TAKATA RECALL I HAVE CONTACTED ATLANTA AUDI SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO GET MY AIRBAG REPLACED, AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS OVER IEMAIL: "REGARDING REPLACEMENT PARTS, I WISH I HAD A DATE FOR YOU'AND FOR ME! THIS RECALL HAS BEEN OUT SINCE THE SPRING OF 2016. TAKATA TOOK SEVERAL MONTHS TO PROVIDE REPLACEMENT PARTS IN 2016/2017 AND WE REPLACED MANY. SHORTLY AFTER, THEY SHUT DOWN IN 2017 DUE TO BANKRUPTCY. FROM THAT POINT, AUDI OF AMERICA TOOK OVER AND HAVE HAD NEW PARTS MADE, WHICH HAS TAKEN SEVERAL MONTHS. THEY'RE STARTING DISTRIBUTION THIS YEAR. IT'S BEEN QUITE THE PROCESS! PARTS HAVE BEEN INCREDIBLY LIMITED AND I AM UNABLE TO PROVIDE A STOCK DATE. YOU'RE WELCOME TO REACH OUT PERIODICALLY, OTHERWISE, WE'LL KEEP YOU ON OUR CALL BACK LIST. FOR MORE INFORMATION REGARDING THE RECALL, FEEL FREE TO CONTACT AUDI CUSTOMER RELATIONS." I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE TO NOT HAVE PARTS FOR A FATAL RECALL LIKE THIS?

I RECEIVED A NOTICE OF RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE DUE TO POSSIBILITY OF LEAKING FUEL. CALLED THE DEALER TO COMPLETE THE RECALL IN NOVEMBER 2016 ALONG WITH AN REGULAR MAINTENANCE, TOOK THE CAR IN AND WAS NOT ADVISED OF ANY ISSUES WITH COMPLETING EITHER SERVICE. PICKED THE CAR UP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE PART REQUIRED FOR THE RECALL WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND THAT I WOULD BE CALLED BY THE DEALER ONCE THE PART BECAME AVAILABLE SO THE REPAIR COULD BE COMPLETED. IT IS NOW MARCH OF 2018 AND I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE A CALL TO SCHEDULE THE REPAIR OF THE RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL UNABLE TO EVEN GET ANY DETAILS ON HOW/WHEN TO GET THIS REMIDIED BY EITHER THE DEALER OR AUDI OF AMERICA. BOTH SAY THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL ME, THE DEALER TELLS ME TO CALL AUDI OF AMERICA AND AUDI TELLS ME TO CALL THE DEALER. IT'S BEEN INFORMATION BLACKOUT FROM BOTH OF THEM. THIS WHOLE SAGA HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A VERY EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, YEARS NOW.

TACIT RECALL: I HAVE TRIED UNSUCCESSFULLY TO GET MY CLOSEST DEALERSHIP TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE BECAUSE THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT THEY CANNOT GET THE PART. MEANWHILE I'M TAKING A RISK EACH TIME I DRIVE MY CAR. NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE. I HAVE TALKED TO AUDI USA WHO PUT ME IN TOUCH WITH A TAKATA SPECIALIST AND THEY PUT ME BACK IN TOUCH WITH AUDI OF MELBOURNE FLORIDA. I GET THE SAME ANSWER, THE PART IS HARD TO GET AND ONCE WE RECEIVE THE PART THEY WILL CONTACT ME. HOW LONG MUST THIS GO ON. I HAVE IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER THE SERVICE ADVISOR'S I HAVE TALKED TO AND WHEN. I'AM STILL WAITING ON THIS DEALERSHIP TO CONTACT ME TELLING THEY HAVE RECEIVED THE PART.
