TAKATA RECALL... I AM GETTING THE RUN AROUND ON MY AIRBAGS. MY AIRBAG RECALL HAS BEEN PENDING FOR YEARS... THIS IS A 2011 CAR, SHOULD NOT STILL BE PENDING.

TAKATA RECALL. MY COMPLAINT IS ALMOST 3 YEARS OPEN RECALL AND THEY CANT JUST REPLACE THE AIR BAG MODULE.

TAKATA RECALL THIS MERCEDES RECALL WAS INITIATED IN JUNE 2016 AND PRIORITY WAS GIVEN TO OLDER CARS IN WARMER CLIMATES. WE LIVE IN FLORIDA AND WE HAVE A 2011 E350 CONVERTIBLE. TODAYS DATE IS AUG 4TH 2018 OVER TWO YEARS LATER, SEVERAL MISSED DEADLINES HAVE COME AND GONE WITH VAGUE EXCUSES ABOUT AIRBAG AVAILABILITY. WHEN IS THE NHTSA GOING TO INTERVENE? I JUST CALLED MY LOCAL ORANGE PARK MB DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD MAYBE BY DECEMBER THE AIRBAGS WILL ARRIVE. SORRY, I JUST DO NOT BELIEVE THEM BASED ON THEIR TRACK RECORD. WHAT IF THE AIR BAG GOES OFF AND MY WIFE AND 11YR OLD SON ARE KILLED? THIS IS A LIFE THREATENING ISSUE, BASICALLY THE CARS COULD KILL THE DRIVERS. SURELY THIS IS WHAT NHTSA IS SETUP FOR? DOES THIS AGENCY HAVE ANY POWERS TO ACT AND PROTECT CONSUMERS? PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE MORE PEOPLE DIE.
