TAKATA RECALL CALLED THE DEALER (AUTONATION/CORPUS CHRISTI) AFTER MAKING FIVE CALLS ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND LEAVING MESSAGES WITH NO CALL BACKS FINALLY SPOKE TO JACKIE WHO INFORMED ME THAT THERE IS NO PART AVAILABLE FROM GM AND COULD NOT PROVIDE ME ANY INFORMATION AS TO WHEN THE PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE JULY 2016 AND ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT THE DEALER ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION TO SCHEDULE THIS VEHICLE FOR REPAIRS, TODAY 11/7/2017 BEING THE MOST RECENT AND WAS TOLD THE RECALL WAS "OPEN" AND THE PARTS WEREN'T AVAILABLE. THIS TRUCK IS MY SON'S AND HE IS 3 1/2 HOURS AWAY AT COLLEGE. HE SPENDS HOURS DRIVING BACK AND FORTH HOME A FEW TIMES A MONTH. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE. NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET BUT I DON'T THINK THIS RECALL IS BEING TAKEN CARE OF IN A TIMELY MANNER.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN INQUIRING ABOUT THIS RECALL FOR OVER A YEAR. GM REFUSES TO FIX IT, SAYING THE 2008 SILVERADO WILL NOT HAVE THE EXPLODING AIRBAG ISSUE DUE TO THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE VEHICLE. IF THIS WERE TO BE TRUE, WHY IS THE RECALL CONTINUOUSLY LISTED? I HAVE MADE 6 INQUIRIES TO GM AND THEIR DEALERSHIPS WITH NO LUCK. THEY ARE VERY RUDE ABOUT IT AT THE DEALERSHIPS. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE IS USELESS. SO MUCH SO, WE BOUGHT OUR LAST NEW CAR FROM ANOTHER MANUFACTURER.

TAKATA RECALL. MY FIRST NOTICE CAME IN MARCH 2016. STILL NO DATE FOR REPAIR. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE FIXED IN A TIMELY MANNER. 19 MONTHS IS NOT A TIMELY MANNER.
