2010 MERCEDES-BENZ GLK350 Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. HAVING RECEIVED NOTICE OF TAKATA FILING FOR CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY, I CONTACTED MY LOCAL MERCEDES DEALERSHIP ASKING IF THEY WERE DOING REPAIRS FOR THE TWO TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALLS MERCEDES ISSUED IN 2016. THEY SAID THEY WILL NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE UNTIL TAKATA PROVIDES A REMEDY. IT SEEMS HIGHLY UNLIKELY THIS WILL HAPPEN SO WE ARE LEFT DRIVING A VEHICLE WITH A DEFECT KNOWN TO RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ GLK350. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 16V081000 (AIR BAGS) AND 16V363000 (AIR BAGS). THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE OVER A YEAR AGO. THE DEALER (PENSKE MERCEDES-BENZ OF WEST COVINA, 2010 E GARVEY AVE S, WEST COVINA, CA 91791 (866) 240-5730) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT RECENTLY RECEIVED A POSTCARD FROM TK HOLDINGS THAT THEY FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA INFLATORS. MERCEDES BENZ IN PORTLAND OREGON (AUTHORIZED DEALER) CANNOT REPLACE THE AIR BAGS AS THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED REPLACEMENT AIR BAGS

WAS TOLD TO CONTACT MY DEALERSHIP- PURCHASED AND CALLED NORTH HAVEN MB DEALERSHIP WHO STATED WE HAVE NO LIST AND WE WILL CALL YOU WHEN IT IS AVAILABLE.

TAKAYUKI RECALL DEALERSHIP STATES THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS AND WILL NOT REPLACE AIRGAGS

TAKATA RECALL - NO PARTS AVAILABLE, NOT ABLE TO GET REPAIR FOR THIS DANGEROUS RECALLED ITEM.

TAKATA RECALL.....THE ORIGINAL NOTICE WAS IN APRIL 2016. ITS A YEAR AND A HALF LATER AND NO REMEDY FOR THE RECALL OF THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAGS. CHECKING THE AIRBAG RECALL WEBSITE, IT STATES THAT THE REMEDY IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. SERIOUSLY?????

THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED (SUN MOTORS, MECHANICSBURG, PA, 717-691-3333) AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY.

"TAKATA RECALL" STILL HAVE NO REPAIR/REPLACEMENT FOR MY CAR. DEALER SAYS THEY DON'T HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PARTS. DATA SHOWS THE AGE OF THE CAR MAKES IT MORE PRONE TO A PROBLEM. I'M IN ZONE 1 WHICH WAS SUPPOSE TO HAVE PRIORITY FOR REPLACEMENT. NO INCIDENTS TO REPORT YET.

TWO RECALLS REGARDING DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS. DEALER DOES NOT HAVE PARTS TO REPLACE.
