Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problems of the 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

I received a safety recall for the takata airbag inflators in July 2016. Over the part 3+ years I have contacted the local Chevrolet dealership 6 times for status of the repairs. I have been told that parts are not available. I was told the same thing by the gm customer service person. No one seems to be interested in helping resolve this safety issue. The gm recall number is 49151. The letter states that I will be contacted when parts are available but my concern is with the information I keep receiving that there are no parts going to be available. My last attempt to resolve this was March 2, 2020.

The recall for the passenger airbag inflator is over 2 years old. I called Chevrolet and they are still listing this recall as incomplete and no remedy is available.

Takata recall. Received "important safety recall" on gm letterhead dated July, 2016. Gm recall #"49152", thereafter called gm recall #2049152; NHTSA recall # 16v383. Original letter states "vehicle is presently safe to drive. . . No need to take action now. . . Will be notified when parts are available to remedy your vehicle. " I checked the status of the recall at my. Gm. Com/recalls on the following dates with the same information found: 10/8/16; 1/3/17; 8/10/17. I received a legal notice on 10/20/17, stating that takata, the air bag inflators manufacturer, is/has declared bankruptcy, etc. And decided to follow up on the recall as suggested in the legal notice. I spoke to "mr. P. " (first name) in the service dept at columbia Chevrolet, 513-823-9268, who looked up my VIN and state that his gm website states that gm and takata have petitioned the NHTSA to determine if a recall will be made. I pointed out I have a gm recall and was told gm will send me a recall notice if one is made and "anyway, there are no parts available for this and we don't know what parts they would be. " I think the response that we don't have parts to remedy the problem, (which we now don't acknowledge)15 months after receiving an official recall, which was originated 20 months ago, is inappropriate and has added stress to my life in having to follow-up repeatedly and worry about the safety of my vehicle, which may still have a serious safety concern unaddressed. No motor vehicle accident or other incident to stimulate the action of the air bags has occurred, thankfully.

1. My takata inflator needs to be replaced on my 2007 Chevrolet silverado and, is a recall item, and general motors is using delaying tactics rather than replacing the defective part(s). This is unacceptable. Now my airbag light is on and after looking at the recall list and description it says: safety risk: the propellant in some types of takata airbag inflators can degrade over time, especially after long term exposure in hot and humid regions. If the propellant degrades to a certain level, the inflators may rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries. Remedy: the necessity of a remedy is dependent upon NHTSA's decision on gm's petition for inconsequentiality. Additional information will be available following that decision. In the meantime, you can also check the status of this recall at my. Gm. Com/recalls. Gm considers your vehicle safe to drive. Recall status: recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available . . . . 2. I've had a recurring electrical problem that is not diagnosable as it is a total electrical failure that is not able to be determined by on star and without power, no diagnosis can be made. The computer doesn't keep a record of why the failure occurs, and we have had multiple cables and batteries replaced in an attempt to resolve the unknown issue. This vehicle was produced in canada.

Takata recall. The vehicle I own had a recall issued in August of 2015. (gm recall 49152) there has been no notification of an available repair made to the vehicle in the interim, although gm states the vehicle is "safe to drive" they evidently considered it "safe to drive" when manufactured as well. I live in a hot humid environment (louisiana) where the inflators are described as degrading prematurely. I understand the magnitude of this recall, but I would appreciate a resolution of this issue as soon as possible. I am concerned about he safety of the vehicle and the air bag defect indicator light intermittently comes on .
