2012 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Air Bags Problems

The contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while her son was driving at low speeds during snow weather, the driver-side air bag deployed on its own without a crash or impact with an object. As a result, the driver lost visibility and control of the vehicle resulting in a crashing into a telephone pole and then a ditch where it came to a stop. It was unknown if a warning light illuminated. The paramedics were called and performed a check; however, the contact's son sustained no injuries. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the residence. A dealer was not contacted. The insurance company was contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 200,000.

Mileage: 200,000

Airbag light came on indicating an issue. Went to dealer and the codes that came up are B0030 (Passenger Instrument Panel Air Bag Deployment Loop Stage 2 Short to Ground) and B0413 (Temperature Control 1 Feed back Circuit Actuator Stuck). It cost $597.67 to have a new airbag installed. I worry others couldn't afford this and it should be covered by the mfg due to the safety risk created from the vendor creating airbags that do not last the life of the vehicle.

i took the car to the GM dealer to fix the recalled item and was told the dashboard will crack and will need to be replaced when they pull the airbag out and i will need to pay for new dash board....i told them not to fix it....

Crash Impact Sensor in the drivers side front door has lost communication with the vehicle's airbag computer. Vehicle information display reports the fault and illuminates the red dashboard airbag light. This condition caused by wire harness / conductor fatigue between drivers side door and vehicle body. Observed that if driver's side door moved to certain positions while open the fault would clear. Eventually these wires in the door harness failed due to normal open / close cycles with the door upon entry / exit and now have completely failed so that the dashboard airbag lamp stays illuminated at all times. I have a 2010 Toyota Venza that has a recall on the same type of issue. Why is GM not recalling vehicles for this issue? My dealer has acknowledged that they have seen this issue, but no recall has been issued so they are not able to address it as such.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V054000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The dealer was made aware of the issue. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

This is in regards to: Manufacturer Recall NumberN212328800 NHTSA Recall Number21V054 GM's handling of this is absolutely unacceptable. I have been waiting for parts for over a year. GM's statement is "just don't drive it" if I have a concern about me or someone dying from their defective part. For over a year this is [XXX] to put it bluntly. I just got a letter stating that parts were now available, I have called immediately and was told sorry, there aren't actually parts available now. No ETA. GM should be financially compensating me for giving me no other option to drive an unsafe vehicle for over a year and who knows how much longer. I don't have the financial means to 'just not drive my truck for over a year', or to 'go buy/lease another vehicle for this duration'. I'm livid that this problem hasn't been resolved and more needs to be done federally to put the heat to GM.

I received recall notice N212328770 by letter in July 2021. I immediately notified my local dealership and they told be they were waiting for the part. We just received a call from the dealer about a week ago and schedule to ge the recall issue repaired on Wednesday, February 9th 2022. We were given an appointment and my wife had to take the vehicle due to the me working. She arrived to have the safety defect replaced (passender air bag) and was told that when they do the replacement that if the dash cracks or is damaged they are not responsible for the damages and we would have to pay to get it fixed or replaced. This is very pooe customr service as well as causing a customer not to go through getting the recall completed. My wife called me and did not want to challenge the dealership. I told her just come home and do not let them make the repair/replacement and I would contact GM. I have had no luck doing so. This should be a no brainer. If they damage the dash or it cracks they fix it or replace it. My dash does hav 2 small cracks right where the air bag is located and from what I have read online many have stated that they too have had the same issue. This is supposedly due to the air bag issue. So now I am in a rock and hard place. I either don't get it done and risk a serious injury or death due to GM's unwillingness to take responsibility and handle in a professional manner or have them do it, damage the dash and pay lots of money to get it replaced. Can you please advise what I should do? Since I can not provide you with any personal info so you can contact me what am I to do to get this recified? A very long standing upset GM customer.

I have received a recall letter from General Motors regarding recall # N212328800, NHTSA campaign ID number 21V054. The letter was dated last February of 2021 and received shortly thereafter. The letter specifically states that I am to receive a second letter advising when the parts are available and requesting that I take my vehicle to a Chevrolet dealer. As of today, January 17, 2022, I have not received any such letter. I am writing to advise you of GMs totally unacceptable response to this instance of the Takata airbag recall. I have checked with Chevrolet dealers in my area and am being told that I can come to their lot and they will order the parts and THEN call me when they are ready to do the work. This response is contrary to the way the letter states that the recall will be handled and is confusing to customers. Please investigate and get GM back on track. I would also appreciate an email from someone at GM advising when the airbag parts will be available or if they are already available. I can be reached by email at [XXX]. Thank you.

Dash Board of my vehicle has cracked around the area of my air bag. Worried that my air bag will not work properly if ever in an accident. No dash board should crack! Either the material's used when made were not as durable as they should be. Truck has been maintained in excellent condition since it was bought from dealership. No inspection, no safety lights on, no warning lights on. As being the original owner and seeing this worries me and my safety. NO DASHBOARD SHOULD NEVER CRACK/SPLIT.

Chevy refuses to replace the recalled Takata airbags currently under recall without doing a “full vehicle inspection” and providing us with a “list of repairs that must be made” before the airbag can be ordered or replaced. Note: The is nothing wrong with our truck. They say this is their standard operating procedure for this recall and it requires two full day appointments: one for the inspection and one for the recall repair. They refuse to order the replacement airbag until the inspection has been completed and any repairs Chevy deems “necessary” are complete. This seems to me to be extortion, i.e. we have to keep a defective airbag or comply with their inspection and any repair/payment for anything they deem “necessary.”

Takata Recall. The contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 21V051000 (Air Bags). The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer for the recall repair. While the mechanic was inspecting the vehicle, the contact was informed that while performing the recall repair on the passenger’s side frontal air bag, there could be potential damages to the dashboard that the dealer would not be responsible for repairing, replacing, or reimbursing the contact for any damages. The contact felt that was not right and did not want the recall repair performed if neither the dealer nor the manufacturer would not repair nor reimburse the contact for damages made to the dashboard. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and agreed with the local dealer. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

MY PASSENGER AIR BAG WAS REPLACED UNDER RECALL N202324210 BY PRIORITY CHEVROLET OF CHESAPEAKE VA. I WAS REQUIRED BY THE DEALERSHIP TO SIGN ACKNOWLEDGING THAT THE GM OR THE DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR DASHBOARD CRACKING AS PART OF THE REPAIR. MY TRUCK IS LOW MILEAGE AND IN GREAT CONDITION SO I EXPECTED NO PROBLEMS. HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIP TECHNICIAN DID CRACK MY DASHBOARD AND PREDICTABLY THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO TAKE ANY ACTION. I THINK IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT THE MANUFACTURER AND THEIR AUTHORIZED SERVICE DEPARTMENTS SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO DAMAGE CUSTOMER VEHICLES DURING RECALL REPAIRS. ALSO, WHILE MY CRACKS ARE FAIRLY SMALL, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT INVISIBLE DAMAGE MIGHT HAVE OCCURRED. HOW CAN I BE CONFIDENT THAT THE RECALL REPAIR DID NOT CREATE MISSILE HAZARDS? IT IS COMMON TO VIEW THE DASHBOARD AS MERELY DECORATIVE BUT I AM NOW FORCED TO CONSIDER WHAT NEW HAZARDS ARE PRESENTED BY THE DASHBOARD, BOTH FROM UNSECURED MATERIAL IN A CRASH AND MISSILE HAZARDS IN THE AREA OF THE AIRBAG, THAT WERE DIRECTLY CAUSED BY A GOVERNMENT ORDERED RECALL. I BELIEVE THAT NHTSA SHOULD ORDER REPAIR OF ALL MOUNTING EQUIPMENT AND DASHBOARD COMPONENTS AS PART OF THIS AND FUTURE AIR BAG RECALLS. THANK YOU.

TTHIS VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN 3 SEPARATE ACCIDENTS, 1ST ANOTHER DRIVER PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF THE TRUCK CAUSING THE ACCIDENT; 2ND A DRIVER FELL ASLEEP WITH HIS FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR AND REAR ENDED ME AT ABOUT 90 MPH; 3RD AN OUT STATE DRIVER REAR ENDED MY SON'S CAR WHICH WAS FORCED INTO THE REAR OF MY TRUCK. THE 3 ACCIDENTS WERE SEVERE ENOUGH THAT THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN SOME TYPE OF AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT BUT THERE WAS NOT. I NOTIFIED GM IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE 1ST ACCIDENT ABOUT THE FAILURE OF THE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY. I SHOULD MENTIONED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT BROKE DUE THE HARSHNESS OF THE ACCIDENT. ALL THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL YEARS AGO BUT GM NEVER ANSWERED ME NOR TOOK ANY ACTION TO INVESTIGATE THE FAILURE OF THE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY. TODAY, 4 MARCH, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE BECAUSE AFTER ALL THESE YEARS TAKATA HAS ADMITTED THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BAGS, EXCEPT THEY SAY IT IS ONLY THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH I DIDN'T EVEN THINK I HAD AIR BAGS BECAUSE THEY NEVER WORKED. THE ID NUMBER FOR THIS RECALL IS 21V051. I AM HOPEFUL THAT EVEN THOUGH THESE ACCIDENTS TOOK PLACE YEARS AGO, I DON'T HAVE ACTUAL DATES BECAUSE I DIDN'T THEY WERE IMPORTANT, THAT YOU, AS THE FEDERAL AGENCY RESPONSIBLE FOR OVERSEEING THE SAFETY OF CARS USING OUR HIGHWAYS, WILL INQUIRE AS TO WHY GM FAILED TO INVESTIGATE A SAFETY COMPLAINT SUBMITTED TO THEIR CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER. HAVING SOME ADMINISTRATION KNOWLEDGE I AM SURE THERE HAS TO BE A FILE FOLDER WITH MY COMPLAINT IN IT. THANK YOU AND PLEASE HELP ME? * (RECALL RELATED INCIDENT) TS
