TAKATA RECALL. UNTIL NOW, THIS HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. IT HAS BEEN THREE YEARS SINCE THE FIRST RECALL CAME OUT. IN MY OPINION, THAT IS WAY TOO LONG TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF. NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET TO MY VEHICLE, BUT I THINK IT HAS BEEN WAY TOO LONG THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO REPLACE THESE. MFG. RECALL N0. 2018030009 AND 2018030011

TANAKS RECALL JUST GOT ANOTHER NOTICE HOW FAILURE OF REPLACEMENT CAN CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. THE REPLACEMENT IS NOT YET AVAILABLE

THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL IS APPROXIMATELY 4 YEARS OLD NOW AND MERCEDES HAS REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. AND I LIVE IN A HIGH RISK AREA OF SOUTH FLORIDA. I GET A LETTER PER YEAR FORM MERCEDES STATING THEY ARE LOOKING INTO IT. I HAVE CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER MANY TIMES. EACH TIME I CONTACT MERCEDES THEY REPLY THEY ARE LOOKING INTO IT AND HAVE NO INFORMATION. FRIENDS WITH FORDS CHEVYS AND ALMOST ANY OTHER CAR BRANDS GOT LOANER CARS AND THEN THEIR VEHICLE REPAIRED. MERCEDES IS IGNORING THE ISSUE, SHOULD BE FINED VERY HEAVILY, AND MADE TO FIX THEIR CARS IMMEDIATELY. PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW AND WHAT I CAN DO INCLUDING IF I CAN SUE

TAKATA RECALL. SEVERAL YEARS AGO I WAS INFORMED THAT MY MB VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN THE CARS IMPACTED WITH FAULTY TAKATA AIRBAGS FOR BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER. I JUST CALLED MBUSA AND WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY UPDATED INFORMATION AS TO WHEN SAFE AIRBAGS WILL BE INSTALLED IN MY CAR. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE NOW THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE IN FEAR FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS...AND NO ONE KNOWS FOR HOW MUCH LONGER. I WANT A MB LOANER CAR, FREE OF CHARGE TO ME...TO DRIVE UNTIL THE TIME THAT MY AIRBAG RECALL IS CORRECTED. AND I WOULD LIKE THAT CORRECTION TO OCCUR QUICKLY.
