TODAY NOV. 20, 2017 I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPLACE THE AIRBAG BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO PARTS,,COULD NOT TEL ME WHEN PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE, THE TRUCK IS PART OF THE AIRBAG RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL, IN MAY 2016 WE WERE INFORMED THAT OUR AIRBAGS WERE AFFECTED IN THE LARGE RECALL, AND THERE WAS NO REMEDY AVAILABLE YET. NOW ITS NOVEMBER 2017 AND WE RECEIVED NOTICE OF A LAW SUIT AGAINST TAKATA. I RECHECKED THE STATUS AT THE CHEVROLET WEBSITE AND IT IS STILL SAYING NO REMEDY AVAILABLE. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT COULD HAPPEN IF THIS VEHICLE IS IN AN ACCIDENT. WHEN WILL THERE BE A REMEDY AND WHO WOULD CONTACT ME?

TAKATA RECALL: RECEIVED "IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL" FROM GM IN JULY 2016. RECALL SAYS VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE, AND THAT I'LL BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. IN FALL OF 2016 I CHECKED AGAIN. PARTS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. GM WEBSITE SAYS FEB. 2017. CHECKED MARCH 9TH, 2017, WEB SITE SAYS CHECK BACK AFTER AUGUST 2017. CHECKED IN SEPTEMBER 2017. WEB SITE SAYS "INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE. RECENTLY RECEIVED NOTICE FROM TK HOLDING INC. ANNOUNCING BANKRUPTCY FILING OF TAKATA. CALLED THEIR NUMBER AND THEY SAID REPAIRS SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE. CALLED LOCAL DEALER: THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAYS PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. MY QUESTIONS: IS THIS VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE? IF I'M INJURED BY A DEFECTIVE AIR BAG, AND TAKATA HAS FILED BANKRUPTCY, IS GM GOING TO REPAIR MY TRUCK, AND/OR (GOD FORBID) I'M INJURED BY A DEFECTIVE AIR BAG, WHO WILL TAKE CARE OF MY MEDICAL? LASTLY, IF THESE AIR BAGS WERE DEFECTIVE ENOUGH TO ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL, DOES IT REALLY TAKE 15+ MONTHS TO GET PARTS AND EFFECT REPAIRS? OR IS THIS JUST SOME PLOY TO KEEP PUTTING IT OFF IN THE HOPES THE OWNER SELLS THE TRUCK OR IT GOES TO THE 'BONE YARD' BECAUSE IT'S WORN OUT? THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL LOCAL DEALER NOT ABLE TO REPAIR RECALLED AIRBAGS AS SAY THEY HAVE NO PARTS/ DID NOT GIVE AN ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION

"TAKATA RECALL" I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THE AIRBAG IN MY VEHICLE REPLACED SINCE THE RECALL NOTICE. HOWEVER, GM IS UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS. I HAVE READ DOCKET #NHTSA-2016-0124. I HAVE ALSO RECEIVED NOTIFICATION THAT TAKATA IS FILING FOR BANKRUPTCY. AS THE CONSUMER, I AM CAUGHT BETWEEN THESE LEGAL BATTLES. MEANWHILE, WE ARE UNABLE TO USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OF OUR VEHICLE FOR FEAR THE AIRBAG, WHICH THE GOVERNMENT REQUIRES US TO HAVE, WILL EXPLODE AND INJURE/KILL THE PASSENGER. I DEMAND SOMEONE REPLACE OR REMOVE THE TAKATA AIRBAG FROM MY VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY, SO I CAN REGAIN THE FULL USE OF MY VEHICLE. I WILL BE WRITING MY REPRESENTATIVE, SENATOR AND PRESIDENT REGARDING THIS ISSUE ALSO. THIS HAS GONE ON TOO LONG. THE CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES DESERVE RESOLUTION TO FAULTY, UNSAFE EQUIPMENT WITHOUT DELAY.

MAY 27,2016 THEIR CLAIM WAS NOT ANY IN STOCK, 2ND TIME NOV.14, 2017 AGAIN TOLD THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLACE MY AIRBAGS BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT GET THEM. HOW CAN I GET THESE DANGEROUS AIRBAGS REPLACED IF THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK WILL NOT REPLACE THEM?
