"TAKATA RECALL" SINCE I WAS INFORMED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM MAY 27 2016, I HAVE BEEN TO DEALERSHIP. STILL NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE EXCEPT GIVEN EXPLANATION PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. IS THIS RECALL FOR REAL OR IS GM GIVING PEOPLE THE RUN AROUND? THERE ARE CRACKS IN DASH. THERE IS ONE AT THE CORNER OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AND NOW THERE ARE TWO OVER THE STEERING WHEEL AND CLUSTER. HAVE BEEN TOLD CRACKS CAN NOT BE FIXED UNTIL THE AIR BAG PROBLEM IS FIXED. WHAT DO I DO? CAN NOT WIN.

1. MY TAKATA INFLATOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ON MY 2007 CHEVROLET SILVERADO AND, IS A RECALL ITEM, AND GENERAL MOTORS IS USING DELAYING TACTICS RATHER THAN REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE PART(S). THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. NOW MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND AFTER LOOKING AT THE RECALL LIST AND DESCRIPTION IT SAYS: SAFETY RISK: THE PROPELLANT IN SOME TYPES OF TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATORS CAN DEGRADE OVER TIME, ESPECIALLY AFTER LONG TERM EXPOSURE IN HOT AND HUMID REGIONS. IF THE PROPELLANT DEGRADES TO A CERTAIN LEVEL, THE INFLATORS MAY RUPTURE DURING DEPLOYMENT, CAUSING SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES. REMEDY: THE NECESSITY OF A REMEDY IS DEPENDENT UPON NHTSA'S DECISION ON GM'S PETITION FOR INCONSEQUENTIALITY. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE FOLLOWING THAT DECISION. IN THE MEANTIME, YOU CAN ALSO CHECK THE STATUS OF THIS RECALL AT MY.GM.COM/RECALLS. GM CONSIDERS YOUR VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE. RECALL STATUS: RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE .... 2. I'VE HAD A RECURRING ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT IS NOT DIAGNOSABLE AS IT IS A TOTAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE THAT IS NOT ABLE TO BE DETERMINED BY ON STAR AND WITHOUT POWER, NO DIAGNOSIS CAN BE MADE. THE COMPUTER DOESN'T KEEP A RECORD OF WHY THE FAILURE OCCURS, AND WE HAVE HAD MULTIPLE CABLES AND BATTERIES REPLACED IN AN ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THE UNKNOWN ISSUE. THIS VEHICLE WAS PRODUCED IN CANADA.

DRIVERS SEAT BELT LATCH BROKE. COULD NOT LATCH SEAT BELT BEFORE DRIVING. UPON INSPECTION, CAN SEE SOMETHING IN THE LATCH IS BROKEN, AS IT LOOKS DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER LATCHES. I CAN USUALLY GET IT TO LATCH BY PRESSING THE RELEASE BUTTON WHILE INSERTING THE TAB PORTION AND JIGGLING, ETC. THIS TAKES FROM A FEW SECONDS TO A FEW MINUTES, AND IS QUITE FRUSTRATING. ALSO, I AM UNSURE AS TO HOW SECURE THE LATCH MECHANISM IS NOW.
