TAKATA RECALL. GM SAYS ON NHTSA WEB SITE THAT THEY CONSIDER MY TRUCK SAFE TO DRIVE ALL THEY DID WAS TURN THE AIR BAG OFF. WHICH MAKES A KEY SAFETY COMPONENT INOPERABLE THIS IS NOT EXCEPTABLE. AND THEY STILL CAN'T REPLACE THE INFLAITER, I AM FORCED TO DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE THIS IS ALSO UNEXCEPTABLE. MY QUESTION IS - IS THIS AN EXCEPTABLE REMEDY EVEN IF TEMPORARY TO THE NHTSA. I FEEL AS THOUGH GM HAS REPLACED ONE POTENTIAL TRAGEDY WITH ANOTHER. I AM CONSIDERING CONTACTING A LAWYER. MY VEHICLE IS NOT ALWAYS STATIONARY

CRACKING DASH IN CORNERS OF AIRBAG COMPARTMENT AND ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THE DASH WAS REPLACED BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM ONCE AND NOW THE REPLACEMENT DASH HAS CRACKED IN THE SAME SPOTS. I HAVE CONCERNS OF AIRBAG SAFETY.

MY DASHBOARD HAS MULTIPLE CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD, AND MY VEHICLE STAYS IN A GARAGE WITH THE WINDOWS CRACKED TO PREVENT OVERHEATING. I HAVE HAD THESE CRACKS SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND GM WILL NOT REPLACE IT. IF I WANT IT FIXED I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET.
