general problems of the 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche - part 2

Takata recall I have called the local Chevrolet dealerships numerous times inquiring about the recall and trying to get the problem serviced. They keep telling me that gm hasn't made a decision on what to do yet. This is unacceptable! it is very dangerous to have possible faulty air bags.

"takata recall" went to my dealer today about this and they said I have to wait until I am contacted by whom ever because takata went bankrupt and who knows if my air bags will be fixed. ## VIN failed ## chevy 2008 ##.

Dealer phillips chevy in frankfort IL refused to replace because no recall from gm has been issued. Also called gm corp. They also said no recall. They said that the front right passenger should sit in the back versus the front seat to eliminate any injury. This is ridiculous, why have the vechile.

Takata recall. Family safety concerns.

Takata recall after getting 2nd airbag recall notice saying to contact dealership to set up an appointment to have airbag replaced at no charge the dealership tells me that gm is not doing replacements. My 1st notice came in July 2016 stating telling of the recall but stating not to contact the dealership that I would hear from them later. My next notice came from takata today ( 10/24/2017 ) telling me to contact the dealership and set up the appointment to have the airbags replaced @ no charge to me but I was told gm has not given them approval for the replacement because they do not have replacements, so what do I do now.

"takata recall".

I am unable to get gm to replace my recalled takata airbags. Though I have not had an accident in which the airbags have deployed, I know the airbags have been recalled and it concerns me to drive the vehicle. Additionally, I am not sure that I can sell the vehicle knowing that the airbags are recalled.

Received notification of recall October 2017. Took vehicle to dealer and was advised no parts available I will be notified when parts are available. How long do I have to wait to fix this issue?.

Service airbag on dash driving and stationary.

Takata recall: I've called the madera, CA Chevrolet and went in person. They don't want to change the airbag on the truck. Not even make an appointment. The lady that helped us said we need to wait for another letter to come in before they change it.

'takata recall" no airbags available, live in a very humid area.

"takata recall" to date no remedy has been set in place and families are at risk. My dealership mentions they can do nothing and at this point and currently there's a crack around the passenger airbag area of my vehicle. I'm very concerned because there appears to be no sense of urgency. Please advise as I have received notification for recall replacement. Thank you.

Takata airbag recall - I received the notice but the dealership has been unable to obtain the parts for the repair for over 1 year. What is the point of a recall if there is no resolution? the airbag has been identified as defective and needs to be replaced, the dealer is willing to do the repair, but they can't obtain the replacement part.

There iare cracks on my dash and around the airbag, if I get in a wreck and the airbag deploys, shards of the dash will fly into the backseat where my children are. This is not safe and needs to be fixed.

My vehicle has a takata airbag. I have inquired my local dealer to schedule a replacement for almost three (3) years. The only thing they have told me is that a remedy is not yet available. Seems odd as others I know have gotten their airbag replaced.

Takata recall . I've contacted at least 2 Chevrolet dealerships in my area and asked them both to contact me ASAP , since they both claimed no parts were available. Neither have contacted me since and I made the 1st phone call last year. It seems as though Chevrolet has no true intentions to fix my airbag issue.

In July 2016 gm sent me a notice of a recall (recall 49151) for defective airbags that could cause injury. I have called the dealership and they say they have not got to me vehicle or that gm has not proceeded on this an I have heard nothing as of toad that I would be contacted when the parts are available. I have heard nothing as of today.

Takata recall. Gm issued recall notice #2049152 on 05/27/16 and sent a letter to me in July 2016. Docket id NHTSA-2016-0124 documents the back and forth between gm and the agency during the past two years. The uncertainty of whether or not my truck may kill me because of an unresolved safety issue is beyond concerning. How much longer do owners of the affected vehicles need to wait before action is taken to protect the driver's life and restore confidence in the safety of these gm vehicles? gm owner's luck and patience have been tested beyond reasonable measure.

I own a 2008 chevy Avalanche that has the dashboard cracking by the airbag and above the dashboard cluster which is going to resul in someone getting seriously injured or even lost of a life (deaf). While driving on a rough road a section of the dash broke from being cracked striking me in my face next to my left eye. If not have reacted in urgent moment the dashboard piece that broke from the dash would have struck me in the eye and could have caused me to loose my eye. I contacted gm coporate office about the problem and was told not there problem. U guys really need to recall this defect urgent as possible because the next owner with a cracked dashboard might not be as lucky as I where may loose there eye or even there life. It's a shame that gm don't care n it seems after looking at all the complaints that's been received here NHTSA doesn't care if someone get seriously injured or lost of life either. So much for our government.

Takata recall. The manufacturer says �no remedy is available�. I have also called the local Chevrolet dealership to try to schedule recall repair work and they also told me that no remedy is available. It is of great concern to me that this defect, which has proven fatal to some drivers, is not being repaired in a timely manner. I implore the NHTSA to take swift and decisive action to remedy this situation (or make a determination that replacement is not necessary).
