general problems of the 2010 Chevrolet Avalanche - part 1

Each time I brought the vehicle the vehicle in to have it repaired, the dealer says there are no parts. Each time I check the VIN site, it tells me that there is no remedy available. When will gm repair these defective airbags? the vehicle is still being used for normal family uses.

Takata recall. Remedy not available??? come on guys! just replace the passenger airbag before someone gets hurt!.

Dash board cracking and falling apart. I removed the dashmat to clean under and seen all the damage. The vehicle was not moving.

Dashboard containing passenger side is severely cracked. In the event of an airbag deployment, dashboard may prevent proper operation of airbag or may shatter resulting in parts of the dashboard being projectiles towards the occupants of the vehicle. Gm dealer cost to replace dashboard is prohibitive. The dashboards should be replaced with new style that gm dealer claims no longer cracks or the airbag disabled.

Takata recall: recall number: 16v381 myself, my wife and kids drive my 2010 chevy Avalanche. We live in a region with high summer temps, along with very high humidity levels. I am concerned for the safety of my entire family. What do I do now? for gm to not have a remedy available to replace the faulty airbags is unacceptable. When will this takata airbag issue be resolved? how can I, in good conscience allow my family to drive this truck?.

I purchased my vehicle in hanford CA at keller motors. They tell me they cannot replace airbags because they don't have replacements.

"takata recall" there seems to be no fix at our local dealer, but yet we are at risk!.

Part is not available from chevy need help ASAP critical recall lifes metter.

Takata recall of may 27, 2016. Dealership was contacted today and two previous times since I received the recall letter and has advised me that no solution or parts to repair my recalled vehicle are available.

Takata recall - failure to replace this defective airbag. Status of recall has been remedy not yet available since may 27, 2016.

Takata recall and the remedy to fix it is unavailable for over a year now. Gm keeps telling me that I have a safe vehicle.

Thus far, nothing has "happened" with my vehicle, but there has been a recall in effect for the airbags in my vehicle for well over a year and nothing has been done to replace the airbags. I am also having some electrical problems with my truck not shutting off when I remove the key, and the interior dome lights will not turn on when the button is pressed (this has all began since the recall was initiated but not taken care of). I just want my airbags replaced, as they are supposed to be, given the recall, and if the recalled parts are responsible for the additional problems I am now having with my truck, I want those addressed and repaired as well. The length of time this has taken to address is beyond unreasonable and I have been as patient as I can be waiting for this recalled part to be replaced.

Dashboard is cracked on both upper corners of the passenger side of front airbag. Dash rattles and shakes when driving vehicle. Scared that the airbag will deploy!.

This recall has been pending since GMC filed a petition for inconsequentiality with NHTSA. The status provided to owners is information which hasn't been updated since 2017. It's almost 2021. This is ridiculous. What was bhtsa's decision on the petition filed in 2017?.

I am concerned that there are no replacements for the faulty takata airbags. I called the dealership, and they told me there was nothing they could do. They would not even have an airbag replacement at my own expense to replace the faulty takata airbags. Do I have to be killed or someone else in my truck killed before something is done?.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2010 Chevrolet Avalanche. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 16v381000 (air bags) and stated that the part was not available within a reasonable time frame to schedule the recall repair. The dealer (pete moore Chevrolet, 103 n new warrington rd, pensacola, FL 32506, (850) 456-7000) did not give a specific date for when the part would become available. The manufacturer was contacted and could not provide an estimated date for when the contact's vehicle would receive the recall repair. The necessity of a remedy was dependent upon NHTSA's decision regarding gm's petition. Information on the final decision was not yet available until it was determined by NHTSA pertaining to the contact waiting to receive the remedy and parts for the manufacturer recall. The contact was not experiencing a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

I own a 2010 Chevrolet Avalanche ltz that was purchased used in 2015 (38,000 miles with a small crack just above the air bag to the left, right at the corner of the air bag on the dash board. Since I've had the vehicle, it has cracked more over time to a longer length on the left and right corner and left of the steering column. The vehicle is up kept but the dash board keeps cracking. Im noticing the multiple vehicle Avalanche's have this same problem and why hasnt it been resolved or a recall been placed.

Takata recall ; cracked dash.

Dashboard cracked at corner of airbag. Possible risk of bodily injury with deployment of airbag on passenger side.

I have had my Chevrolet Avalanche dashboard repaired twice for cracking/rattling. The issue seems to be that the clasp underneath the center speaker of the dash is faulty and breaks easily. This causes the rattling which causes the cracking. The cracks appear right above the instrument gauge and the passenger airbag. The concern is that if cracked badly enough, it could send pieces of plastic everywhere in the case of an airbag deployment. Gm will not fix the issue.

Cracked upper end of dash board. Three separate cracks appeared on the upper part of the dash, one is going right across where the passenger air bag is located. This happened for no apparent reason. The vehicle had about 89000 miles on it when I first observed the issue. It rattles like crazy while driving on city roads and it is probably a mojor safety issue in the event of a air bag deployment.

If this part(s) are defective gm should replace immediately. What is the hold up in getting it done and keeping people safe?.

Another faulty gm dashboard. Flaps around while driving - center clip blown out with no structural support to hold two pieces together. Leading cause of dashboard cracking in similar gm vehicles. Concern over air bag effectiveness on account of this issue.

"takata recall" - remedy not available at this time per the dealership.

Takata recall -- my dashboard is cracked, I fear for all of us that have cracked dashboards around our airbags. The speed at which these airbags deploy could easily turn these broken pieces into shrapnel.

Dash cracking next to the passenger airbag due a manufacture¿s defect of poor quality material with little to no support underneath the dash and with every small bump in the road it becomes worse and worse. Dash appears to be made of an inferior material and is not supported properly for it to crack so easily. If the air bag inflates, the dashboard may easily shatter into thousands of shards of sharp plastic that could be a cause of serious injury or death. Many of the thousands of people that have this same problem have said they have had the dash replaced, only to have it crack again. Gm should be 100% responsible for fixing all of their defective dashboards with a good quality product since this is obviously a manufacturer defect.
