURTHER GUIDANCE IS RECEIVED FROM GM.

TAKATA INFLATORS: I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE 2 YEARS AGO AND GM IS STILL SAYING THEY DON'T HAVE A SOLUTION YET. MY QUESTION IS DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO BE INJURED OR KILLED BEFORE GM WILL REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE INFLATORS. IF THE AIR BAG INFLATORS INSTALLED ARE KNOWN TO BE DEFECTIVE, THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO REPLACE THEM.
