My son was driving home from work down Highway 288 in Houston and the car just died and did not start. The door locks were going up and down like it was trying to reset and lock the car. I had it fixed and they said it was the fuel pump was out. We had the fuel pump fixed and a new battery put in. Would this cause it to loose power immediately and the door locks to go crazy?

If the propellant degrades to a certain level, the inflators may rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries. the airbag indicator has come on. I own two cadillac vehicles and coincidentally they have the same recall and, the same indicator light has illuminated on both vehicles. I am concerned that this recall IS a potential hazard. We live in florida where it's hot, so we constantly drive in the sun. For both vehicles to have a recall and now both indicators for airbags are illuminated I believe that this may be apart of this takata issue.
At a stoplight on an overpass the car shut off and wouldn't restart for 10 minutes. After it restarted and we continued to drive and get on the highway. The car shutoff while driving 60 mph on the highway. Power steering was completely lost. We were able to coast to the side of the highway. After 5 minutes or so car restarted. There was a cadillac dealer within 10 miles so we continued on to try and get there. the car shutoff again getting off the highway on the exit ramp and again lost power steering. again waited for 5 minutes the car restarted. Same thing happened pulling into the dealer parking lot. We were lucky there wasn't much traffic on the highway or I would imagine we could have very likely caused a bad accident with the car shutting off at 60 mph with no steering. We were in a rural area where the highway death toll IS high. I have read numerous cases of other escalade owners having this same problem.

Takata recall hennessy cadillac at 3377 satellite blvd, duluth, ga 30096 has told me that they don't have the part in yet to fix it. I received a recall letter back in 2016 and they still don't have in the part? why not? I am afraid to be in this car and I live in a hot state, georgia. I want it fixed asap!!! please help me make this happen.
Takata recall. I have made several attempts to have the airbag replaced based on the recall. I contacted bentley cadiillac today at 1:02 pm, spoke with "jd" and was told that they do not have that part and they can not get it because takata went bankrupt.
Takata recall - have made numerous attempts to clarify recall at dealership with no conclusion. Dealership says no recall and replacement IS available although we have received information that the vehicle IS affected by the takata defect. In a letter re: tk holdings inc it specifically reads in bold script, "if your vehicle contains a defective or potentially defective airbag inflator and IS under recall, contact your nearest dealership immediately to schedule a free repair." dealership says they no nothing about this. I read that gm had until august 2017 to remedy situation but have not heard results.
Takata recall. I have two kids and am scared to drive my car with this recall. its been over 2 years since the first contact with gm. at that time they said they would follow up with me and still never have. I checked the status on their website and it says: recall status: incomplete. Remedy not yet available not sure what to do. Please help!
I called all the dealers listed on your web site to have the air bags replaced but they said they dont have the part and cant get it rk chev told me to go to a cadillac dealer and they dont have it so what do I do, also the engine has aticking noise sinces the time I got the car and they say its nothing but it still doing it ticking and there are a lot of people with the same complaint

Takata recall. contacted by crestview cadillac - said no replacement and the recall may go away. mk smith chevrolet - said they couldn't obtain replacements.
NHTSA’s Office of Defects Investigation opened these reviews into vehicles including this one.
From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.pdf.Consequently, all frontal inflators using propellant 2004 that do not contain a "desiccant" (a substance that traps and holds moisture) in US vehicles are under recall. These "non-desiccated" inflators either have been or are required to be replaced.In some cases, the remedy part for these recalled inflators was, or will be, an inflator using either propellant 2004 or 2004L that does contain a desiccant. None of these "desiccated" remedy parts (which were installed in older model year vehicles) are currently under recall for a degradation concern. Certain subsets of desiccated PSAN inflators using propellant 2004 for use as original equipment, however, have been recalled for a degradation concern. All Takata inflators produced with propellant 2004L contain desiccant, and none of these desiccated inflators using propellant 2004L are under recall for a degradation concern. There have been no reported field ruptures in any non-recalled desiccated PSAN inflators.It is understood that desiccants fully saturate at some threshold, at which point any additional moisture will not be captured. This means the degradation process observed in non-desiccated inflators using propellant 2004 may also occur in non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004, assuming additional moisture enters the inflator and high temperature cycling occurs. Based on available information, desiccant saturation can occur within the first five years in the worst environments, and the time required for full saturation is affected by multiple factors. While no present safety risk has been identified, further work is needed to evaluate the future risk of non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004.Three entities -- Takata (now known as TK Global), the Independent Testing Coalition, and Exponent -- have been studying the long-term behavior of Takata desiccated PSAN inflators using propellant 2004L (as well as 2004) in the presence of moisture and temperature cycling. The research efforts, which include development of predictive modeling techniques and field sample analysis, are ongoing. To date, none of the researchers have identified field evidence showing that propellant 2004L is undergoing a degradation process that leads to aggressive deployment and potential rupture. However, the time in service of such inflators remains short compared to that of the inflators using propellant 2004. Further study is needed to assess the long-term safety of desiccated inflators using propellant 2004L.The Office of Defects Investigation is opening this investigation to examine whether a safety defect related to propellant degradation exists in non-recalled desiccated PSAN frontal inflators manufactured by Takata. This investigation will require extensive information on Takata production processes and surveys of inflators in the field. Lists of recall actions that may have used desiccated PSAN inflators as remedy parts, as well as the makes and models originally manufactured with them, is available with the downloadable version of this document (see nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=EA21002 -- note this information is subject to change/revision as the investigation proceeds). This investigation does not supersede EA15-001, which remains open.
