2008 VAN-CON CHEVY Complaints

TAKATA RECALL IT HAS NOT YET DONE ANYTHING BUT I AM JUST NOW FINDING OUT TO MY KNOWLEDGE MY VEHICLE HAS A TAKATA AIRBAG AND THE REVIEWS HAVE NOT BEEN POSITIVE I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE ANYWHERE WITH MY 8 MONTH OLD ALSO BEING PREGNANT WITH THE SECOND ONE ANYWHERE BECAUSE OF THIS RECALL. I NEED THIS FIXED AND OR TAKEN CARE OF ASAP.

I STILL HAVE A 2008 CHEVY SILVERADO AND ITS BEEN OVER A YEAR AND THE RECALL HASN'T BEEN FIXED. WHY ISN'T NO ONE DOING ANYTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. HOW I AM SUPPOSE TO FEE CONFIDENT DRIVING MY TRUCK ESPECIALLY WITH THE 9 YEAR SON IN IT. I HAVE BEEN A LIFELONG GM CUSTOMER, AND WILL HATE TO BE FORCED TO GO FOREIGN AS MANY DO.TAKATA HAS NOT OWNED UP TO RESPONSIBILITY AND THERE HAS BEEN NO RESOLUTION OR COMPENSATION. WHEN CAN SOMEONE FIX THIS ISSUE????????????

I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT AT AROUND 40MPH ON A FOUR LANE ROAD WHEN I HEARD A LOUD BANG SIMILAR TO A GUN SHOT. SMOKE FILLED THE CABIN AND THE SEAT BELT LOCKED LOCKED UP CAUSING A CUT TO MY NECK. THE PASSENGERS SEAT BELT ALSO LOCKED UP. FORTUNATELY, MY WIFE WAS SITTING IN THE MIDDLE AND OUR TWO AND FOUR YEAR OLD DAUGHTERS WERE IN THE BACK IN THEIR CAR SEATS. I DID NOT HIT ANYTHING WITH THE TRUCK AND WE DID NOT GO OVER A SPEED BUMP OR HIT A POT HOLE. I DID NOT SLAM THE BRAKES. IT WAS A CLEAR, SUNNY DAY AND THE SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER BASICALLY EXPLODED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. TRUCK IS AT BEATY CHEVROLET NOW WHERE THEY'RE SAYING THAT ITS A 2008 AND OUT OF WARRANTY AND ALMOST $1900 TO REPAIR! SHOULDN'T THE MANUFACTURER BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING DEFECTIVE SAFETY EQUIPMENT THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR CAUSE THE DRIVER TO GET IN ACCIDENTS? THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO CALL THE MANUFACTURER ON MONDAY TO SEE IF THEY WOULD COVER THE REPAIR.

AIR BAGS PARTIALLY WENT OF WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH IN A COFFEE DRIVE THROUGH WITHOUT CRASHING. EXPLOSIVE WIND AND SMALL OBJECT HIT MY CHEST KNOCKING WIND OUT AND WHIPLASH. I MIGHT BE PREGNANT WITH STOMACH AND NECK PAIN.

THE DASH BORD CRACKED FROM WINDOW ALL THE WAY ACROSS. DONT KNOW HOW IT HAPPEN WENT TO WORK ONE MORNING AND NOTICE IT CRACKED ALL THE WAY ACROSS. IT HAS HAD A SMALL CRACK ALONG THE AIRBAG ON PASSAGER SIDE FOR A WHILE.

I WAS ON UNION STREET IN HOBART, IN AND MY INFO STARTED BLINKING AND MY ANTI THEFT DETERRENT ALARM LIGHT STAYED ON.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY REPAIRS DONE NOR NOTIFIED FOR ANY REPAIRS ON AIR BAG TO DATE.

TAKATA RECALL - 7/2016 RECEIVED SAFETY RECALL LETTER. STILL NO DATE WHEN PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. UNABLE TO USE VEHICLE AT TIMES AS IT MAY NOT BE SAFE TO SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. NEED TO KNOW WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE AND WHY ITS TAKING SO LONG.

TAKATA RECALL, I RECEIVED A NOTICE OF THE RECALL IN JULY 2015, IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR AND STILL NO UPDATE, TRIED TO CALL THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE BUT THEY HAVE NOT RETURNED MY PHONE CALL. HOW MUCH LONGER IS THIS GOING TO TAKE? A YEAR SEEMS TO BE A LITTLE EXCESSIVE.

DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR THE LAST 6 YEARS. FRONT DASH BOARD PLASTIC GOT CRACKED IN TWO PLACES IN FRONT OF PASSENGER SIDE. MANY PICKUPS THAT I HAVE SEEN HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM BUT NO RECALL HAS COME OUT, THIS IS CLEARLY AN MATERIAL DESIGN FLAW.
