Takata recall March 23rd, 2017 to Chevrolet customer service: In January I received your letter informing me of GM recall 15438. Stating 'this letter is to inform you that parts are now available to repair your vehicle.' And 'you should contact your Chevrolet dealer to arrange a service appointment soon as possible'. I called for an appointment, and milton ruben Chevrolet in augusta, ga. Gave me one for February 13th, 2017. When I arrived there, I waited two hours for them to tell me yep! we inspected your vehicle, and you need to have yours replaced. We will order your parts and call you when they come in.
