Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problems of the 2011 Chevrolet Suburban

The dashboard is severely cracked in multiple spots. I fear if involved in an accident my airbags would be compromised. Not to mention one crack is on the passenger airbag which is recalled due to the takata inflators recall that seems to never be resolved. I am aware of many GMC/Chevrolet owners that have this issue.

Takata recall- I contacted the closest dealership to my house and they informed me that Chevrolet has not provided the replacement airbag inflator to the dealerships to fix the issue even though this recall is dated may 27, 2016, a year and a half later they haven't provided the parts to the dealerships to fix this problem. There has been no incidents or injuries yet, but I am concerned for my family that rides in the vehicle with a defective airbag inflator.

This is a florida vehicle where heat and humidity (the major factors identified with failures of these airbags/inflators) can cause my Suburban to be a high risk to me and my family. We submitted for this recall in 2016 and have yet to be contacted on status or estimated time for the parts/procedures to be ready to complete this repair. As gm disagrees with this recall, they appear to be stalling in hopes that the vehicles will just be retired before they have to repair them. We shouldn't have to wait until people die for the NHTSA to force the hand on gm to implement this recall.

Important safety recall notice submitted to notify me of the important recall for my vehicle. General motors has been unable to solve the problem, nor replace or fix the issue. (id# 16v381). My other vehicle, of a different manufacturer, was quickly corrected and made safe. It is completely unacceptable for gm to leave this issue for so long unresolved. Notice was mailed July 2016, it is now November 2019. More than 3 years for a repair of propellant that may degrade causing the inflators to "rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries. " this is unacceptable. Three years is unacceptable for gm to delay.

Takata recall, NHTSA recall number 16v381, no dealers have an inflator to complete this recall, and this is very dangerous in hot south florida.

Takata recall about 2 years ago, I received a card informing me about the air bag inflators being defective. I called the dealer that I bought the vehicle from and they transferred me to parts department. Upon stating they had not received the replacement parts, they advised to call back later. This has been going on for 2 hears but they state the parts have not come in. I do not feel comfortable driving myself or putting my family for trips in the Suburban without replacing the air bags.
