2009 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 Airbags Problems

Been getting notification post cards about this airbag recall and called my dealer in June 2023 about getting the work done, and have not heard back from them to schedule anything. 11 months later I talked to them, and they say the part is hard to get, and they are waiting on the parts. Now I am 14 months past the time I called to schedule repairs and still no parts. I don't think this is being handled in a timely manner. Still driving around with a recalled airbag.

MY 2009 SILVERADO 2500HD SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY, HIT A BUMP AND IT GOES OUT, COMES ON AGAIN MANY TIMES DURING DRIVING.

THE CHEVROLET DEALER SAYS THAT I MUST LEAVE THE TRUCK THERE BECAUSE IT WILL BE LENGTHY IN TROUBLESHOOTING WHICH WILL BE COSTLY ACCORDING TO THEM.

NOT THE ACTUAL AIR BAG, BUT THE PLASTIC DASH AROUND IT. KNOWN CRACKING IN THE DASH WILL CAUSE IT TO SHATTER DURING AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT CAUSING POSSIBLE INJURIES DUE TO PIECES BECOMING PROJECTILES. GM IS WELL AWARE OF THIS DEFECT IN THE MANUFACTURE OF THE DASH.

"TAKATA RECALL" RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE BY MAIL DATED JULY 2016 REGARDING THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG INFLATORS CAN MALFUNCTION. OVER THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF I HAVE CONTACTED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS IN MY AREA FOR A REPLACEMENT. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS AN ONGOING COURT BATTLE WHERE TAKATA CLAIMS THAT THEIR IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE ORIGINAL INSTALLED INFLATOR. THE DEALERSHIPS TOLD ME THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE REPLACEMENT PARTS AND WOULD NOT INSTALL A REPLACEMENT PART UNTIL THE COURT CASE WAS SETTLED. NO INJURIES HAVE HAPPENED YET BECAUSE THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. HOWEVER I FEAR THAT SOMEONE MAY BE INJURED OR KILLED IF AN ACCIDENT IN THIS VEHICLE OCCURS.
