TAKATA RECALL - CALLED MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND WAS AGAIN TOLD GM HAS NOT PROVIDED A FIX/REPLACEMENT FOR THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG INFLATORS. THE DEALERSHIP INFORM ME I HAD TO CALL GM CUSTOMER SATISFACTION DIRECTLY. I CALLED GM CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AND WAS TOLD THAT GM IS INTERNALLY CONDUCTING TESTS ON THE TAKATA AIRBAGS AND CURRENTLY FEEL THERE IS NO "UNREASONABLE" RISK BUT THEY ARE STILL INVESTIGATING AND REVIEWING THE SITUATION. IF THE MANUFACTURER (TAKATA) HAS DETERMINED THERE IS A DEFECT AND RISK BASED ON THEIR AIRBAG INFLATOR DESIGN I WANT THE INFLATOR REPLACED AND NOT RUN THE RISK THAT IT FALSELY GOES OFF CAUSING PHYSICAL HARM OR DEATH TO A PASSENGER. THE RISK IN GM'S OPINION MIGHT BE LOW MEANING THEIR COST ANALYSIS BETWEEN SETTLING CLAIMS VERSUS REPLACING THE INFLATORS IN POTENTIALLY MILLIONS OF VEHICLES IS DRIVING THEIR INACTION. GM SAID IF THERE IS AN UPDATE I CAN CHECK THEIR RECALL WEBSITE AND THEY WOULD BE SENDING OUT LETTERS - THIS IS THE SAME THING THEY TOLD ME ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND I'VE RECEIVED NO UPDATE FROM GM.

TAKATA RECAL: THE RECALL HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. EVERY TIME I CALL A GM SERVICE CENTER THEY TELL ME THEY DON'T HAVE PARTS TO FIX IT YET. THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL HAVE PARTS. THEY TOLD ME NO ONES VEHICLE HAS BEEN FIXED YET. THIS IS A SHAME. I DON'T EVEN WANT MY KIDS IN THE TRUCK. WHY WON'T THEY STEP UP AND FIX THESE AIRBAGS. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHEVROLET. ARE THEY WAITING FOR PEOPLE TO GET INJURED, DIE, OR GO AWAY?
