It's been over 4 years since receiving this recall for airbags that can kill me instead of protect me in an accident. This is more than enough time to correct this issue but it's being ignored until everyone either forgets or more people die. I can't get the dealers to disable or remove the airbag so why even give me recall notice? I need this fixed so I can drive safely or sell my vehicle without concern of others.
I have three GM vehicles with this same recall notice (#49151) from July of 2016. To this day I keep being told the remedy is not yet available. What should be my expectation for resolution? fortunately there has not been a problem.

I received a recall notice from GM in July 2016 regarding defective takada airbags in my vehicle. I live in Georgia (usa) and my vehicle has been stored outside in hot and humid conditions for the past twelve (12) years. The vehicle occasionally achieves an interior temperature exceeding 200 degreesfahrenheit during the summer months of June, July and August. I have called GM on several occasions to obtain information regarding replacement of my defective takata airbags and GM continues to respond that they are not providing any corrective action I am very concerned that, due to the exposure of my vehicle to the extreme hot and humid conditions in Georgia, that my airbags could potentially injure, kill, or result in an automobile accident if an airbag failure occurs due to the degradation of the airbags due to the extreme heat and humidity that occurs in Georgia. I am requesting assistance to have the defective takata airbags replaced in my 2008 Chevrolet Suburban.

There is an open recall that has been open now for 4 years, and GM still does not have a remedy for it. It seems excessive that GM has not yet found any kind of solution when other car makers with the same takata recalls made remedies nearly as soon as the recall was issued.

There is a recall on my Chevy Suburban where the passenger air bag is. I have been checking for a long while on when there will be a remedy for this recall and everytime I check there is nothing new stated. This defect deals with the air bag. A function of the car that deals with safety. I think it has been too long with there being no information put out on how to deal with this issue. People have spent their hard earn money on the purchase of an expensive product and the product is defective due to the manufacture. Their is a big crack in the dash board that also looks terrible. Please get on this company about not taking the time to do what's right by their customers.
Driving when you reach about 30-35 mph all the locks start cycling up and down, all the gauges go haywire, there is a throttle in the engine. When you turn it off sometimes it starts back up and runs fine and sometimes it won't do anything like the battery is dead and then a few minutes later it comes back on and starts back up. The last incident was 01/09/20 but this started in 12/2019. The vehicle has a brand new engine which only has about 1,000 miles on it. Also there is a crack in the dash at the corner of the passenger side air bag.
I own a vehicle with takata airbag inflators. They have been under recall since 2017 and the recall has not been taken care of because takata has filed bankruptcy and GM does not have a solution or remedy apparently for the recall!!! I need my vehicle recall to be fixed immediately! who's to know if my airbag inflators are compromised and I am angry that GM will not step up and find a solution and pay for the recall!! my safety and that of my family is at risk!! why hasnt this recall on airbag inflators been remedied?? its been 3 years! it's ridiculous and I am angry that GM does not value the safety of it's customers by ensuring swift action on recalls!
