What owners report
AIRBAG RECALL THAT HAS NOT BEEN REPLACED
DRIVING 60MPH AND LOST ALL LIGHTS POWER MOTOR EVERYTHING THE VEHICLE CAME BACK ON AND REPEATED THIS OVER AND OVER TILL IT WAS PARKED GM'S SAID MY TRUCK WASN'T COVERED SO I ASKED FOR THE RECALLED PART NUMBER AND WAS RUSHED OFF THE PHONE
THE DASH IS CRACKED IN THREE SPOTS, OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL, VENT AREA AND AT THE CORNER OF THE AIR BAG.
TAKATA RECALL IT HAS BEEN MORE THAN 2 YRS SINCE I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE AIRBAG RECALL. MY AVALANCHE SENSORS ARE STATING THE AIRBAG SYSTEM HAS FAILED. I HAVE BEEN TO THE INTERNET WEB SITES AND THE DEALERSHIP DOZENS OF TIMES ONLY TO GET THE SAME FEEDBACK...NO SOLUTION HAS BEEN DETERMINED, NOTHING THEY CAN DO. IT IS PRETTY CLEAR TO ME THAT THEY KNOW HOW TO FIX THE ISSUE, BUT THEY ARE USING STALL TACTICS TO AVOID INCURING THE COST THEY ARE LEGALLY BOUND TO SPEND. MY PARTICULAR MAKE/MODEL/YEAR WAS SUPPOSED TO PRIORITIZED AND COMPLETED BY MARCH 2018. SINCE IT IS CLEAR TO ME THE STALL TACTICS HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH NO ACCOUNTABILITY, I THOUGHT MAYBE I WOULD TRADE THE CAR IN FOR A SAFER ONE
