Started my vehicle to move it in the driveway this past Saturday and before I was able to shift into gear the driver and passenger airbags deployed without warning. No collision, etc. The vehicle wasn't even out of park yet. Sounded like a shotgun went off in the cab of the truck. Luckily I was not leaned forward attempting to shift gears or I would have caught the full force of the deployment to my face. Took quite a hit to the chest and stomach area. Extremely fortunate this happened in the driveway and not while driving at highway speeds in traffic. Upon research found a pending recall which hasn't been resolved yet by NHTSA. This issue is real and extremely dangerous. I could have been seriously injured or injured others if this happened while driving. I am now stuck with 2 deployed airbags and if I wish to repair several thousands of dollars to fix problem. Gm needs to make this right and repair. If the manufacturer takata has identified a problem with the air bag deployment system provided and utilized by gm this should be repaired by gm.
Two cracks in the dash have formed. One on the drivers side and one on the passengers side. The crack on the passengers side travels from the dash air bag to the top joint between the two dash pieces. The crack on the drivers side travels from the joint between the two dash pieces towards the driver along the left side of the instrument portion of the dash. Notice the crack on the drivers side when sitting stationary in my driveway and then finding the crack on the passengers side.

Passenger airbag recall due to takata's supply to gm has been identified they are are defective and gm was given till August 2017 and nothing to date has been done to rectify this defective finding. Docket no. Nhtsa-2016-0124. Upon previous calls to gm they are dismissing this recall; however, the recall notice is on my license plate renewal form, searchable on the internet and the NHTSA website and yet no one is holding gm accountable for every 2007-2008 gm owner (certain 2007-2008 Cadillac escalade, escalade esv, escalade ext, Chevrolet avalanche, Silverado 1500, suburban, tahoe, GMC sierra 1500, yukon, and yukon xl vehicles) whom are at risk.
Air bag light is in and I had a lifter failure on my motor. Bed and rockers are rotting out.
Swerved to miss a deer and hit an embankment and a cement culvert on a highway at night, was by myself. Neither of my airbags deployed and I hit my chest extremely hard on the steering wheel and I am in severe pain from my ribs. Have severe hematoma and bruising.
Please finalize the decision on recall of takata airbags. I have been waiting for several years for an outcome. Every time I check on the recall, I am advised (whether it be by gm or NHTSA) that the recall is "incomplete. Remedy not yet available. " apparently, gm filed a petition for inconsequentiality and the determination of that petition has been hanging in limbo for years. Please either approve it or deny it. Well over a year ago, I contacted gm and they insisted that the vehicle is safer to drive. Meanwhile, class action lawsuits are occurring due to numerous us deaths related to the airbags. Nhtsa has not made a determination. I went so far as to contact my state attorney's office over a year ago and they could not comment. Please resolve and cause gm to advise consumers. Thank you!.

"takata recall" it has been almost to years since I was first informed about the airbags being a safety issue.

O'reilly Chevrolet dealer listed on recall was contacted with almost ridiculous results. First phone call was told person who handled recalls was ou, would return call, never happened. Called later same person said they would assist but I needed a recall number. I had no such number but I did have VIN, after several minutes on hold I was told ther was a recall but I would need to bring vehicle in to determine what was necessary to schedule an appointment for repair. Arrived at service department to line of cars and waiting room full of customers, approximately 1/2 hour wait. Turned off passenger airbag and will sell accordingly.
