Description of the problem	My current 2008 chevrolet hybrid tahoe, vin# [xxx] has airbags included in the takata airbag recall, manufacturer recall number 2049152, nhtsa recall number16v383. The nhtsa has deemed these airbags have caused 16 deaths, and hundreds of serious injuries. Gm/chevrolet has stated the airbags are "safe" despite the nhtsa recall. I have contacted the nhtsa and they stated that the airbags in my vehicle need to be replaced, and in the interim until they are replaced no one should be allowed to ride in the front passenger seat of the vehicle due to potential risk of death from the airbag exploding without reason. This is an absolutely absurd, belligerent and unacceptable business practice gm is being allowed to engage in. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
