The dealer keeps saying there is no remedy for the passenger side airbag recall.
There has been a recall out on this vehicle for several years now, I just looked it up on safercar. Gov and it says that there is an unresolved recall out on my truck. There originally has been one out on the passenger side air bag. But now I just heard that air bags on 2007 thru 2014 are included in a recall. I would like to know if my truck is included in a recall or not.
Takata recall- contacted gm again about an estimated time frame for my faulty passenger side airbag replacement. They said they had no clue and advised me to not have anyone sit on the passenger side of the vehicle. I then contacted the manufacture directly and the rep tells me that it has not be proven that the vehicle is dangerous. I feel very uneasy having my family in this vehicle and gm seems to have to plan or time frame as to when they can help me.

Takata recall I've been unable to get the passenger side air bag replaced. Chevy tells me my status is 'incomplete" and I will be contacted when they have replacement parts. I'm concerned chevy may never get replacement parts due to takata filing for chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Gm recall #: 2049152 NHTSA # 16v383.
The dash is cracked next to the passenger side airbag. If the air bad deploys the sharp edges could damage the airbag.
Moving my truck from the back yard to the front yard, traveling less than 3 mph, no one on the passenger side. The passenger side air bag deployed first and then about 2 seconds later the drivers side airbag deployed. The chevy emblem on the steering wheel embedded itself into my right hand nearly breaking my thumb. After coming to stop, I noticed the seat belt pretensioners on both sides had also been deployed and they are now locked up tight. The truck did not hit anything. I say it like this because the Chevrolet dealership would not believe me and told me it was impossible and that it was my fault. I want my truck fixed because I no longer have any safety features. Chevy said they will fix it for $4,000. 00. I say the control module went bad and it is their fault and it should be fixed for free.
While I was driving my vehicle the passenger side airbag blew up. After the residual trama wore off, I immediately headed to the dealership. While on the way (about 5 minutes late) the drivers side blew up in my face. I made it to the dealership where they had to unlock the seat belt that was cinching me in. To make a long story short, they replaced the airbag and were going to charge me for the new seat belt. But after some haggling they covered that too. My question is --how can I know if the new airbag they put in is or is not a takata airbag. (since those are recalled) this incident happened in August of 2013.
The dashboard has cracked running from the corner of the passenger side airbag towards the windshield. This happened when the vehicle was parked and not in use. I am very concerned that a vehicle of this age has a defect such as this in the location that it does. I fear that in the event of an accident and deployment of the airbag, the already cracked plastic of the dashboard could become a dangerous projectile.
I was traveling northbound a regular city street when the inside of my tires hit a pot hole and set off my side impact airbags on my 2007 chevy Silverado 1500 z71 4x4. There was no side impact on the truck at all and no front -end collision to set off the front air bags(they did not deploy). I am extremely worried about the safety of others. Please look into this.
Hello- recently I had an issue with my 2007 Chevrolet silverado while driving along a major interstate. My airbags deployed for no reason. No collision occurred, they just went off while driving about 60 mph in traffic. Stasek Chevrolet did a fine job of repairing the interior and I received my vehicle back 3 weeks later. When I asked the service mgr. Why it happened, he stated he did not know. I asked if it will happen again and I got the same answer. . "I don't know". My dilemma at this point is that my personal safety(as well as my families) may be at risk while driving this vehicle in the future. I spoke with customer service at gm corporate and they didn't care about the matter and refused to cooperate with me. Told me to contact a lawyer. I cant afford an attorney at this time, otherwise I would pursue that route. I believe a proper resolution would have been to replace the vehicle with a new one or purchase it back so I could afford to purchase another truck. Gm didn't want anything to do with me. I'm not the kind of person to try and gouge money out of the situation with some massive lawsuit. I'm not seeking any monetary compensation from gm. My personal safety is more important, and I believe I deserve to feel safe in a fairly new vehicle that only has 19k miles on it. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time. Regards, eric bauler.
