TAKATA RECALL. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET RECALLED BAGS REPLACED, I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE AN APPOINTMENT TO COMPLETE RECALL NOTICE. THE EXCUSE HAS BEEN THAT DUE TO LARGE NUMBER OF RECALLS, MY PARTICULAR AIR BAG WAS ON ORDER AND I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN THE INVENTORY IS AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN WAITING ALMOST 2 YEARS TO HAVE THE TAKATA AIRBAG REPLACED BUT THE DEALER CONTINUES TO STATE THERE ARE NO AIRBAGS AVAILABLE, I'VE CONTACTED A LOCAL CAR AUTOBODY REPAIR SHOP AND THEY DO NOT SEEM TO HAVE DIFICULTY OBTAINING REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS. WHY IS MY AUDI DEALER NOT ABLE TO.I ASKED FOR A LOANER CAR WHILE MY AUDI IS SITTING IN THE GARAGE AND THEY REFUSED. IS THIS RECALL REQUIRED OR NOT? IS THIS A DANGEROUS CONDITION OR NOT?
