I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE JULY 2016. THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY FOR THIS RECALL. I JUST RECEIVED ANOTHER NOTICE THAT TAKATA HAS FILED BANKRUPTCY AND I NEED TO TAKE CARE OF THIS IMMEDIATELY BUT CHEVY STILL WILL NOT ACT ON IT UNTIL A REMEDY IS AVAILABLE.
TAKATA RECALL - THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF
TAKATA RECALL THIS FROM SAFERCAR.GOV: IF THE MANUFACTURER HAS FAILED OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY RECALL FOR YOUR VEHICLE IN A TIMELY MANNER, PLEASE CONTACT THE NHTSA VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT: 1-888-327-4236 OR TTY: 1-800-424-9153 OR FILE AN ONLINE COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA. I WOULD LIKE TO COMPLAIN THAT THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. THERE HAS TO BE SOME SOLUTION THAT WILL HELP THE OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES INSTEAD OF, LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES. I WOULD RATHER HAVE NO AIRBAG THAN ONE WITH THE PROBABLY OF KILLING THE PEOPLE IN THE FRONT SEATS, ACCORDING TO THE WARNINGS PUT OUT ON THESE AIRBAGS. DEACTIVATION OF THE AIRBAG WOULD BE A BETTER SOLUTION THAN DOING NOTHING. WHERE IS THE COMMON SENSE IN THIS SITUATION? IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU LOVE WERE BEHIND THE WHEEL OF ONE OF THESE VEHICLES, WOULDN'T YOU WANT SOMEONE TO DO SOMETHING INSTEAD OF TAKING THE CHANCE OF GETTING MURDERED BY SOMETHING THAT IS SUPPOSED TO HELP SAVE YOUR LIFE?

AFTER TALKING TO GM I AM WORRIED ABOUT DRIVING MY TRUCK. THEY TOLD ME THAT I HAVE BAD AIR BAGS BUT THEY ARE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT FIXING IT. THIS IS WRONG TO LET THIS TO GO ON AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS UNSAFE PROBLEM. I AM GOING TO HAVE MY AIR BAGS UNHOOKED SO I FEEL DRIVING MY TRUCK AGAIN I DO NOT WANT TO GET HURT MY AN UNSAFE AIRBAG. I AM MAD THAT THE NSTSA IS NOT MAKING MY TRUCK TO BE FIXED BY GM. GM PUT THE AIRBAGS IN THEY SHOULD TAKE THEM OUT AND REPLACE THEM WITH SAFE AIRBAGS. SOMETHING HAS TO DONE TO MAKE THIS UNSAFE AIRBAG ADDRESS AND STOP PEOPLE FROM GETTING HURT. I AM VERY UPSET ABOUT THIS. I GOT A CARD IN THE MAIL ABOUT MY UNSAFE AIRBAGS IN MY TRUCK BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. MAKE GM FIX THIS UNSAFE PROBLEM

TAKATA RECALL. SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER THE RECALL NOTICE FOR MY VEHICLE, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING AND I WAS NOTIFIED TO IMMEDIATELY BRING MY VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE. UPON DOING SO, THE SERVICE ADVISOR CHARGED ME A DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND NOTIFIED ME THAT THE AIRBAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. EVEN CONSIDERING THE RECALL THAT WAS IN PLACE THERE WAS NO PROVISION FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO CORRECT THE ISSUE WITHOUT FULL PAYMENT OF APPROXIMATELY $1200.00. I DECLINED TO HAVE THE REPAIRS MADE AND THE ITEM IS STILL DEFECTIVE TO DATE, BUT I STILL WAS OBLIGATED TO PAY THE DIAGNOSTIC FEES REGARDLESS OF THE OUTCOME.
MY DASHBOARD IS CRACKING ON BOTH SIDES. THE ONE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS RIGHT AT THE AIR BAG. I WAS CLEANING THE INSIDE OF MY TRUCK WHEN I NOTICED IT.
I WAS OVER LOOKING MY TRUCK CHECKING THE BELTS, HOSES AND FLUIDS. I FOUND A BROKEN EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLT ON THE BACK DRIVER SIDE. I TRIED CALLING THE DEALERSHIP I LEFT A VOICEMAIL BUT NO CALL BACK AS OF YET. I AM FINDING OUT THAT GM WILL NOT RECALL THE COMMON BREAKING PROBLEM WITH THESE BOLTS. THESE BOLTS THAT ARE BREAKING ARE CAUSING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON AND ALSO COULD CAUSE A FIRE. THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHER THINGS I AM FINDING OUT THAT ARE HAPPENING TO VEHICLES/ENGINES DUE TO THESE BOLTS BREAKING. I WAS TOLD TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH YOU TO HELP GET THE PROBLEM FIXED. I HOPE TO HEAR BACK FORM YOU IN SOME WAY.

PAINT AROUND 3RD BRAKE LT. ON BACK OF CAB IS BUBBLING & STARTING TO CORRODE. THIS IS THE ONLY SPOT ON THE ENTIRE TRUCK WHERE THIS IS HAPPENING, IT IS PLAIN TO SEE THAT IT IS BEING CAUSED BY A DEFECT IN THE SEAL BETWEEN THE BRAKE LT. & THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. I AM NOT SURE WHEN THIS STARTED TO ERODE, BUT IN FEB. 2017 IS WHEN I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE IS WHEN I NOTICED HOW BAD THE PAINT WAS BUBBLING AROUND THE BRAKE LT.. FROM THE LOOKS OF THE DAMAGE & FROM WHAT THE BODY SHOP REPAIR PERSON STATED, THIS HAS BEEN ERODING FOR A MONTHS.
THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING DIRECTLY ABOVE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AND TRAVELING TOWARDS THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND IS PROTECTED FROM HEAT BOTH AT HOME, AT WORK, AND WITH A VISOR. I ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT GM, THEY ARE NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS.
THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER ON THE VEHICLE LEAKS BRAKE FLUID PAST THE REAR SEAL INTO THE VACUUM POWER BRAKE BOOSTER. THE FLUID WILL CAUSE THE DIAPHRAGM IN THE BOOSTER TO FAIL. THE ONLY WAY TO CHECK FOR A LEAK IS TO REMOVE THE VACUUM HOSE AND SEE IF IT IS WET OR TO CONTINUE TO ADD BRAKE FLUID UNTIL THE BOOSTER IS FULL OF FLUID AT WHICH A LEAK WILL BECOME VISIBLE.
MY 2010 SILVERADO 1500 DASH BOARD HAS CRACKED IN TWO LOCATIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY PARKED AT WORK. SITING OUTSIDE IN 73 DEGREE WEATHER. CAR WAS COOL ON INTERIOR AND A/C HAD BEEN USED PRIOR TO PARKING. GOT IN THE TRUCK. STARTED IT UP AND HEARD A SNAP AND THERE WAS THE CRACK.
I'M WRITING ABOUT MY DASHBOARD CRACKING ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. I HAVE A 2010 CHEVY CREW CAB AND I'M ON MY 3RD DASHBOARD FOR THIS TRUCK. I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND ONLY HAVE 50,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK THAT IS IN LIKE NEW CONDITION. THIS IS DEFINITELY AND MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THIS DESIGN OF DASH AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. IMMEDIATELY. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO CHANGE OUT THE DASH AGAIN THIS WEEK BUT IT IS GOING TO COST ME HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR SOMETHING I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR. WHAT IS MY NEXT STEP FROM HERE?
5.3L ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION. ENGINE CONSUMES 3 TO 4 QTS OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES AND FOULS #7 SPARK PLUG CAUSING EXTREME LOSS OF POWER. OIL CONSUMPTION IS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. DEALER CLAIMS IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN WARRANTY EXTENSION.
I HAVE NOT GOTTEN THE RECALL ON THE AIRBAG FIXED AS OF THIS DATE. DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO FIX FOR IT. AS FOR THE STABILITY CONTROL AND TRACTION CONTROL, I WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK ON A LOCAL STREET WHEN THE REAR WHEELS LOCKED UP. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY DOING ABOUT 30 WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FIGURING IT WAS A RECALL SEEING AS I FEEL IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I WAS CHARGED $654.00 TO REPAIR IT. I AM THANKFUL I WAS ON A LOCAL STREET, I CAN ONLY IMAGING WHAT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED IF I HAD BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE DOING 70. I SEE WHERE MANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM AND I FEEL I WAS CHARGED WHEN THIS IS A SAFTY ISSUE THE CHEVROLET SHOULD REPAIR AT THEIR EXPENSE.

THE DASH CRACKED IN MULTIPLE AREAS AFTER ONLY 3 YEARS. THE CRACKS ARE LOCATED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH AROUND THE AIRBAG HOUSING. IT STARTED WITH THE FRONT LEFT CORNER OF THE AIRBAG THEN LATER WITH THE RIGHT SIDE. THE CRACKS ARE SIGNIFICANT AND PIECES OF THE DASH ARE PROTRUDING UP. I HAVE CONTACTED GM AND THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE DASH SAYING IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I STRONGLY DISAGREE. IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS FRAGMENTS FROM THE DASH COULD BECOME PROJECTILES AND CAUSE SEVERE INJURY.
THE PLASTIC DASH PANEL HAS DEVELOPED CRACKS OVER TIME BUT RECENTLY THE CRACKS HAVE STARTED TO DEVELOP AROUND THE PASSENGERS SIDE FRONT AIR BAG. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE CONTINUED CRACKING AND SUBSEQUENT UNEVEN NATURE OF THE AIR BAG SURROUND COULD CAUSE ISSUES WITH AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT AND OR THAT THE SHARP EDGES OF THE PLASTIC COULD PUNCTURE OR CUT THE AIR BAG ITSELF CAUSING THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGER TO BE COMPROMISED.
BOUGHT THE TRUCK IN APRIL, 2016 AND NOW HAVE A CONSTANT KNOCK FROM ENGINE. I WAS TOLD IT IS PROBABLY THE LIFTERS. I DID RESEARCH TO FIND MANY OTHERS HAVING ISSUES WITH LIFTERS ON VEHICLES THAT HAVE THE AFM/DOD WHICH CONTROLS FUEL AND CYLINDER USE WHEN AT STEADY HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I TRAVEL BY HIGHWAY TO AND FROM WORK. I STILL OWE $17,000 ON THIS TRUCK. IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
