2008 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

TAKATA RECALL BEEN WAITING YEAR &HAFT FOR REPAIR DEALER SAID THEY ARE WAITING FOR PARTS TO COME IN FOR YEAR &HAFT. TAKING TO LONG

TAKADA RECALL CALLED CHEVY DEALER AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NO REMEDY AT THIS TIME.WHAT DO I DO NOW?

RECEIVED NOTIFICATION MY AUTO IS ON THE RECALL LIST. I CALLED A LOCAL DEALER AND WAS TOLD THEY ARE NOT MAKING THE REPAIRS/REPLACEMENT NEEDED FOR TAKATA AIRBAGS BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY INSTRUCTIONS OR PARTS FOR THE RECALL. PLEASE ADVISE!

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE SEVERAL YEARS AGO, BUT EACH TIME I ASKED I'M TOLD NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. WHY NOT? I'VE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE ONE OF THE AIRBAG SENSORS AT A COST OF JUST UNDER $500. NOW THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS ON AGAIN. SEEMS LIKE THEY SHOULD WARRANTY THIS. WHY SHOULD I REPAIR SOMETHING THAT CAN KILL IF IT'S WORKING?

MAY 27, 2016 TAKATA AIRBAG ISSUE WAS MADE KNOWN TO US. I'VE CONTACTED GM ABOUT THE ISSUE SEVERAL TIMES TO NO AVAIL. THEY SIMPLY RECOMMEND NO ONE SHOULD SIT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. INSANE. WE WENT THROUGH MASSIVE FLOODING IN OUR AREA AUGUST 29, 2017, HURRICANE HARVEY, IN PORT ARTHUR TX. HUMIDITY IS OF GRAVE CONCERN IN THIS AREA GIVEN THE AFFECT IT HAS ON AIRBAGS. WE NEED A SOLUTION IMMEDIATELY! THEY NEED TO MAKE REPAIRS TO THESE VEHICLES AT ONCE, WITHOUT DELAY. OTHERWISE, YOU ARE EQUALLY GUILTY OF MAIMING PEOPLE WHEN THESE AIRBAGS GO OFF, ESPECIALLY THOSE AFFECTED BY HURRICANE HARVEY WITH ALL THE MOISTURE VEHICLES ENCOUNTERED HERE MONTHS ON END. DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS SITUATION NOW! NO PROBLEM OF THIS MAGNITUDE SHOULD REMAIN IN LIMBO FOR THIS LENGTH OF TIME. DO YOUR JOB!!!! NOTHING HAS HAPPENED TO US OR OUR VEHICLE THUS FAR, BUT IT'S LIKE DRIVING WITH A TIME BOMB READY TO GO OFF ANY TIME NOW! DEMAND A SOLUTION TO THE AIRBAGS ON THESE VEHICLES ESPECIALLY THOSE IN PORT ARTHUR, TX GIVEN THE FLOODING WE ENCOUNTERED!
