TAKATA RECALL- I HAVE WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE TRUCK AND THEY WON'T HELP ME IN RESOLVING THIS SAFETY ISSUE. MCKENZIE MOTORS 6500 CAROLINE ST.MILTON FL 32570 850-665-2045. I LIVE IN FLORIDA WHERE IT IS WARM YEAR ROUND AND MY WHOLE DASHBOARD IS FALLING IN. I SAVED FOR EVER AND PAID FOR THIS TRUCK IN CASH. I'M THE SAFETY DIRECTOR AT NAS WHITING FIELD AND THIS IS A FATALITY WAITING TO HAPPEN. PLEASE ADVISE.

CRACKED DASHBOARD - DASHBOARD IS DETERIORATING. NUMEROUS CRACKS. VEHICLE IS PARKED IN THE SHADE 90% OF THE TIME AND ONLY HAS 23,000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT. THERE IS A DASHBOARD CRACK NEXT TO THE AIRBAG ON THE DASHBOARD. MY CONCERN IS WITH THE TAKATA INFLATORS AND POTENTIAL SHRAPNEL PRODUCED FROM THE ROTTING DASHBOARD BECOMING AIRBORNE DURING AN ACCIDENT. THERE IS A WEBSITE THAT SHOWS THE MAJORITY OF THESE GM DASHBOARDS ARE DEFECTIVE AND FALLING APART BEYOND COSMETIC APPEARANCE. WHAT KIND OF SAFETY TESTING HAS BEEN DONE IN RELATION TO CRACKED DASHBOARDS CAUSING INJURIES? THERE SHOULD BE A SOLUTION TO THE TAKATA INFLATOR ISSUE AND A RECALL ON GM CRACKED PLASTIC DASHBOARDS. IT IS PAST AUGUST OF 2017 AND I HAVE HEARD NOTHING REGARDING THE AIRBAG ISSUE SOLUTION. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

INSTRUMENT PANEL HAS CRACK (BROKEN) CONNECTING THE DEFROST/VALENCE PANEL AND AIRBAG DOOR. CONCERN INVOLVES SHARDS OF PLASTIC/PROJECTILES IN THE EVENT OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

TAKATA RECALL: RECEICED RECALL NOTICE RE AIRBAGS 8/9/16. DEALERSHIP SAYS NO REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE AVAIL. RECEIVED ANOTHER NOTICE 11/3/17 FROM TK HOLDINGS THAT TAKATA IS GOING BANKRUPT AND TO CONTACT THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP TO SCHEDULE FREE REPAIR. WENT TO DEALERSHIP 11/6/17...AGAIN TOLD REPAIR INCOMPLETE, REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE. THIS TRUCK IS ALMOST 8 YEARS OLD, HAS DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS AND NO REMEDY IS AVAILABLE.!!!

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER AUTONATION CHEVROLET/BUICK OF LAUREL MARYLAND WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. (VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE).

TAKATA RECALL. CONTACTED DEALER IN 2016 REGARDING AIRBAG REPLACEMENT AND TOLD NONE AVAILABLE AT THE TIME. NEVER RECEIVED ANY FURTHER WORD FROM ANY ONE.

TAKATA RECALL I SEE MY TRUCK HAS A SAFETY RECALL, BUT THERE IS NO RESOLUTION. THIS DOES NOT MAKE ME FEEL LIKE IT IS VERY SAFE. PLEASE MAKE THIS COMPANY FIX THE RECALLED AIR BAGS. NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET, WHY DO I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MYSELF OR A FAMILY MEMBER IS HURT OR KILLED TO FIX A KNOWN ISSUE?

TAKATA RECALL GM HAS DONE NOTHING TO ALLEVIATE THIS PROBLEM. AT LEAST 10 PEOPLE HAVE BEEN KILLED BY THESE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS AND THOUSANDS MORE HAVE BEEN INJURED. IT IS PAST TIME FOR THE NHTSA TO GET INTO ACTION AND FORCE GM TO REPAIR THESE DEFECTS.
