TAKATA RECALLS I HAVE BEEN GETTING REPEATED LETTERS REGARDING THE RECALL OF THE AIRBAGS IN MY GLK350. EACH NOTICE DELAYS THE CORRECTION FOR ANOTHER YEAR. WHAT CAN I DO TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED IN A MORE TIMELY MANNER?

I WAS DRIVING WITH MY HEAT ON IN COLD WEATHER. I WAS IN MOTION WHEN I HEARD A LOUD POP. I WAS ON ROUTE 1 TRAVELING STRAIGHT ON THE ROAD. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS MY WINDSHIELD. THEN I HEARD A CRACKLING SOUND ABOVE ME. THE WHOLE FRONT PANEL SUNROOF NOW LOOKED LIKE CRACKLE GLASS. WHEN I GOT HOME I LOOKED TO SEE IF SOMETHING HAD HIT THE SUNROOF BUT NOTHING HAD. WHEN I CONTACTED MY MERECEDES DEALERSHIP THEY WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERE WAS A PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH I HAD TOLD THEM WHAT THE MERCEDES BLOGS WERE SAYING. I HAD THE DEALERSHIP REPLACE THE SUNROOF. THE PANEL COST $1131.20 PLUS LABOR $402.50.
