General motors sent me a recall letter with a recall # of 49151 back in july of 2016. This addressed a defective takata airbag which could deploy and kill myself or a family member or cause terrible injuries to anyone in close proximity of the defective airbags. I have called general motors approx. (6) times and I have not received any satisfactory results that would resolve the airbag problem or to repair the defective airbag. There has been a period of two (2) years and eight (8) months of time that has expired with no repairs or resolves of the problem. This lack of caring and failure to act IS putting myself as well as my entire family at jeopardy of death or debilitating injury due to a defective takata airbag. I urge those in a position of authority to act quickly and decisively to correct this problem as soon as possible...'''''''...

Takata recall started vehicle on 2-1-19 and after turning ignition on passenger air bag exploded out and the side panels followed. Vehicle was in park and had not been driven in a few days. It all happened extremely fast but I saw glovebox burst open and sparks fly out and the airbag sounded like an explosion! Scared to death! I jumped out unsure what was going on and the side panel bag grazed my face! Could have ended badly if happened while driving.

Power steering fluid IS pouring out of the truck. My mechanic informed me that it IS coming from the rack and pinion and that there IS a tsb associated with this common problem. When I contacted gm they stated that the tsb covered the make, but that my vin was not covered under the tsb and no further information could be provided. Even though it was the same year, make and model covered by the tsb.

I wish to add complaint for the dashboard crack issue near the passenger airbag, and suspect the airbag support/function may be compromised. I also have received many 'paper cuts' from inside door handles chrome over the years but was never contacted by gm or offered warranty replacement as your website states they did - I am the original owner of the vehicle.

When we purchased the vehicle approx. 3.5 years ago, it had a small crack in the dashboard. Last december, it was noticed that the crack had gotten much bigger, and now a second crack has been noted. This IS becoming a major safety concern, as the dash may shatter in a front-end collision with airbag deployment. Upon doing research on;ine, I found that I am not alone. There are thousands of reports of similar issues among similar years and models. Please help me keep my family safe by requiring gm to provide a fix or replacement. Thank you!

04/27/18 fri morning driving home I hit a median with driver front tire, inwhich all my airbags deployed imediatly including side airbags and caused such a sudden panic distraction that I swerved and flipped my vehicle. I was pulled from the wreck luckily and taken by ambulance to the hospitol. My truck was completely totalled. My vehicle was in motion the entire time until it stopped rolling leaving the final position upside down. There was no reason these air bags should have deployed and they caused me to nearly lose my life. Normally jus a tire would blow in such a hit from tire. The first ones to deploy were all four window airbags then soon as I flipped the others went off and I was knocked unconscious. I was not aware there was a recall inplace and just recently bought this truck in jan. 2018.

Cracked dash after about 65000 miles neat airbag. Airbag light on. I am in contact through social media with thousands of gm customers who have and are experiencing the very same cracks in the same places which denotes a defect in the dash and supports or lack there of. Look for facebook group " cacked dash 2007-2015. Check out the pictures from all over the us involving every gm suc, truck etc. The cracks are consistent in locations and paths.. I am very concerned about my air bag deploying randomly. Don't know if this will affect takata recall or not. Cracks randomly occur on gm vehicles regardless of age or mileage. which I believe points to this being a defect in manufacturing and assembly. I need gm to fix this problem... Uploading pics. Check the site mentioned above and you'll see the same issue across the board in every picture shared. Help.

The investigated concern involved chrome plating on interior door handles that could peel or separate from the plastic base material.This de-lamination could result in a sharp edge and pose a risk of laceration.In some cases, consumers reported minor hand/skin lacerations.Of these reported injuries, the vast majority of injuries were to adults.Ninety percent of claims associated with interior door handle de-lamination were related to the front doors.In addition to the above Tahoe/Yukon vehicles, other GMT 900 series C/K vehicles (Avalanche, Escalade, Sierra, Silverado, and Suburban) have a trim level that utilizes the chrome plated interior door handles and were included in the analysis.The resultant population group had a total of 746 complaint reports with 309 injury incidents and 43,619 unique VIN regular warranty claims over a combined 451,745 vehicle population.The door handle supplier was changed in September 2006 with new tooling and process in place by October 2006.The base population prior to the September 2006 vendor change accounted for the bulk (or 89%) of all complaints and comparable injury reports and warranty claims.Due to the nature of the failure (thin chrome plating peeling off the door handle), only minor hand/skin laceration injuries similar to a paper cut were recorded.All but a few did not require professional medical treatment such as surgical or liquid sutures (i.e. stitches).Less than 10% of injury reports had specifically involved a 3-10 year old child.This was due to the fact that 90% of the claims were associated with door handles located in the front seating area (where the window glass panels usually have less solar tinting than rear window glass panels) where children are not normally seated. In July 2010, GM issued a Special Coverage Policy (SCP 09239) on the base vehicles to extend the warranty coverage to 10 years/100k miles.Recent data indicate that the base population complaint and injury reporting have subsided since the implementation of the SCP campaign.In June 2011, GM added the remaining interim population (Sep-Oct 2006) to the SCP.A safety-related defect has not been identified at this time and further use of agency resources does not appear to be warranted.Accordingly, this investigation is closed.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist.The agency will monitor this issue and reserves the right to take further action if warranted by the circumstances.
