TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 GMC YUKON DENALI. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V383000 (AIR BAGS). AFTER CONTACTING HENDRIX GMC (1127 KENTINGTON DR, DURHAM, NC) AND THE MANUFACTURER, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED FOR THE RECALL REMEDY WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

TAKATA RECALL THIS RECALL HAS BEEN OPEN FOR ALMOST 3 YEARS. GM HAS NOT ADDRESSED IT AND PEOPLE ARE DYING. WHY HASN'T THE NHTSA OR SOME OTHER REGULATORY AGENCY HELD GM ACCOUNTABLE? I UNDERSTAND THAT GM HAS APPLIED AND BEEN DENIED 2 TIMES SO FAR TO GET OUT OF ADDRESSING THIS RECALL? THEY ARE WAITING ON A DENIAL FOR THE 3RD APPLICATION? I AM OUTRAGED THAT GM HAS BEEN ALLOWED TO GET AWAY WITH THIS WANTED DISREGARD FOR SAFETY.

I RECEIVED NOTICE JULY 2016 THERE IS A RECALL ON THE TAKATA AIR BAGS. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO CORRECT THE RECALL. IT IS NOW JANUARY 2018 AND IT STILL HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED/REPLACED.

2008 GMC YUKON. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO TAKATA AIRBAG SAFETY RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE TO COMPLETE THE RECALL REPAIR. UPDATED 12/08/2017*JS

"TAKATA RECALL" I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016 AND RECEIVED A POSTCARD FROM TK HOLDINGS IN OCTOBER 2017 REGARDING THE AIRBAG RECALL AND CHAPTER 11 FILING. I HAVE CALLED MY GMC DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS DURING THE PAST 16 MONTHS TO SCHEDULE THE FREE REPAIR PURSUANT TO THE RECALL AND AM REPEATEDLY INFORMED THE DEALER DOES NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO ADDRESS THE RECALL AND REPAIR MY VEHICLE. I WOULD APPRECIATE RECEIVING MORE INFORMATION AS TO THE EXPECTED DATE FOR THE REPAIR OF MY YUKON THAN "WE DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO REPAIR YOUR CAR AND DO NOT HAVE MORE INFORMATION AS TO THE TIMELINE WHEN WE WILL HAVE THE PARTS TO REPAIR YOUR CAR." THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE BASED UPON THE POTENTIAL RISK THAT EXISTS THIS EXPOSES TO ME AND MY FAMILY.

TAKATA INFLATORS : I RECEIVED A LETTER SATING THAT MY VEHICLE AIRBAG IS UNDER RECALL AND I SHOULD CONTACT MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM REPLACE THEM FREE OF CHARGE. I HAVE CALLED THEM TWICE SINCE I GOT THE NOTICE AND THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT I NEED TO CONTACT GMC TO FIND OUT WHO THE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM IS BECAUSE AS OF RIGHT NOW THEY CANNOT OFFER ME ANYTHING TO FIX THE ISSUE.

TAKATA INFLATERS JUST A RECALL BUT NO SOLUTION

I HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED THAT THERE IS A RECALL SINCE MAY 27, 2016 ON THE AIRBAGS TO MY DENALI. HOWEVER, EACH TIME I HAVE SPOKEN TO BARKLEY GMC IN TUSCALOOSA AL I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THERE IS NO PARTS AVAILABLE OR THAT THERE IS NO REMEDY. YET THE WEBSITE AT HTTPS://WWW.AIRBAGRECALL.COM/EN/CHECK-YOUR-VEHICLE HAS NOTED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM AND THAT I SHOULD CONTACT A DEALER. IF THERE IS A RECALL AND I AM BEING INFORMED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THAT IT SHOULD BE SERVICED THEN WHY AM I UNABLE TO OBTAIN THAT SERVICE? THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY BIG CONCERN SINCE IT INVOLVES A RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS TO MY FAMILY VEHICLE. THIS BEGAN IN MAY 2016, WHICH I FIRST WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL AND I JUST CHECKED ONLINE AGAIN TODAY AND THEN AGAIN CONTACTED BARKLEY GMC IN TUSCALOOSA AL AND WAS INFORMED AGAIN THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT THIS RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL-I HAVE CONTACTED OUR LOCAL GMC DEALER TO HAVE THE AIRBAGS FIXED FOR THIS RECALL AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE ARE NO PARTS TO FIX THIS POTENTIALLY FATAL ISSUE AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THEY WILL GET THE PARTS...TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. I WANT THIS REMEDIED IMMEDIATELY.

TAKATA RECALL - HAVE RECEIVED NOTICE AFTER NOTICE OF RECALL AROUND TAKATA INFLATORS AND DEALER SPECIFIES THEY ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO FIX? JUST RECEIVED LEGAL NOTICE THAT TAKATA HAS FILED FOR CHAPTER 11 AND DEALERS WILL STILL NOT FIX??

TAKATA RECALL. I CALLED THE GMC DEALER AGAIN FOR THIS AIRBAG ISSUE ON 10-24-17, AND THEY STATED THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE. THIS HAS BEEN A CONCERN SINCE MAY 2016. WAITING FOR PARTS IS NOT AN OPTION, SINCE THIS ISSUE WAS IDENTIFIED OVER A YEAR AGO. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN CALLING SINCE 2016 AND ALWAYS THE SAME NO PART AVAILABLE AS YET??

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS SENT A RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016, BUT STILL TO THIS DATE, NOTHING HAS BEEN FIXED!!!
