Takata recall _ my airbags have been recalled but no one has contacted me to fix them and the dealership said they can't fix them with out the parts. I need help.
I received a letter 1 and half years after the recall of my airbags. I went to www.airbagrecall.com to get my airbags replaced, walked through the system and it sent me to a local dealer. Called them and they said there is no fix yet for the airbags
I have received a recall from GM concerning a defect in the takata air bag which could cause injury or death if deployed. There does not appear to be a resolution at this point for repair or replacement. I am concerned about injury to my family.
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.
I have been trying to get the airbag replaced for over a year. The dealers I have contacted continually tell me they cannot get the airbags. I have contacted 3 dealers and made contact in excess of 10 times trying to get the recalled airbag replaced. Please help before an injury occurs!
Takata recall my airbag light has been on for a few months now. It is always on and the risk of injury to myself and family members is at stake. This meds to be remedied asap!

Takata recall. A recall was put in place May 2016. It is now October 2017 and we have yet to have airbags addressed or fixed. We are a one vehicle family and must have our vehicle. GM says they are safe to drive, but the same airbags were in my grandmother's Honda CRV and they were deemed not safe and they provided her with a rental vehicle while they replaced her airbags. I am worried about the safety of my family in my vehicle pending GM's appeal to the recall.
We were on a two lane road heading westbound. East bound vehicle crossed center strip striking our front drivers side of vehicle. We were on a curve in the road, traveling approx 40-45mph while other vehicle was traveling the same mph if not more. Our vehicle sustained frame damage to the front drivers side as well as all airbags deploying except passenger side airbag/in seat airbag. Airbags that did deploy include: Steering wheel, drivers curtain, drivers side airbag/seat, passenger dash board, passenger curtain, middle row curtains (both sides), 3rd row curtains (both sides). Passenger sitting in front seat is an adult and large enough that the airbag should have deployed. Attached are pictures to show all airbags in front row, as well as vehicle damage and police report. I have additional photos to show the rest of the airbags if needed.
Several cracks on the dashboard that covers the air bag assembly concerned that if the airbag deploys that the plastic from the dashboard will cause bodily harm
