TAKATA RECALL MY CAR HAS BEEN UNDER RECALL FOR THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE AIRBAGS FOR OVER 2 YEARS NOW. I LIVE IN TEXAS WHICH IS IN ZONE A OF THE RECALL AND ACCORDING TO A DIAGRAM THAT MERCEDES SENT US WITH THE RECALL LETTER, THE TIME THE INFLATOR IS EXPECTED TO RUPTURE IS IN 6-9 YEARS. THIS CAR IS CURRENTLY 8 YEARS OLD WHICH WOULD PUT IT AT EXTREME RISK AND MERCEDES STILL DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS. THEY ALSO REFUSE TO OFFER A LOANER CAR. THEY RECENTLY STATED THAT A REPLACEMENT WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN LAST JUNE OF 2018 HOWEVER THEY HAVE NOW DELAYED THAT AGAIN TO DECEMBER 2018.

MY VEHICLE WAS RUNNING SUPERIOR, NO WARNING SIGNALS OR STRAINING WHEN POWERING ON. PARKED CAR THEN AN HOUR LATER TRIED TURNING VEHICLE ON AND WILL NOT TURN ON FOR ANY REASON JUST RADIO WORKED. FOUND OUT IT WAS STEERING MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED FOR A HEFTY $1100. HAD THE CAR FOR ONLY 3 MONTHS AND BARELY USED IT. I BELIEVE IT'S A RECALL ON THESE ISSUES.

TAKATA RECALL I'VE RECEIVED MULTIPLE NEW AVAILABILITY DATES FOR MY AIRBAG REPLACEMENTS SINCE 2016, BUT EACH TIME THE AVAILABILITY DATE IS PUSHED OUT. I'VE NOW BEEN STUCK WITH A CAR THAT IS UNSAFE AND UNSELLABLE DUE TO THESE PARTS NOT BEING AVAILABLE FOR YEARS. THE NEW DATE IS NOW "UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME".

A BROCKEN REAR SPRING WAS DISCOVERED WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING SURVICED BY AN INDEPENDENT SHOP HERE IN NORTHERN WISCONSIN. I WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THAT REPLACING SPRINGS ON MBS SUCH AS MINE IN AREAS SUCH AS HERE WHERE SALT IS USED ON WINTER ROADS IS NOT UNCOMMON.

THE STEERING WHEEL GOT LOCKED WHILE PARKING THE CAR AND THE CAR NEVER STARTS AGAIN.
