I PLAN TO TRADE MY CAR IN WITHIN 2 MONTHS. THE DEALERSHIP SAID I WILL GET LESS FOR MY TRADE IN BECAUSE OF THE RECALL HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. THE TAKATA AIRBAG IS BEYOND MY CONTROL AND I SHOULD NOT BE THE ONE ENDANGERED OR SUFFER A MONETARY LOSS. I BELIEVE THAT AUDI SHOULD PROVIDE CASH REIMBURSEMENT FOR ANY LOSS.

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED THE ATTACHED NOTICE FROM AUDI OF AMERICA, INC., DATED APRIL 2016, AND STATING THAT MY VEHICLE CONTAINS A TAKATA FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR THAT "COULD POTENTIALLY RUPTURE IF THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN A CRASH WHERE THE FRONTAL AIRBAGS ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY. IN THE EVENT OF AN INFLATOR RUPTURE, METAL FRAGMENTS COULD PASS THROUGH THE AIRBAG CUSHION MATERIAL, WHICH MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS." THE NOTICE STATES THAT REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I RECENTLY SERVICED MY CAR, AND AGAIN THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I CALLED AUDI USA TODAY AND THEY SAID THAT TAKATA HAS NOT MADE REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME AND THEY HAVE NO TIMELINE FOR SUPPLYING THE PARTS. I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED THAT A CRITICAL PIECE OF SAFETY EQUIPMENT IN MY VEHICLE COULD ITSELF CAUSE ME OR MY PASSENGERS "SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH." I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF SOMEONE WOULD PLEASE ADVISE WHEN THESE REPLACEMENT PARTS WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR THIS CRITICAL REPAIR. THANK YOU. *TR

WHEN ASKING FOR A RECALL REPAIR TO THE DEALERSHIP, THIS IS THE MESSAGE I RECEIVED: GOOD AFTERNOON, "WE RECEIVED YOUR INQUIRY TO SETUP AN APPOINTMENT FOR YOUR AUDI A3 FOR THE AIRBAG CAMPAIGN. UNFORTUNATELY, PARTS ARE NOT YET AVAILABLE FOR US TO DO THE REPAIR. YOU WILL BE RECEIVING A SECOND LETTER FROM AUDI SOMETIME FIRST QUARTER OF NEXT YEAR ON WHEN THE REPAIRS CAN BE DONE. IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, PLEASE LET US KNOW. THANKS," IS THIS AN ACCEPTABLE ANSWER? I DON'T THINK SO.

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS NOTIFIED IN APRIL 2016 OF THE RECALL BY AUDI OF AMERICA. AS OF TODAY, OCT. 3, 2016 I WAS TOLD THAT THEY STILL HAVE NO TIMELINE AS TO WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE. AS THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION, POTENTIALLY FATAL, IT IS MIND BOGGLING THAT 6MONTHS HAVE ELAPSED SINCE THE INITIAL NOTIFICATION.
