MY 2010 GMC SIERRA HAS 47,000 MILES ON IT, PRIMARILY SITS IN A TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED GARAGE, AND HAS 3 CRACKS IN THE DASH. TWO OF THE CRACKS HAPPNED WHILE SITTING STATIONARY IN THE GARAGE. TWO OF THE CRACKS ARE CONNECTED TO THE AIR BAG CREATING A HAZARD. GMC NOR THE DEALER WILL TAKE CARE OF THIS CONSIDERING A LOT OF COMPLAINTS BY OTHER OWNERS.
TAKATA RECALL HAVE KNOWN THAT OUR TRUCK IS "UNSAFE" FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS AND REPEATEDLY GET TOLD NO FIX IS AVAILABLE YET. LOCAL NEWS REPORTS EVEN HAVE STORIES ABOUT CONSUMERS NOT HEEDING RECALLS....WE WOULD LOVE TO GET THIS FIXED, BUT IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT NOTHING IS AVAILABLE 2 YEARS LATER

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. 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. DEALER HAS NO FIX
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.
WHEN TALKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP THEY STATED TAKATA HAS NOT COME UP WITH A RESOLUTION. SO THERE ARE NO AIRBAGS FOR THEM TO INSTALL. WE RECEIVED THE FIRST NOTICE BACK IN JULY 2016.
TAKATA RECALL IN JULY 2016, I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM GMC STATING THAT MY 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500 WAS BUILT WITH DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS. I HAVE CALLED CRABTREE BUICK GMC IN BRISTOL, VA., ONCE IN 2016 AND AGAIN IN SUMMER OF 2017 AND PARTS AREN'T AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME FOR INSTALLATION. I WOULD SERIOUSLY LIKE TO HAVE THE NEWER, SAFER AIRBAG INFLATORS INSTALLED ASAP!!

THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKING IN SEVERAL PLACES. NAMELY ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AND NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. THERE WAS NO STRESS OR IMPACTS TO THE DASH THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE CRACKING. THE MANNER AND LOCATIONS OF THE CRACKS COULD CAUSE THE DASH TO FRAGMENT AND CAUSE INJURIES TO OCCUPANTS IN THE EVENT OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.
TAKATA RECALL. WAS CHECKED BY DEALERSHIP OVER 6 MONTHS AGO AND EVERYDAY I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE WITH THESE AIR BAGS PUTS MY FAMILY AT RISK. I WAS TOLD THESE PARTS WERE ORDERED TO FIX MY VEHICLE BUT HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ELSE. I'M VERY WORRIED THAT AT ANY MOMENT THESE AIR BAGS COULD GO OFF.

MY DASH CRACKED OVERNIGHT WHILE SITTING IN A GARAGE. THE AIR TEMPS WERE IN THE 60'S SO COULD NOT BE BECAUSE OF HEAT OR COLD. THE REPAIR FOR THE CRACKED DASH WAS A LITTLE OVER $1200.

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.
