ACCORDING TO TAKATA, ACTIVATION OF A NON-DESICCATED AMMONIUM NITRATE INFLATOR WITH DEGRADED PROPELLANT MAY RESULT IN AN INFLATOR RUPTURE. AN INFLATOR RUPTURE MAY CAUSE METAL FRAGMENTS TO PASS THROUGH THE AIR BAG AND INTO THE VEHICLE INTERIOR AT HIGH SPEED, WHICH MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS.

TAKADA RECALL - YESTERDAY 10.26.17 I HAVE CALLED THE LOCAL LAS VEGAS MERCEDES BENZ DEALERSHIP [FLETCHER JONES]. THEY TOLD ME THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THE RECALL FOR TWO YEARS AND THEY HAVE NOT YET REPLACED ONE TAKADA AIRBAG TO DATE AS THEY HAVE NO PARTS FOR REPLACEMENT. THEY HAVE NO PARTS FOR THE RECALL OF THE AIRBAG. THIS LEAVES ME AND/OR MY FAMILY AT RISK OF INJURY IF WE GET INTO AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS DEFECTIVE AIRBAG STILL IN MY VEHICLE.

I HAVE CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER AND THEY SAID THAT MY DAUGHTERS CAR IS ON A LIST. I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED AN OFFICIAL RECALL LETTER FROM MERCEDES LETTING ME KNOW TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. FURTHERMORE, THE SALESMEN NEGLECTED TO INFORM ME THAT THE CAR HAD BEEN RECALLED. HE READ EVERYTHING FROM THE CARFAX REPORT BUT NEGLECTED TO READ THE PART ABOUT THE RECALL. GREAT TO KNOW I BOUGHT A CAR FOR MY 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER THAT COULD KILL HER.
