DASHBOARD WARNING OF: "SERVICE AIRBAG" CAME ON SEVERAL WEEKS AGO. GOT A NOTICE FROM TK HOLDFINGS; REF, TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATORS. CHECKED LOCAL DEALER FOR RECALL INFO. AND FOUND NO HELP. WAS TOLD A "FIX" WAS NOT AVAILABLE. SO, WHY THE NOTIFICATION IF I CANT GET MY TRUCK REPAIRED UNDER A RECALL? IN THE MEANTIME, I'VE GOT A WARNING LIGHT ON MY DASH, REMINDING ME THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. I REFUSE TO PAY TO HAVE IT INVESTIGATED AND REPAIRED, WHEN IT HAS ALREADY BEEN RECOGNIZED AS BEING FAULTY. WHAT'S GOING ON HERE? DOES MY TRUCK GET REPAIRED OR NOT?

TAKATA RECALL - GM DEALERSHIP STATES "NO REMEDY". MIND BAFFLING TO ME THAT THEY ARE RECALLING A CRITICAL SAFETY COMPONENT THAT IMPACTS THE LIVES OF MY FAMILY AND THEY ARE ALLOWED TO STATE: NO REMEDY. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE TO ME AND NEEDS ATTENTION BY YOUR ORGANIZATION. GIVEN THAT TAKATA IS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS, THE LIKELIHOOD OF REMEDY IS NIL WITHOUT YOUR INTERVENTION. PLEASE HELP!

HAVE A 2008 GMC YUKON XL 1500 THAT WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW FORM DEALERSHIP. OVER THE YEARS OF OWNERSHIP HAVE HEARD A POPPING OR SNAPPING NOISE ON OCCASIONS IN THE FRONT DASH PANEL. THEN TWO WEEKS AGO HEARD IT AGAIN THEN WITNESSED THE DASH CRACK OPEN ON THE TOP LEFT SIDE WHICH HAS CAUSED THE DASH PANEL TO WIGGLE FREE AND ALSO CRACKED AT THE MOUNTING POINT. THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR CITY STREET. THOUGHT THE DASH WAS GOING TO SHATTER FROM THE NOISE IT MADE. HAD TO PULL OVER THANK GOD IT DID NOT COME OUT WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSE ME TO WRECK. HAVE SEEN THIS REPORTED OVER AND OVER WITH THESE DASH PANELS. ALSO IT REPORTED ON THE NEWS OVER THE INTERNET FROM WMCACTIONNEWS5.COM. THESE NEED TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT OR WORSE. THE SAD PART OF IT ALL IS THE DEALERSHIPS WANT OVER $1000.00 JUST TO REPLACE A PART THAT THEY KNOW FAILS AND THAT THEY HAVE STRUCTURAL ISSUES WITH AND OVER 100 PLUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT ACROSS AMERICA ALONE.
