TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM BMW DATED MARCH 2016 NOTIFYING ME OF RECALL. LAST WEEK, I WAS AT MY BMW SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND INQUIRED WHEN I COULD BRING MY VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIR. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND IT IS NOT KNOWN AT THIS TIME WHEN THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE. I FIND IT INEXCUSABLE THAT I AM WAITING FOR OVER A YEAR TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION AND IN THE MEANTIME, BMW IS POTENTIALLY IGNORING THIS RECALL AND I AM DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT IS ADMITTEDLY UNSAFE WHILE CLAIMING THAT THEY ARE CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY.
