Takata airbag recall - I received the notice but the dealership has been unable to obtain the parts for the repair for over 1 year. What is the point of a recall if there is no resolution? the airbag has been identified as defective and needs to be replaced, the dealer is willing to do the repair, but they can't obtain the replacement part.
Takata recall. The contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche. The contact stated that NHTSA campaign number: 16V381000 (air bags) exceeded a reasonable amount of time for repair. The contact received the recall notification in may of 2016. The dealer (kendall Chevrolet Cadillac of eugene, 846 goodpasture island rd, eugene, or 97401) stated that the parts were unavailable for the repair.

"takata recall" this recall is still open and active on my vehicle! neither GM or takata are doing anything about this! the GM recall site still states, incomplete, remedy not yet available". this is unacceptable, how long is going to be allowed to continue unresolved? the vehicle is considered dangerous because the airbag is faulty and nothing is being done!
"takata recall" nothing has happened yet. However, we have not been in an accident. We feel like we are rolling the dice every time we use our vehicle. We have seen tv reporting where occupants have been grossly facially disfigured and or blinded from metal scraps from these airbags. Why are we being put at this dangerous risk? since it appears, according to my Chevrolet dealer, we are no closer to having a replacement. Thus, I am requesting that you give the dealership.permission to disable or remove the bag. We would rather take our chances without a dangerous air bag that could explode in our face even in a minor accident, as we have done most of our lives before air bags were mandated. Please advise!

I expressed my concern because that recal notice I received was pretty confident that they needed to be replaced. GM service mgr.told me I need not be too concerned.

I contacted advantage Chevrolet when I received the recall notice telling me to call to schedule repair and was told there is no action to take at this time, why does the recall notice tell me to do this if the dealer isn't going to co-operate, also dealer says I will be notified but recall notice says I will not be notified in the future. I do not have a claim other than being part of this recall.
Takata recall I have called the local Chevrolet dealerships numerous times inquiring about the recall and trying to get the problem serviced. They keep telling me that GM hasn't made a decision on what to do yet. This is unacceptable! it is very dangerous to have possible faulty air bags.
Takata recall is in effect, but the local dealerships said that Chevrolet has not sent replacement parts. This is very irresponsible. If the airbags are not replaced, they should be removed to keep a deadly accident from happening.
