2008 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V383000 (AIR BAGS) AND STATED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME TO SCHEDULE THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER (BRIDGEWATER CHEVROLET, 1548 US-22, BRIDGEWATER, NJ 08807, (732) 356-2460) DID NOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE FOR WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE SO THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN THE REMEDY AND REPAIR PARTS MAY BE SUPPLIED TO THE DEALER FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND COULD NOT PROVIDE AN ESTIMATED DATE FOR WHEN THE CONTACTS VEHICLE WOULD RECEIVE THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT WAS NOT EXPERIENCING A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

WE RECEIVED NOTICE IN JULY OF 2016 OF THE AIRBAGS BEING DEFECTIVE, AND THAT WE WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO REMEDY MY VEHICLE. HOWEVER, WE NEVER RECEIVED THAT NOTICE. IT OFFERED ME TO CHECK WITH MY LOCAL DEALER FOR UPDATES, AND TO CHECK THEIR WEBSITE. EVERY TIME I CHECKED THE WEBSITE, IT READ IT STILL READ REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE. IT STILL SAYS THAT TODAY. I ALSO TRIED CALLING MY LOCAL DEALER, LOU BACHRODT CHEVROLET BUICK MONTHS AGO. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION AND THEY (TAKATA) HAVE UNTIL AUGUST OR SEPTEMBER OF 2017 TO COME UP WITH AN ACTION PLAN OR A RESULT. TODAY I RECEIVED A NOTICE IN THE MAIL FROM TK HOLDINGS, THAT TAKATA HAS FILED CHAPTER 11. THE RESALE VALUE OF MY TRUCK IS HIGHLY DETERIORATED. HOW CAN I SELL IT TO SOMEONE KNOWING THE AIRBAGS ARE DEFECTIVE? THIS IS TERRIBLE AND I NEED THIS RESOLVED, AND WANT TO BE COMPENSATED FOR THE RISK I'VE CONTINUED TO PUT MYSELF AND MY FAMILY AT. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I HAVE CALLED EVERY 90 DAYS AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE AND THEY WOULD NOTIFY ME WHEN THEY WERE.

TAKATA RECALL. WHY IS GENERAL MOTORS NOT FIXING THIS PROBLEM. FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS THEY HAVE TOLD ME THEY ARE AWAITING PARTS. NOW, THEY ARE SAYING IT'S NOT A PROBLEM. HAVE THE ATTORNEYS DECIDED IT'S CHEAPER TO PAY WHAT MAY BE JUST A FEW CLAIMS RATHER THAN FIX THE PROBLEM ON ALL VEHICLES INVOLVED.

PLEASE ADVISE ME AS WHAT ACTION I CAN TAKE TO FILE A FORMAL COMPLAINT SHORT OF HAVING TO HIRE AN ATTORNEY.
