TAKATA RECALL - RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE. DEALERS CLAIM THIS VEHICLE PARTS HAVE NOT BEEN RELEASED FOR REPAIRS AT THIS TIME. CONTACTED SEVERAL GMC AND CHEVROLET DEALERS IN AREA. NO DAMAGE AT THIS TIME, BUT WHAT GOOD IS NOTIFYING ME OF BAD PARTS IF THERE IS NO INTENTION TO PERFORM REPAIRS.

TAKATA RECALL....SAYING NO PARTS AVAILABLE STILL??? HOW MANY WILL DIE BEFORE THEY ARE FIXED?? I DO NOT WANT TO DIE BECAUSE OF A FENDER BENDER!! DO SOMETHING...

"TAKATA RECALL". HAVE NOT BEEN TO OBTAIN REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS FOR MY TRUCK SINCE AUGUST 4, 2016 FROM ANY DEALERSHIPS IN MY AREA. YESTERDAY, I RECEIVED A CARD IN THE MAIL FROM TK HOLDINGS INC THAT TAKATA IS FILING CHAPTER 11. SINCE I AM UNABLE TO FIND ANY DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE MY AIRBAGS FOR OVER A YEAR NOW, I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT. I NEED TO KNOW WHERE AND WHOM CAN REPLACE THEM FOR ME. IN THE MEANTIME, WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENT WHILE I AM DRIVING THIS TRUCK?

TAKATA INFLATORS

"TAKATA RECALL" SO I GOT MY INITIAL NOTICE FOR THIS RECALL IN 2016. IT IS NOW OCTOBER 26TH 2017 AND STILL NO REPLACEMENT AIR BAG? JUST CALLED DEALERSHIP AND NO PARTS ON HAND NOR ANY IDEA WHEN THE AIR BAG WILL BE REPLACED?

TAKATA RECALL- I HAVE RECEIVED 2 NOTIFICATION SAYING THAT MY TRUCK IS EFFECTED BY THE RECALL AND THIS IS CONFIRMED WHEN I LOOK ON THE SITE WWW.AIRBAGRECALL.COM. WHEN I CALL THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR THEY ARE TELLING ME A SETTLEMENT ON THIS HAS NOT BEEN REACHED. THE LATEST NOTIFICATION I RECEIVED SAYS TAKATA IS FILING FOR BANKRUPTCY AND TO TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY. WHAT DO WE DO? UPDATED 12/12/17 *BF

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE CALLED RON CARTER AUTOLAND/GMC REQUESTING THE AIRBAG COMPONENT FOR REPLACEMENT, BUT WAS TOLD THAT THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE AND HAVE BEEN NONE. I THEN ASKED WHEN REPLACEMENTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO TIME TABLE FOR SUCH. I MENTIONED THAT THIS RECALL HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS WITH NOTHING BEING DONE AT THIS TIME. SHE TOLD ME SHE KNOWS AND UNDERSTANDS, BUT IT IS OUT OF HER HANDS.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE CALLED TWICE NOW TO GET MY AIRBAGS REPLACED AFTER RECEIVING A RECALL NOTIFYING ME TO HAVE THEM REPLACED AND HAVE BEEN TOLD TWICE THAT "GM HAS NOT COME UP WITH A SOLUTION AT THIS TIME". THE MOST RECENT ATTEMPT WAS 10/25/2017, TWO MONTHS PRIOR TO THE 12/27/17 5PM EST DEADLINE ON THE RECALL NOTICE.

TAKATA RECALL, I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL IN JULY OF 2016 RECALL NUMBER 49151. I KEEP ASKING MY LOCAL GMC DEALER LINUS BUICK GMC 1401 US HWY 1, VERO BEACH, FL 32960, 772-562-1700, AGAIN TODAY 10/23/2017, I VISITED THEIR SERVICE CENTER IN REFERENCE TO THIS RECALL. I WAS TOLD AGAIN THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE FOR MY VEHICLE. ON 10/20/2017 I RECEIVED A POSTCARD FROM TK HOLDINGS INC. P.O.BOX3004 MONROE, WI 53566, CHAPTER 11 CASE NO. 17-11375(BLS) I WANT MY VEHICLE REPAIRED.

TAKATA RECALL AFTER MANY CALLS TO MY DEALER I CAN NOT GET THIS AIR BAD CHANGED. IF IT'S BAD ENOUGH FOR A RECALL IT'S BAD ENOUGH TO CHANGE IT NOW. DOES IT HAVE TO EXPLOSED BE FOR ANYTHING HAPPENS. I HAVE CALLED CRITZ GMC MORE TIMES THAN I WANT TO ,IT'S BEEN GOING ON TWO YEARS SINCE I GOT THE NOTICE.

CRACKED DASH ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND BY THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. COULD CAUSE A SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED AND IS NOT AESTHETICALLY PLEASING CONSIDERING THE MONEY SPENT ON THE VEHICLE.

AT AROUND 100,000 MILES, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND INDICATE LOW OIL PRESSURE. CHANGING THE SENSOR OUT DID NOT EFFECT THE SITUATION. CHANGING THE OIL WOULD HELP BUT USUALLY ONLY FOR AROUND 3,500 MILES. THE ENGINE WAS LOSING OIL MORE THAN IT SHOULD. THEN AT AROUND 129,000 MILES, THE TRUCK STARTING SHAKING BECAUSE OF THE ENGINE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE A CYLINDER 7 MISFIRE. CHANGING THE COIL PACK, SPARK PLUG, AND SPARK PLUG WIRE DID NOTHING. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE WAS IRREPARABLE AND NEEDED REPLACING. UPON RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG 2008-2012 GM ENGINES WITH THE AFM SYSTEM. GM SHOULD ABSOLUTELY ISSUE A RECALL AND REPAIR THESE DEFECTIVE ENGINES OR OTHERWISE REIMBURSE THE OWNERS FOR THE REPAIRS.

ENTERING A HIGHWAY FROM A STOP, PROCEEDED TO ACCELERATE NORMALLY AND GRADUALLY. AFTER APPROX. SHIFT BETWEEN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR, THE GAS PEDAL WAS 'SUCKED' DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND REMAINED STUCK IN THAT POSITION. THE TRUCK LURCHED FORWARD AND BEHAVED LIKE IT WAS IN 'PASSING' GEAR. I TRIED TO TAP THE PEDAL TO RELEASE IT, BUT HAD NO EFFECT. I TURNED THE CRUISE CONTROL ON THEN OFF (DID NOT SET A SPEED) AND HAD NO EFFECT. I DEPRESSED THE BRAKES FAIRLY HARD WHICH SLOWED THE TRUCK DOWN, BUT THAT DID NOT RELEASE THE GAS PEDAL; AS SOON AS I LEFT OFF THE BRAKES, THE TRUCK AGAIN ACCELERATED AT FULL SPEED. ALTERNATING BETWEEN THE BRAKES AND TAPPING THE GAS PEDAL EVENTUALLY UNSTUCK THE GAS PEDAL.. NOTE THAT MY 'SPEED' WAS 0-50MPH WHEN I WAS ABLE TO UNSTUCK THE GAS PEDAL. I STATED THE INCIDENT OCCURRED AT (APPROX) 15MPH, THE SPEED WHEN SHIFTING BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

THE CONTACT CALLED A LOCAL DEALER (240 OLD GIBSON RD, HENDERSON, NV 89014) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY SHOW A WARNING SIGNAL FOR STABILTRACK TURNING OFF. THEN IT WILL CYCLE DOOR LOCKS UP AND DOWN, TURN ON THE AIR BAG LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, AND SOMETIMES REDUCE POWER TO 20 MPH. IT WILL ALSO KILL THE VEHICLE GAUGES. NUMEROUS TRIPS TO THE SHOP HAVE FAILED TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH OF STABILTRACK 2009 CHEVY/GMC WILL SHOW A TON OF HITS. DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERNS OF THESE CRITICAL SYSTEMS POWERING DOWN, THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS OCCURS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, WHICH MAKES IT MORE CONCERNING. THIS ISSUE STARTED WITH 66K MILES AND HAS PERSISTED. VEHICLE NOW HAS 96K.

DASHBOARD CRACKS, ON BOTH SIDES, ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. PASSENGERS SIDE CRACK IS EFFECTING HOW THE AIRBAG ACCESS COVER SNAPS INTO THE EXCISTING DASH RECESS. IT'S VERY BAD AND SAGGING DOWN EFFECTING HOW THE AIRBAG WOULD DEPLOY.

I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED FOR OUR SAFETY WOULD LIKE A RESOLUTION IMMEDIATLY PLEASE. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO WORRY AND WAIT THIS LONG TO SECURE THEY ARE SAFE IN THEIR VEHICLE. PLEASE HELP ME.

THE DASHBOARD CRACKED AT THE AIR BAG LOCATION. UPPER LEFT SIDE OF THE AIRBAG.

I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK BRAND NEW AND I CAN ALWAYS REMEMBER HEARING LOUD POPS COMING FROM THE DASH AREA ON A REGULAR BASIS. FOR SEVERAL THOUSAND MILES, THERE WAS NO VISUAL DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF THESE POPS. AROUND 60,000 MILES, HOWEVER, I BEGAN TO. NOTICE A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD NEAR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. AS I CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE TRUCK, I STILL HEARD THE OCCASIONAL POP AND ANOTHER CRACK SOON APPEARED ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. MORE MIKES DRIVEN, MORE POPS, AND MORE CRACKS. AS ANYONE WOULD DO, I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO THE LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP TO LET THEM KNOW THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE DASHBOARD. I ALWAYS USED A SUNSHADE WHEN PARKING OUTSIDE AND I KEPT IT PARKED IN THE GARAGE AT HOME. I ALSO KEEP MY TRUCK MAINTAINED VERY WELL, AS I CAN'T STAND A DIRTY AND NEGLECTED VEHICLE. SINCE IT HAD BEEN WELL-MAINTAINED AND WAS NEVER DRIVEN HARD, I EXPECTED GM TO SEE THE DAMAGE AND REPLACE IT UNDER WARRANTY. TO MY DISMAY, HOWEVER, THEY SAID THAT DUE TO THE AGE AND MILEAGE, THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. GM QUOTED ME AROUND $1200 TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD IF I WANTED TO GET RID OF THE CRACKS. ASTONISHED THAT GM WOULD NOT WARRANTY AN OBVIOUS FAULTY ITEM, I THEN SEARCHED ONLINE TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I QUICKLY FOUND OTHERS IN FORUMS, YOUTUBE VIDEOS, AND ON FACEBOOK THAT HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS MYSELF, WITH CRACKS IN THE EXACT SAME PLACES AND VERY SIMILAR RESPONSES FROM GM WHEN THEY TRIED TO HAVE THE ISSUE RESOLVED. I FOUND A GROUP ON FACEBO
