general problems of the 2009 GMC Sierra 1500 - part 1

Early October my passenger side airbag deployed and I was sitting in the drivers seat and had just put the key into the key hole but did not turn the key to start the vehicle. 3 weeks later I was going into the passenger side of the vehicle and the key was in my pocket and the drivers side airbag deployed. Both times the vehicle was not started and the airbags deployed I called GMC and they had the vehicle towed to a dealer to investigate why the airbags deployed. They said it was a sensor that was corroded and that’s why the airbags deployed. I asked GMC, why didn’t the sensor left the driver know that it was going bad, just like it notifies the driver if you have low tire pressure or needs an oil change. I had no notifications that the airbags were going to deploy. I’m so grateful that no one was driving the vehicle when they deployed. GMC said the vehicle is not safe to drive so they had it towed from my house to the dealership and then back to my house however they said they are not taking responsibility for the deployment and said it’s my responsibility to get the airbags fixed. I told GMC that I was filing a complaint with you all. Thank you for looking into this matter.

General published an article about the takata airbag recall stating that the dashboard would be inspected prior to doing the recall work and if already cracked or damaged the dashboard would not be replaced. My dash board is like new with no damage or cracks. The dealer told me (contrary to this article) that if their service men damaged my dashboard while doing the recall replacement I would be responsible for any replacement even if my dashboard is in perfect condition prior to the work. I find this unacceptable and will not have my airbag replaced under these conditions. The dealer/gm should be responsible for any damage they cause during the repair.

Received a air bag recall notice . I scheduled a appointment with hall Buick GMC in tyler texas 10-18-21 at 11:00 am . We showed up to service dept. The young guy checking us in told us that 92% of the time they will crack the dash when getting it removed to do the the air bag recall work and the dealer is not responsible for any damage. I told him to get his manger so he did. We talked to service manger john mackey he told use the same thing that the dealer is not responsible for any damage done to the dash like cracks or breakage while doing air bag recall work. I told him as you can see this truck has been garage kept since new and not in the sun. He said I can see that . I told him per the paper work I received if not fixed it may cause serious injury or death to passengers . Who's going to pay for that. He said gm and takata. Is there any one that can do the air bag recall work without damaging the dash.

The contact owns a 2009 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that the service air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA campaign number: 21v052000 (air bags). The vehicle was repaired but continued to experience the failure. The manufacturer was informed of the failure but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 131,667.

There was no incident, yet. However, this recall was issued on February 5, 2021, today is July 6, 2021. My safety and the safety of passengers are at risk because there is no resolution from the manufacturer thus far, over five months. This recall also negatively affects the resell/trade-in value of my vehicle. Because of the active recall, dealers will not trade for my vehicle for a reasonable value. So, due to the manufacturer being unable to fix the problem in a timely manner, I am financially impacted.

Hello, I was just at mossy GMC in new orleans,la. , where I went to see about getting my recalled airbag ordered and replaced. The service rep told me that when they change out the airbag, most of the time the dashboard cracks even more, where they willbe working, but they will not replace the broken dashboard. I feel that this is totally rediculous! if I didn't have that damage before going into a service center, and now I have damage caused by the service center, I should not be having to pay for a new dashboard out of my own pocket. I feel that a cracked dashboard could compound the severity of a car crash, being said, it could shatter into pieces upon airbag deployment and send shards of dashboard flying at both the driver and their passengers. The shards, could also lacerate the airbags and render them useless. Please help me out with this situation.

Contacted gm corporate, they told me they can't help me and to call the local dealer to schedule getting the service to get done. Local dealer does not have any information, is not able to get parts, and is not willing to do service as it will not be covered under warranty as its not in gm's system. Gm is continuing to stall and this has been a four year ordeal. Local dealer has no timeframe of when the system will be updated so they can begin the work, they have no clue when they will be able to get parts or if they will even be able to get parts.
