TAKATA RECALL--IT'S BEEN 9 MONTHS SINCE I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL, AND CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER. BUT I'VE RECEIVED NO FURTHER WORD. I LOVE THIS CAR, HOWEVER, I AM VERY CONCERN, SINCE MY WIFE USES THIS CAR EVER DAY TO GO TO WORK. IF, GOD FORBID, SOMEONE HITS THE CAR AND THE AIR BAG IMPLODES AND SHE IS INJURED OR DIES, YOU WILL BE SUED. WHEN IS THE PROBLEM GOING TO BE FIXED? VERY CONCERN OWNER AND HUSBAND!!!!!

HOWEVER, I OWN OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME RECALL, AND THOSE MANUFACTURERS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO OBTAIN THE REPLACEMENT.

TAKATA RECALL. IT HAS BEEN 10 MONTHS SINCE THE RECALL ON MY VEHICLE AND EVERY INQUIRY I MAKE IS MET WITH "NO PARTS AVAILABLE". THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I LIVE IN SC WHICH, TO MY UNDERSTANDING, IS A PART OF THE COUNTRY WITH A HIGHER CAUSE FOR CONCERN.

I RECEIVED A RECALL FOR THE SUBJECT CAR BACK IN MARCH 2016. I AM BEING TOLD THAT THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THEY WILL BE ABLE TO REPLACE THIS FAULTY AIR BAG. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY STILL CANNOT GIVE ME A TIME FRAME. I REALIZE THAT THIS RECALL IS VERY LARGE HOWEVER MY DAUGHTER DRIVES THIS CAR AND THIS MAKES ME VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. I HAVE ASKED IF THEY WOULD SUPPLY A LOANER CAR AND THEY SAID NO BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THAT THE CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE. IF IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE WHY IS THERE A RECALL. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT OTHER RECOURSE I HAVE UNTIL THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE.
