"TAKATA RECALL" - AT THIS TIME NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. APPROXIMATELY 6-8 MONTHS AGO WE RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE RECALL. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE MGR. (KIRK IRVINE) AT JEEP-CHRYSLER OF ONTARIO REGARDING THIS RECALL. AT THAT TIME WE WERE NOTIFIED THAT THEY WERE STILL AWAITING PARTS TO HANDLE THE RECALL. ON 2/23/16 I SPOKE WITH WILLIAM OF NHTSA AND WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER (10837780). ON 3/2/16 I CONTACTED WITH NICK AT AT THE CHRYSLER RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER AND WAS TOLD PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. I THEN CONTACTED NHTSA AND WAS GIVEN THE PHONE NUMBER TO DISCUSS HAVING THE AIRBAG INFLATOR REMOVED OR DISENGAGED. I WAS GIVEN DIFFERENT CRITERIA THAT THIS WOULD BE PERMISSIBLE. HOWEVER, WE DON'T SEEM TO FALL INTO ANY OF THESE CRITERIA. WE LIVE IN SO. CALIF. WE HAVE A TRIP PLANNED TO SEVERAL PARTS OF TEXAS IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR. BUT, WITH THE SAFETY ISSUE OF THIS VEHICLE (IT IS AN RV CONVERTED BY ROADTREK), WE DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT TO TEXAS OR USING IT IN ANY WAY HERE AT HOME. BASED THE FACT THAT INDIVIDUALS HAVE ALREADY LOST THEIR LIVES DUE TO THE PART NEEDED, I FEEL I SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE THE DEVICE REMOVED OR DISENGAGED AT THE MANUFACTURERS EXPENSE. I DO NOT FEEL I AM BEING UNREASONABLE. I PAID PLENTY OF MONEY FOR THIS VEHICLE AND WOULD LIKE TO FEEL SAFE WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. A LONER VEHICLE WOULD BE OUT OF THE QUESTION BECAUSE IT IS AN RV. OF COURSE, IF CHRYSLER OR TAKATA WOULD LIKE TO PAY FOR OUR AIRFARE, RENTAL CAR EXPENSE, ETC. FOR TEXAS, I WOULD BE HAPPY TO TAKE THEM UP ON THAT. THE BOTTOM LINE IS, I NEED THIS RESOLVED BY REPLACEMENT PARTS INSTALLED OR THE DEFECTIVE PARTS REMOVED.
