TAKATA RECALL - IT IS COMPLETELY UNREASONABLE TO GET A RECALL AND TO HAVE THE PASSENGER RISKING DEATH AND FOR SUBARU TO NOT PRIORITIZE THIS IMMEDIATELY. PEOPLE WHO HAVE ORDERED BACK IN FEBRUARY HAVE NOT GOTTEN THE REPLACEMENTS. UNACCEPTABLE. WE ARE NOT SUPPOSE TO USE THAT SEAT????

TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE BEEN WAITING ALMOST 1 1/2 MONTHS FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO CONTACT ME ABOUT THIS RECALL! I CALLED THEM THE DAY I RECEIVED THE NOTICE AND WAS TOLD THAT THE PARTS WERE ON BACKORDER! MY DAUGHTER DRIVES THIS VEHICLE AND IS VERY CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING IT WITHOUT THE RECALL BEING DONE. SHE WON'T ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE WITH HER. HOW IS IT THAT MY DAUGHTER ACTS SO RESPONSIBLE BUT THE MANUFACTURER AND OEM DEALER WON'T! WHEN I CALL THE DEALER, THEIR ENTRY LEVEL RECEPTIONIST WON'T EVEN ALLOW ME TO TALK TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO VOICE MY CONCERN. HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE HAVE TO BE INJURED BEFORE THIS RECALL IS CARRIED OUT. I FOR ONE, PRAY IT IS NOT ONE OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS!!! VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH HOW THIS IS BEING HANDLED!!!

TAKATA RECALL. DESPITE BEING CONTACTED 2 MONTHS REGARDING THIS RECALL, AND BEING TOLD THAT WE SHOULD NOT ALLOW A PASSENGER TO RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, I HAVE YET TO HEAR FROM ANY SUBARU DEALERSHIP. AS A SINGLE CAR HOUSEHOLD, THIS HAS BEEN EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING.

TAKATA RECALL SUBARU CASE# [XXX] I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ABOUT THE ONGOING TAKATA AIRBAG ISSUE. UPON CONTACTING SUBARU MY WIFE WAS INFORMED BY "[XXX]" THAT : 1) THAT ONLY A "DEALER" COULD DO THE REPAIR WORK 2) SUBARU WOULD ONLY COVER $500 IN TRANSPORTATION COSTS PER THE LETTER RECEIVED: 1) "SUBARU WILL REPLACE THE INFLATOR FOR YOUR FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG AT NO COST TO YOU." 2) "UNTIL THIS REPAIR IS PERFORMED, DO NOT ALLOW PASSENGERS TO RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT" GIVEN THAT I AM IN ALASKA (ZIP 99901) AND THAT THERE IS NO CURRENT SUBARU DEALER AVAILABLE IN MY AREA I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD NEED TO TRANSPORT THE VEHICLE TO EITHER JUNEAU ALASKA, OR SEATTLE WASHINGTON, BOTH ARE ONLY AVAILABLE BY BOAT AND AFTER CHECKING WITH MULTIPLE SHIPPING AND FERRY SERVICES THE COST WOULD BE AROUND $1800 ROUND TRIP TO TRANSPORT MY VEHICLE. BOTH MY WIFE AND I COMMUNICATED THIS TO "KYLE" AND AGAIN WAS TOLD THEY WOULD ONLY COVER $500. I PROCEEDED TO OFFER ALTERNATIVES SUCH AS HAVING A CERTIFIED LOCAL SHOP DO THE WORK, OR THAT BECAUSE MY AREA HAS A FAIR NUMBER OF VEHICLES THAT THEY SHOULD SEND SOMEONE. I WAS BASICALLY TOLD NO AND NOT PROVIDED ANY OTHER REMEDY. COULD YOU PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AND FIND OUT WHY THERE IS ANY ISSUE IN GETTING THIS REPAIRED? IN THE MEANTIME MY FAMILY OF 5 IS HAVING TO TAKE TWO CARS, AND NOW I AM UNABLE TO SELL MY VEHICLE OR TRADE IT IN UNTIL THIS ISSUE IS ADDRESSED. I AM NOT UPSET ABOUT THIS, ANNOYED YES, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY THERE ARE MANY OTHER PEOPLE IN MY AREA THAT SIMPLY CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY TO HAVE THEIR CARS FIXED IF SUBARU WILL NOT HONOR THEIR OWN COMMITMENTS.
