My truck was made in MI and was affected. As we're always warned, I put it back to stock before going in. I just left the unit/pod on the dash and unplugged it so they wouldn't have to touch any parts of "my stuff"!

oh man they don't have to remove the dash....i was on the list and its a small harness somewhere either in the steering wheel or below it....its a faulty harness that causes wires to touch and BOOM...airbag goes off...it took like 5 min.

I just got my letter in the mail a few days ago.
Anyone know how long it takes? It is my only vehicle...

Half a day depending on how many they have to service.
Make an appointment and go as early as you can. I took
My truck in at 7 in the morning and got it back at 12 noon.
Good luck.
