Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Takata recall. It's been 2 years since I received the first notification. At that time, I contacted the dealer and they said that the recall was active but they were running out of parts to fix the problem. So, I contacted GM customer service and they said that takata was working on it and they would send a notification once the parts available. I saw the alert on dash board a few times but I was waiting for the notification until today 02-12-18. I was checking my correspondence and I found a notice from tk holdings inc. About the bankruptcy proceeding in japan. …”
