MY RECALL LETTER IS DATE 2016 AND NOTHING HAS BEEN REPAIRED. WHY IS THE NHTSA TAKING SO LONG TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE WITH GM? MY NON GM AIRBAGS HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPLACED.

TAHOE MIDDLE SEAT BELT BUCKLES HAVE ALL COME APART. I CONTACTED LOCAL CHEVY DEALER AND THEY SAID IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVE UH NO SH*T?! ONCE AGAIN CRACKS ON DASHBOARD BY PASSENGER AIRBAGS AND ALL OVER RIDICULOUS! MIDDLE CONSOLE STARTED TO SMOKE ON 4/2018 AND I HAVE TO HAVE EVERYTHING DISCONNECTED. I CONTACTED DEALER AND THEY SAID TO FILE COMPLAINTS WITH Y'ALL.
