TAKATA RECALL-I HAVE RECEIVED YET ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE ABOUT AIRBAG REPAIR BUT THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE. WALDORF VOLKSWAGEN DOES NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO COMPLETE THIS REPAIR FOR MY VEHICLE. MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ILLUMINATED FOR OVER A YEAR AND I REALLY DON'T DRIVE THE CAR AS A RESULT OF THIS. WHY DOES VW OF AMERICA CONTINUE TO SEND THESE REPAIR NOTICES BUT THERE AREN'T ANY PARTS AVAILABLE YET? THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!

ABS SYSTEM IS FAILING. ANTI-LOCK BRAKES DO NOT WORK WELL, DASHBOARD ABS SIGNALS ARE CONSTANTLY ON. PARKING BRAKE LIGHT CONSTANTLY FLASHES. JUST CALLED VW USA CUSTOMER SERVICE. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V-913) BUT THE RECALL COVERS MODEL YEARS 2009 AND 2010. MY CAR IS A 2006, BUT HAS THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. VOLKSWAGON WOULD NOT OFFER ANY REPAIRS OR DIAGNOSTICS SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS NOT LISTED ON THE RECALL. PERHAPS THE AMOUNT OF VEHICLES AFFECTED IS LARGER THAN THE RECALL POINTS OUT?

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE IN THE SUMMER OF 2016. I CALLED THE LOCAL (RICHMOND, VIRGINIA) DEALER RECENTLY AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM, AND THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY IDEA OF WHEN A SOLUTION WOULD BE AVAILABLE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHEN TO EXPECT A SOLUTION.

TAKATA RECALL GOT A LETTER FROM VW SAYING TO TAKE MY CAR IN FOR REPAIR AND WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER THEY SAID THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART YET????
