"TAKATA RECALL" I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THE AIRBAG IN MY VEHICLE REPLACED SINCE THE RECALL NOTICE. HOWEVER, GM IS UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS. I HAVE READ DOCKET #NHTSA-2016-0124. I HAVE ALSO RECEIVED NOTIFICATION THAT TAKATA IS FILING FOR BANKRUPTCY. AS THE CONSUMER, I AM CAUGHT BETWEEN THESE LEGAL BATTLES. MEANWHILE, WE ARE UNABLE TO USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OF OUR VEHICLE FOR FEAR THE AIRBAG, WHICH THE GOVERNMENT REQUIRES US TO HAVE, WILL EXPLODE AND INJURE/KILL THE PASSENGER. I DEMAND SOMEONE REPLACE OR REMOVE THE TAKATA AIRBAG FROM MY VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY, SO I CAN REGAIN THE FULL USE OF MY VEHICLE. I WILL BE WRITING MY REPRESENTATIVE, SENATOR AND PRESIDENT REGARDING THIS ISSUE ALSO. THIS HAS GONE ON TOO LONG. THE CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES DESERVE RESOLUTION TO FAULTY, UNSAFE EQUIPMENT WITHOUT DELAY.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED THE TK HOLDINGS LEGAL NOTICE AND CANNOT PERFORM THE REQUIRED REPLIES TO THE COMPANY AS PER THE CHAPTER11 REQUESTS TO THE COMPANY. WHEN I TRY IT STARTS DOWNLOADING HUNDREDS OF PAGES. IT WILL NOT STOP UNTIL I HAVE TO SHUT DOWN MY COMPUTER. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS AN EXISTING PROBLEM, BUT IT SEEMS THAT NOTHING WILL GET DONE ABOUT IT. IF I CAN'T FILL OUT THE FORMS THEN THEY WILL BE FOREVER "FREE AND CLEAR".

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN INQUIRING ABOUT THIS RECALL FOR OVER A YEAR. GM REFUSES TO FIX IT, SAYING THE 2008 SILVERADO WILL NOT HAVE THE EXPLODING AIRBAG ISSUE DUE TO THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE VEHICLE. IF THIS WERE TO BE TRUE, WHY IS THE RECALL CONTINUOUSLY LISTED? I HAVE MADE 6 INQUIRIES TO GM AND THEIR DEALERSHIPS WITH NO LUCK. THEY ARE VERY RUDE ABOUT IT AT THE DEALERSHIPS. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE IS USELESS. SO MUCH SO, WE BOUGHT OUR LAST NEW CAR FROM ANOTHER MANUFACTURER.
