I dont think so

My service airbag msg was the front left impact sensor. Replaced. No more message.

Like the OP, I got one of these a week or so ago and finally decided to read it, since I had already been notified of the airbag recall for one of my cars.

This notice isn’t specific to airbag replacement. I’m not a lawyer, but as I read mine – which looks identical – it’s a notice that Proof of Claim for injury, wrongful-death, or monetary damages must be filed by a certain date, due to the Takata companies listed filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Obviously if you have a claim against one of the Takata companies listed you might want to consult with an attorney if you haven’t already.

The airbag replacement notice is different and, if you received a notice similar to this one, you should also receive a replacement notice specific to a vehicle.

Gotta love the way they make the notice and the print so small.

Got the same card the other day and had checked my VIN a few months back regarding this recall.

This article is pretty interesting and has a time line by year and date of reports about the Takata company and cars affected.

Thank you for this info! I did not know my Yukon had a Takata air bag! Just called the dealer, and no remedy as of yet, as stated below by others... This sucks!

Same, had no idea! I checked my VIN also which showed no open recalls, does that mean we're impacted? What a pain.
