2011 MERCEDES-BENZ C300 Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. I CONTACTED THE DEALER (MERCEDES BENZ OF SOUTH BAY) MORE THAN 1 YEAR AGO AND THEN AGAIN ON NOVEMBER 3, 2017. I WAS INFORMED THAT THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PART.

CANNOT REACH ANY DEALER TO FIX TO RECALLS ON MY CARE RECALL 1 : NHTSA RECALL NUMBER , 16V081 , SUMMARY: CERTAIN MERCEDES-BENZ VEHICLES AND ONE FCA MODEL ARE EQUIPPED WITH DRIVER-SIDE FRONT AIRBAGS PROVIDED BY THE SUPPLIER TK HOLDINGS INC. ("TAKATA"). ON JANUARY 25, 2016 TAKATA FILED A DEFECT INFORMATION REPORT WITH NHTSA ANNOUNCING A POTENTIAL DEFECT IN SOME OF THE SUBJECT INFLATORS. 2ND RECALL NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 16V363 SUMMARY CERTAIN MERCEDES-BENZ VEHICLES ARE EQUIPPED WITH PASSENGER-SIDE FRONT AIRBAGS PROVIDED BY THE SUPPLIER TK HOLDINGS INC. ("TAKATA"). ON MAY 16, 2016 TAKATA FILED A DEFECT INFORMATION REPORT WITH NHTSA ANNOUNCING A POTENTIAL DEFECT IN SOME OF THE SUBJECT INFLATORS. BASED UPON TAKATA'S INFORMATION TO DATE

TTAKATA RECALL: NOTHING HAS HAPPENED WITH MY VEHICLE BECAUSE I DON'T DRIVE IT MUCH. I AM AFRAID. WHY?. BECAUSE FOR ALMOST TWO ( 2 ) YEARS NOW, CUSTOMERS HAVE BEEN WAITING ( AND MOST ARE DRIVING THEIR CARS FREQUENTLY) FOR A " FIX " FOR THE DANGEROUS PROBLEM, TO NO AVAIL. WHEN DO WE GET JUSTICE. NHTSA SHOULD PRESSURE TAKATA AND MERCEDES BENZ TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. WHAT AYE YOU WAITING FOR-DEATHS TO INNOCENT PERSONS?. PLEASE THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED.
