There is a recall number 09184C that only pertains to certain states but I live in a wet state also not listed and the carpet under my seat held moisture and now my airbag control module totally disintegrated from being in moisture for so long, they won't accept my truck in for inspection or repair
Airbags deployed without collision or any bumps or anything. I was pulling out of parking space in public parking lot. I turned my wheel to the left and the airbags deployed.
The contact owned a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 70 MPH and making a right downhill turn, he crashed into the rail guard before impacting a tree where the vehicle came to a stop. No warning lights were illuminated. No air bags deployed. The contact was concerned about whether the air bags should have deployed for the type of impact experienced. The contact stated that the Driver's side seat belt had locked. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was deemed a total loss and towed to a local tow yard, where it remains. The contact fell unconscious due to the impact and was rushed to a local medical center via helicopter.

The passenger airbag randomly just blew up and destroyed my windshield are vision was impaired couldn’t see couldn’t hear cuz our ears where ringing and toxic chemicals and particles where flying around in the car from it blowing up. We had a 3 year old in the truck and my bestfriend. Are safety was definitely put at risk we where on the freeway and like I said we couldn’t see anything and windshield was completely shattered and none of us could hear a thing something terrible could have definitely went wrong.
Truck was purchased in June 8, 2021. I have had zero accidents , was assured it was not a salvage vehicle it displayed no warning lights I begin to received the notices, the warning light started to come on from time to time, took the truck to our local Gosche Chevy Dealer. I was informed that it has an airbag for a 2500 Truck and they will not replace it. I have not been in any accident with this vehicle. What am I to do, as I am a retired cancer /heart issues stricken senior citizen and this repair is not in my month to month budget and my only transportation for my medical appointments
My vehicle has a recall on it ,I no longer feel safe driving it so I will like to have my vehicle replace with a new vehicle, that doesn't have safety hazard or recall
The contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer to be repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V050000 (Air Bags); however, the contact was informed that the instrument panel failed to allow access to the odometer and the recall repair was denied. The dealer informed the contact that for the recall repair to be completed, an odometer reading was required. The contact stated that the instrument panel was functioning intermittently. The contact was concerned that the recall repair was not related to the odometer failure and provided the dealer with an approximate mileage; however, the recall remedy was still denied. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 178,002.
I started by vehicle and as soon as it started, I felt and heard a very loud explosion under the seat, and the seat belts retracted extremely tight. Then I noticed the airbag light on the dashboard. Smoke filled the cab of the truck. Then I realized the airbag module under the seat had exploded.
Went to my local chevy dealership for them to fix the recall for my passenger air bag, less than a year later the airbag light came back on. i went to have it looked at and they told me it would be $145 to even see if it was the same problem, so now i have service airbag light and the recall was never fixed?
The front passenger side air bag inflator ruptured sending particles and other debris throughout the passenger cabin while driving in city traffic, it is available for inspection, I feel like my safety and that of others was put at risk by the manufacturer not notifying me upon purchase, titling, and registration that this vehicle was the subject of a safety recall involving the air bags on this model, it posed a potentially life threatening risk to operate or be a passenger inside this vehicle and nothing has been inspected by anyone yet, it just happened a few hours ago, there was no warnings or messages prior to incident occuring unexpectedly. Something sounded as if it literally blew up inside the truck, thankfully I had no passengers at the time, it scared me badly, as I thought someone had hit me with their vehicle, after the explosion, the OnStar telephone symbol...
The contact's husband owns a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while her husband was attempting to start the vehicle, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle failed to start. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed that the air bag control module needed to be replaced; however, while the vehicle was parked at the independent mechanic, the driver's and passenger's side air bags deployed without impact. No injuries were sustained. A mobile mechanic then diagnosed the vehicle and discovered that there was no communication with the air bag module. The mechanic stated that the air bag module was corroded and filled with water, and the third brake light was cracked and leaking water due to inclement weather. The mobile mechanic determined that the air bag module and connectors needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was informed of NHTSA...
The dealership allegedly replaced the Takata airbag on the vehicle. Less than 50 miles later the "Service Airbag" dash light came on. When I took the vehicle back to the dealership they said "Yea, this happens a lot" They schedule an appointment to check it out. Their conclusion was that the two items were not related and that I would need to pay for parts and labor. They said the air bag sensor was bad. That dashboard light was never on before i took it in to the dealership. I spoke to Chevrolet customer service who stated that Dealerships are independent owner operators and since the item was closed in the recall data base that they couldn't do anything. Now I'm reaching out to NHTSA for help to fulfill the recall on the Airbag that you recalled for the safety of the public. It appears to me that they are...
