Chevrolet Avalanche 2009 — Problemas reportados

The passenger side air bag was replaced under a current recall (N212328790) however, once they fixed the issue at Love Chevy (Inverness, FL), the air bag light stayed on. It has never shut off and after speaking with the dealership as well as Chevrolet, they refuse to fix the issue they caused. I do not know if the recall has actually been fixed. Additionally, I am unable to refuel appropriately due to another recall (that my vehicle apparently isn't a part of), however, based on the amount of people that have the same problem, it should be a wider issued recall. This is for Chevy recall # 08411 for the Fuel System Control Module. It affects the charcoal canister, along with purge value and corresponding lines. Depending on how bad, charcoal canister needs replacement, even possibly the lines, as well as the gas tank. Very expensive fix that Chevy refuses to address. This is a common problem that mechanics see with these vehicles.

I purchased the 2009 Chevrolet Avalanche new in October 2009. While in warranty I noticed the dashboard was cracking and took it to the dealer, Four Stars Auto, in Henrietta, Texas. At that time I was told they would order a new dash board and replace it. I took the truck in for replacement of the dash board on the scheduled date. After the truck was out of warranty the dash board cracked again in the same place. I suspect the dash was repaired and painted and not replaced, but I have no proof so I did not contact the dealer. Since that time I have learned this has been an issue with other owners of GM trucks and nothing can be done about it other than replacing the dash, which is a very expensive repair for someone that is retired and on a fixed income. My dash board has now cracked in at least four places and seems to be getting worse. I have heard this could cause issues with the deployment of the airbags, not to mention diminished resale value.

MY TRUCK IS ONE OF THE MANY WITH THE CRACKING OF THE DASH IN MULTIPLE PLACES. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN STORED IN A GARAGE OR IN SHADED AREAS MOST OF ITS LIFE AND HAS THE DEFECTIVE DASH BOARD THAT IS FALLING APART. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF A AIRBAG EVER HAS TO DEPLOY, THIS DASH COULD CAUSE SHRAPNEL TO EITHER PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG OR HARM A PASSENGER. I HAVE ASKED GM DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE AND THEY QUOTED THOUSANDS FOR WHAT APPEARS TO BE A PROVEN DEFECT.

RECALL #N212328790 FOR AIR BAG ,NHTSA # 21V053 . SERVICE DONE BY DEALER ,BUT AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT STILL ILLUMINATED , MECHANIC SAID BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY WITH LIGHT ON .WHAT WAS PURPOSE OF RECALL IF WE STILL HAVE NO OPERATING AIR BAG?

I KEEP GETTING TOLD I HAVE A TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL AND CHEVROLET TELLS ME THEY AREN'T GOING TO FIX IT. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET IT REPAIRED. THEY SAY IT'S SAFE, BUT IF IT'S SAFE WHY CAN'T THEY GET THE AIRBAG RECALL RESCINDED?

I SAW IN TELEVISION THE AD SAYING THAT I WOULD CHECK MY VINYL NUMBER BECAUSE THERE IS A DEFECT IN MY CAR'S AIR BAGS FOR THE MANUFACTURER END

MY STABILITY CONTROL AND TRACTION CONTROL KEEP TURNING OFF. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN AND THE MECHANIC SAYS IT IS THE STEERING ANGEL SENSOR. THEY CANNOT FIX IT BECAUSE THE PART IS BACK ORDERED NATION WIDE. HE SAID IT IS USED ON LOTS OF GM PLATFORMS. SO NOW AT VARIOUS TIMES I HAVE NO STABILITY CONTROL OR TRACTION CONTROL AND CANNOT GET THE TRUCK FIXED.

TAKATA RECALL: RECEIVED NOTICE MONTHS AGO THAT I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. NO CONTACT SINCE. DID CHECK WITH DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD NOT PARTS AVAILABLE. THIS WAS OVER 2 YEARS AGO AND STILL NO NOTICE. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE I NOW HAVE A GRANDCHILD DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. IS HE SAFE??

DASH IS CRACKED BY THE PASSENGER FRONT AIRBAG. TRUCK ONLY HAS 72K MILES BUT DASH CRACKED PREVIOUS TO 50K MILES. I BELIEVE THIS CRACK COULD EITHER CAUSE SHARDS FROM THE DASH OR THE AIRBAG TO FAIL IF DEPLOYED.

MY 2009 AVALANCHE LTZ HAS A DASH THAT HAS CRACKED COMPLETELY IN HALF, PLUS IS CRACKING ON THE AIRBAG PASSENGER SURROUND. MY CONCERN OTHER THAN SHRAPNEL IN THE EVENT THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS IS LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL WHEN THE DASH PIECES LODGE THEMSELVES BETWEEN THE STEERING WHEEL WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THE DASH HAS NEVER BEEN ABUSED OR DAMAGED BY THE OWNER IN ANY WAY, AND THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. ALMOST WITHOUT EXCEPTION I HAVE NOTICED THIS DEFECT IN EVERY TRUCK OF THIS TYPE. PLEASE HAVE AN AGENT CONTACT ME IF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS NECESSARY. MY LOCAL DEALER WANTS $1600 TO REPAIR THEIR DEFECT.

TAKATA RECALL

PULLED OUT FROM THE PARKING LOT AT WORK ONTO THE ROAD, AFTER TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 100' THE STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG AND SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE TRUCK DID NOT HIT ANYTHING NOR WAS IT HIT BY ANYTHING.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING ON ITS OWN JUST LIKE ALL SIMILAR VEHICLES OF THE SAME MODEL YEARS FROM CHEVY AND GMC. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR WHEN AIRBAGS ARE DEPLOYED.

TAKATA RECALL

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A NOTICE IN THE MAIL TODAY OF A PENDING BANKRUPTCY FOR TAQUITA AND MY AIRBAGS ARE ON THE LIST TO BE REMEDIED BUT NOBODY HAS A REMEDY YET I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS TOLD BY THE AUTHORIZED GM DEALERSHIP THAT THE RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE WAS FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG, BUT THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE GENERAL MOTORS HAS NOT RELEASED INSTRUCTIONS TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. THEY ADVISED ME TO WAIT UNTIL I RECEIVED FURTHER NOTIFICATION. I RECEIVED A NOTICE SAYING THAT TAKATA HAD FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY AND I NEEDED TO IMMEDIATELY SCHEDULE A REPAIR WITH AN AUTHORIZED DEALER.

TAKATA RECALL GM RECALL 49151 FOR FAULTY AIRBAGS IS UNABLE TO BE PERFORMED N MY VEHICLE AT DEALERSHIP DUE TO PARTS BEING UNAVAILABLE IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE! I'VE ATTEMPTED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT EVERY 3-4 MONTHS SINCE APRIL 2016 WITH NO AVAIL. RECALL NOTICE WAS RECEIVED BY ME JULY 2016! I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO BE HAD OR ORDERED IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. I WANT IT DONE!

MY DASHBOARD HAS 2 CRACKS EXTENDING FROM EACH CORNER OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG PANEL. I HAVE SEEN HUNDREDS OF THE SAME TYPE OF CRACKAGE AND I BELIEVE THAT CHEVROLET SHOULD SEND OUT A RECALL TO REPAIR ALL OF THE CRACKED DASHBOARDS. I BELIEVE THAT THERE MAYBE AN ISSUE IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYS.
