MANUFACTURER ISSUED AIRBAG RECALL IN 2016. IT IS THREE YEARS LATER WITH NO RESOLUTION. I FEEL THAT MY LIFE IS IN DANGER DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO IMMEDIATELY RESOLVE THIS SITUATION. RECALL NHTSA 16V381

"TAKATA RECALL" ONCE AGAIN I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO SCHEDULE SERVICE TO HAVE THE AIRBAG INFLATORS REPAIRED OR REPLACED AS INSTRUCTED BY THE RECALL NOTICE. I HAVE NOW BEEN TOLD THAT CHEVROLET HAS NO REMEDY AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL AND ARE CURRENTLY WAITING FOR ANALYSIS BY THE NHTSA OF CHEVROLETS INDEPENDENT TESTING WHICH INDICATES THE RECALL IS NOT NECESSARY. CHEVROLET STATES THE VEHICLE IS SAFE TO OPERATE. I GUESS THE PROOF WILL BE SEEN IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS IN AN ACCIDENT.
