TAKATA RECALL: THIS RECALL HAS BEEN OPEN FOR A LONG TIME WITH NO REMEDY IN SIGHT, I AM FILING A COMPLAINT BECAUSE THIS IS UNSAFE AND I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING MY CAR. *TR

TAKATA RECALL VOLKSWAGEN WILL NOT FIX THE AIRBAG OF THE CAR, HELP FIND A REMEDY OR GIVE A DATE TO FIX IT. MY WIFE IS PREGNANT AND HAS TO DRIVE A CAR WITH AN AIRBAG THAT HAS POTENTIALLY BEEN TRANSFORMED INTO A BOMB AFTER IT HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO THE FLORIDA HEAT.

TAKATA RECALL NO SOLUTION TO REMEDY THE POSSIBILITY OF KILLING MY CHILD IN A CRASH. WE CANNOT DRIVE THE CAR WITH OUR CHILD FULL KNOWING OF WHAT COULD HAPPEN. VW HAS DONE NOTHING. AND NOTHING IN SIGHT. WE ARE VERY UPSET THERE ARE NO ANSWERS. WE KNEW OF THE RECALL SINCE 6/16. WE JUST TOOK CAR IN FOR A SERVICE AND LEARNED THE SEVERITY OF IT ALL. WE DECIDED WE WANT OUT OF THE CAR. THE VW DEALER WE BOUGHT THE CAR FROM WOULD NOT OFFER US ANYTHING BUT AUCTION PRICE FOR OUR CAR AS THEY CANNOT EVEN RESELL IT!! WE CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY A NEW CAR WITH NEGATIVE EQUITY ON A CAR THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED BUT THEY CAN'T FIX IT!! WE ARE VERY VERY UPSET AND NOW WE ARE PLAYING RUSSIAN ROULETTE WITH OUR LIVES. WE BOUGHT THE CAR FOR ITS SAFETY RATING AND NOW IT'S POTENTIALLY THE CARS SAFETY FEATURES THAT COULD KILL MY FAMILY. TAKATA AND VW NEED TO FIGURE THIS OUT AND NOW!!!

TAKATA RECALL. THIS RECALL IS FAR TOO SLOW. IT IS A DANGEROUS SAFETY ITEM, AND IT IS MORE THAN A YEAR THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN WELL KNOW. NHTSA MUST COMPEL TAKATA AND THE CAR MANUFACTURERS TO INCREASE PRODUCTION OR OUTSOURCING OF THE DEFECTIVE PARTS. THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT PRODUCTION COULD HAVE BEEN INCREASED LONG AGO IF THE PARTS WERE BEING SOLD AT A PROFIT. THIS IS SHAMEFUL ON THE PART OF NHTSA, TAKATA AND THE AUTOMOBILE MANUFACTURERS.
