    Called classic chevy in sugarland a year ago asking about getting the airbags replaced. Was told i would be called when the parts get in. Called again today and was given the same answer. How can this be a safety issue if the parts are never in stock?

    This is a complaint about the cracks on my dash around the air bag. Over the past month they have grown and gotten worse, one is huge (about 7 inches long) and there's two more pieces in the corner about to fall out and one near the radio. I would just like gm to put a new dash in for free so i can cover it with a carpet dash and not have to worry about it. Thanks

    I find out that i have a recall for my truck for the airbags. The chevrolet recall personnel stated that there were no results to fix this issue. I can't sell this vehicle with a issue with the airbag. How long will it take general motors to make a decision on a repair for this problem? They've already had since 2016 to make a decision. The answer that i was given is not good enough. I want this fixed.

    I first received recall information in the mail pertaining to the airbags on my vehicle at the end of 2017. Around the same time the service airbag light on my dashboard appeared and has remained displayed since. I have periodically checked whether a remedy to the recall has been established, but to date there has not been one. I am now seeing commercials for attorney services regarding injuries due to defective…

    It's been over 2 years since the first notification for this recall and i'm still waiting for the replacement to be accomplished. The notification clearly notes that if the vehicle is located in a high humidity location the threat of the problem becomes much greater. I live in orange park fl and the humidity is high most of the year. I don't understand why my airbag recall has been delayed. Please take action to…

    Takata recall. This notification came in may of 2016 and this is still not resolved? So am i driving around with possibly a defective air bag that might severely injure or even kill me or a passenger? It should not take this long to "remedy" this issue, should have been resolved way before now.

    Takata recall the chevrolet dealership has not been able to replace our airbags because they have not received replacements. All they tell me is that they have been waiting for these to be manufactured since 2016!!! So what happens in the meantime? Do we drive around with these defective airbags hoping that they don't kill us? No one is giving us answers! The fact that this is dragging on for so long is ridiculous…
