TAKATA RECALL. LETTER SAYS MY CAR MIGHT KILL ME OR PASSENGERS BUT THERE IS NO REMEDY. WFT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH A CAR THAT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE. THE AUTHORIZED DEALER IS UNABLE TO FIX IT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I WILL BE CONTACTING A LAWYER NEXT. THEY HAVE KNOWS ABOUTTHJIS FOR YEARS AND ARE JSUT NOW NOTIFYING ME. SOUNDS LIKE A GREAT LAWSUIT.

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS NOTIFIED ON JAN 10 2016 REGARDING THE RECALL ON MY CAR. TODAY IS 2/14/2019 AND REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS ARE STILL UNAVAILABLE!!!! IT'S BEEN 3 YEARS. I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS CONSIDERED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME!

TAKATA RECALL - THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL (NHTSA 18V043) WAS INITIATED JANUARY 10, 2016. IT IS NOW 3 YEARS LATER AND THE RECALL STATUS IS STILL "RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE". THIS NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED FOR CONSUMER SAFETY. THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT DOING THEIR DUE DILIGENCE.

TAKATA RECALL: MERCEDES BENZ KEEPS POSTPONING THE DATE WHEN THEY "WILL GET PARTS." IT'S BEEN YEARS AND NOW THEY SAY THEY CAN'T FIX IT UNTIL 2020.

PROBLEMS WITH DRIVESHAFT BREAKING. I WAS LEAVING THE PARKING LOT AND THE WHEEL STARTED MAKING A LOUD SQUEAKING NOISE. I WAS ONLY DRIVING A ABOUT 10-15 MILES. AS I PULLED OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AND STARTED TO GO FASTER THE NOISE GOT LOUDER. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. THE NEXT DAM I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THAT DRIVESHAFT WAS BROKEN.
