AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TAKATA RECALL. DASHBOARD BEGAN CRACKING ON BOTH DRIVERS SIDE AND PASSENGERS SIDE. DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THEIR VEHICLES AND USED TO HAVE A SOLUTION IN PLACE WHERE THE CUSTOMER WOULD PAY $100 AND THE MANUFACTURER WOULD PAY THE REST TO HAVE IT REPLACES BUT HAD SINCE DONE AWAY WITH THAT DEAL. I IMAGINE CAUSE IT WAS COSTING THEM MORE THAN THEY HAD THOUGHT. ASKED IF MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WOULD COVER IT AND AFTER SPEAKING TO A REPRESENTATIVE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ALSO DID NOT COVER THIS DEFECT.

POWER TRAIN, STEERING, SUSPENSION
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

THERE IS A 4" STRESS CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD JUST HEAD OF THE GAUGE CLUSTER WHICH DEVELOPED A WEEK AGO. MY CONCERN IS TWO FOLD 1) THE CRACK WILL INCREASE IN SIZE REDUCING THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE, 2) IN A IMPACT SITUATION, THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE DASH MAY BE COMPROMISED ALLOWING PIECES OF PLASTIC TO BECOME PROJECTILES, POSSIBLY DAMAGING OCCUPANTS OR DEFLATING THE AIRBAGS THEREBY REDUCING THERE EFFECTIVENESS IN A CRASH.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TAKATA RECALL: PER DEALERSHIP, 8/12/16 UNABLE TO MAKE APPOINTMENT TO FIX THE RECALL NUMBER #49152. THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE IN. SAYS IT COULD TKE UP TO ONE YEAR!!!! WE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE TRUCK WAS SANDWICHED BETWEEN TWO CARS, THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY AT 35 MPH., HE WAS INJURED. AFTER VEHICLE CAME BACK FROM BODYSHOP WITH $7000.00 WORTH OF DAMAGE FIXED, AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND HAS STAYED ON. WE USE THIS TRUCK FOR OUR CONTRACTING BUSINESS, SO IS IT SAFE LIKE GM RECALL LETTER STATES? I CALLED GM BACK ON JULY 1ST, 2016, ASKED IF THERE WAS A TAKATA RECALL ON THIS TRUCK, I WAS TOLD NO. I TOLD THEM THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON SO WHY NOT RECALL BASED ON OTHER 2007 TRUCKS? PART 573 SAFETY RECALL REPORT GIVEN TO THE NHTSA BY GM CLEARLY SHOWS THAT ALL 2007 GMC SIERRAS WERE TO BE RECALLED IN AREA B, WHICH IS WHERE I LIVE.. HIGH HUMIDITY. MEMO WAS SUBMITTED MAY 27TH, 2016. I JUST GOT MY RECALL LETTER YESTERDAY, AUGUST 11TH. WHEN I CALLED GM TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT, AND ASK WHY THE DELAY, I WAS HUNG UP ON. I WANT JUSTICE FOR AIRBAGS THAT DO NOT DEPLOY WHEN THEY SHOULD.. WHAT ABOUT WE FOLK? THERE ARE MANY OF US.THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL ON< AND NOW THERE ARE NO PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. OUR MECHANIC SAYS WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON, THE BAGS WILL NOT WORK. GREAT. NO RENTAL CAR FROM GM AND NO WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. SHOULD WE NOT GO TO WORK? I DOUBT ENTERPRISE WOULD LIKE A CONTRACTOR TO USE THEIR RENTAL TRUCK AS A "REAL" WORK TRUCK LIKE WE DO. HENCE THE PROBLEM.
