TAKATA RECALL - MY VEHICLE IS LISTED AS HAVING THE TAKATA AIRBAG INSTALLED AND RECALLED - GM RECALL # 2049151 - NHTSA # 16V381. WHEN I CALLED GM THEY SAID THE RECALL WAS ON HOLD AND I COULD NOT GET MY CAR SERVICED UNDER THE RECALL. THESE AIR BAGS HAVE BEEN PROVEN TO BE DEADLY AND I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY GM IS HOLDING BACK FORM ALLOWING ME TO KEEP MY FAMILY SAFE AND PERFORM THE RECALL ON MY VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL. MY CAR HAS BEEN UNDER RECALL SINCE 2016. THE CADILLAC DEALER IS REFUSING TO REPLACE THE FAULTY AIRBAG(S). I CONTACTED GM ONLINE, THEY CLAIM THEY HAVE REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS FROM TAKATA BUT GM DOESN'T DEEM IT NECESSARY TO MAKE THE REPLACEMENT ON MY VEHICLE AT THIS TIME. IS THE NHTSA AIRBAG RECALL AN OPTIONAL RECALL TO BE PERFORMED OR REFUSED BY THE MANUFACTURER?? WHEN WILL YOU ALL GET SERIOUS AND MAKE GM/CADILLAC COMPLY WITH THE RECALL AND REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS????

TAKATA RECALL CADILLAC DEALERS IN THE LA AREA ARE SAYING THEY DO NOT HAVE PARTS TO REPLACE AIRBAGS. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR AND A HALF! WHEN I CALLED GM THEY SAY THE AIRBAG IS FINE AND IT IS ONLY A PRELIMINARY RECALL AND DOES NOT NEED TO BE REPLACED AND SO THEY ARE NOT SUPPLYING THE DEALERS WITH THE PARTS. YES MY VEHICLE IS ON THE RECALL LIST!

TAKATA RECALL LETTER RECEIVED FROM GM CADILLAC NEARLY 2 (OR 2+) YEARS AGO. HAVE BEEN TO TOM PEACOCK DEALERSHIP THAT I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM EVERY 4-6 MONTHS SINCE THEN. TOLD EVERY TIME THAT THEY CAN'T HELP, THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN REPLACEMENTS BAGS WILL BE IN. I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE FROM GM CADILLAC - NOT TAKATA. I WANT GM CADILLAC TO REPLACE THESE DEFECTIVE AIR BAGS IMMEDIATELY.

I CONTACTED MY DEALER WHEN I GOT THE ORIGINAL RECALL NOTICE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. AT THE TIME THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE A SOLUTION TO SWITCH OUT THE AIRBAGS. I RECEIVED THE CARD FROM TK HOLDINGS THIS WEEK. I HAVE AGAIN CONTACTED MY DEALER TODAY TO BE TOLD THAT THEY, SEWELL CADILLAC OF HOUSTON, DO NOT HAVE A FIX YET OR REPLACEMENT BAGS FROM GM. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE SINCE THE ORIGINAL CONTACT REGARDING THE FAULTY AIRBAGS. MY STRESS LEVEL WHEN I GET INTO MY VEHICLE TO DRIVE IT GOES WAY UP!!! WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMEONE COLLIDES WITH ME?

THIS IS BASED UPON TAKATA'S DECISION THAT FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATORS IT SUPPLIED TO GM ARE DEFECTIVE. GM HAS SUBMITTED TO NHTSA A PETITION FOR INCONSEQUENTIALITY AND NHTSA HAS GRANTED GM UNTIL AUGUST 2017 TO COMPLETE ITS INVESTIGATION AND TO SUBMIT ALL DATA SUPPORTING THE PETITION.

NHTSA-2016-0124. SAFETY RISK DESCRIPTION: THE PROPELLANT IN SOME TYPES OF TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATORS CAN DEGRADE OVER TIME, ESPECIALLY AFTER LONG TERM EXPOSURE IN HOT AND HUMID REGIONS. IF THE PROPELLANT DEGRADES TO A CERTAIN LEVEL, THE INFLATORS MAY RUPTURE DURING DEPLOYMENT, CAUSING SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES. REPAIR DESCRIPTION: THE NECESSITY OF A REMEDY IS DEPENDENT UPON NHTSA'S DECISION ON GM'S PETITION FOR INCONSEQUENTIALITY. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE FOLLOWING THAT DECISION. IN THE MEANTIME, YOU CAN ALSO CHECK THE STATUS OF THIS RECALL AT MY.GM.COM/RECALLS. GM CONSIDERS YOUR VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE. RECALL STATUS: INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE
