ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WE JUST TOOK IN TO HAVE VEHICLE LOOKED AND AND SAID IT WAS FIRST THE ELECTRICAL AND NOW IS THE MEMBRANE OF THE VEHICLE, CAUSING THE REMOTE START AND ENGINE LIGHT TO NOT WORK. ALSO CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CUT OUT DUE TO A PROBLEM IN THE FUEL SYSTEM. LOOKING UP THE VIN I SEE SOME OF THESE VEHICLE HAS THIS ISSUE BUT DOESN'T SHOW UNDER MY VIN. ALSO HAVE BEEN TOLD USING TONS OF OIL AND THIS HAS BEEN SEEN WITH THE GMC YUKONS. WE JUST HAD A VERY EXPENSIVE VISIT TO THE SHOP AND WANT TO KNOW WHY THIS PARTICULAR ISSUES ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLES VIN. YOUR RESPONSE WILL BE APPRECIATED.

I WORK IN A DEALERSHIP AND PURCHASED MY VEHICLE USED IN APRIL 2016. AT THE TIME IT HAD SMALL CRACKS THAT EXTENDED FROM THE DASH AIRBAGS ABOUT 1" OR SO TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD. THE CRACKS ARE NOW QUITE LARGE. IF THE AIRBAGS WERE TO DEPLOY, THE PLASTIC FROM THE DASH WOULD ALSO BECOME AIRBORNE. THIS HAS BECOME A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN TO MYSELF WHILE DRIVING AS WELL AS ANYONE WHO MAY SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT, INCLUDING MY GRANDCHILDREN. THESE CRACKS ARE NOW ABOUT 1/4" IN WIDTH AND ABOUT 3" LONG AND EXTEND FROM THE EDGE OF THE AIRBAG AND END AT THE DEFOGGER VENTS UNDER THE WINDSHIELD. I FEEL THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT GM SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT AS WELL. IT WOULD BE TO GM'S ADVANTAGE TO TAKE CARE OF THIS NOW, RATHER THAN WAIT UNTIL THE UNTHINKABLE HAPPENS. I WILL FORWARD PICTURES IF YOU REQUEST. THANK YOU. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE CONTACTED GM, DEALERSHIPS AS GM TOLD ME AND NOW HERE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE WITH THIS CURRENT SITUATION AND NO FIX FOR THIS MAKE OF VEHICLES. I'M REQUESTING SOME BETTER ANSWER OTHER THAN "DON'T PUT A PASSENGER IN THAT SEAT" OR "DISENGAGE THE AIRBAG". I WOULD LIKE EITHER MY VEHICLE TO BE OUT OF MY HANDS FREE AND CLEAR OR SOME OTHER SOLUTION NOT PUTTING ME IN ANY MORE OF AN INCONVENIENCE. THIS IS A SEVERE ISSUE THAT COULD RESULT IN MANY PROBLEMS. THERE ARE NO PHOTOS OR MORE DETAILS AS A CONSUMER WE CAN NOT VIEW THE AIRBAG. I LIVE IN TEXAS WHERE CONDITIONS ARE HOT AND HUMID IN WHICH THE RECALL SPECIFICALLY STATES IS MORE OF A CAUSE FOR THE DETERIORATION. PLEASE CONTACT ME TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION, AND DOING NOTHING IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. AT THIS TIME THERE HAS BEEN NO COLLISION OR ISSUES, BUT AT THE POINT THERE MAY BE IT WILL BE TOO LATE.
