TAKATA AIRBAG-MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN REPORTED AS BEING IN FLORIDA YEAR ROUND. I DO NOT SEE IT AS A PRIORITY ON THE .PDF LIST OF VEHICLES BEING PRIORITIZED FOR REPAIR. MY CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN A HIGH HUMIDITY ZONE IN SOUTH FLORIDA AND I HAVE OWNED IT SINCE OCT 2014. I WANT IT REPLACED AS IT IS HIGH RISK AND COULD KILL ME AND MY KIDS.

MY 2012 VW EOS HAD A TENSIONER CHAIN JUMP 5 TEETH WITH NO WARNING. AND NOW THAT IS SUPPOSED TO COST MY OVER 4,000$ TO REPAIR ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP I HAD IT TOWED TO FROM MY HOUSE. I TRIED TO START IT AND IT JUST WOULDN'T START. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SOLD ME A NEW BATTERY, CHARGED ME A COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLARS TO TELL ME THAT THIS FAULTY PART IS WHAT CAUSED IT. THE CAR ONLY HAD ABOUT 80K MILES ON IT WITH VERY REGULAR SERVICING AND I BELIEVE THERE IS A SYSTEMIC ISSUE GOING ON HERE. PLEASE ASSIST.

TAKATA INFLATORS: NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET, BUT SINCE THE RECALL SAYS THAT SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH MAY OCCUR BECAUSE OF THE FAULTY AIRBAG I AM CONCERNED THAT IT HAS TAKEN SO LONG AND WE STILL DO NOT HAVE ANY INDICATION OF WHEN THIS WILL BE FIXED.

TAKATA RECALL, I RECEIVED A NOTICE ON 4-16-2016 THAT THE TAKATA AIRBAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IN OUR EOS 2012 VEHICLE.

I HAVE SPOKEN TO THEM ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS AND HAVE SENT EMAILS TO OTHERS WITHIN VW BUT HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET VW TO REPLACE MY AIRBAG.

MY CAR IS PART OF TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL. DEALER WIL NOT REPAIR OR PROVIDE LOANER VEHICLE. MY SAFETY AND MY FAMILY'S SAFETY IS AT SERIOUS RISK. THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. I TRIED SELLING THE CAR BUT WAS OFFERED RIDICULOUSLY LOW VALUE DUE TO RECALL. SO THEY WON'T FIX IT AND FURTHER WILL PENALIZE ME FINANCIALLY WHEN TRYING TO TRADE IT. I WANT MY CAR FIXED NOW OR A LOANER VEHICLE PROVIDED

I BOUGHT A USED 2012 EOS IN SEPTEMBER OF 2015. SINCE OWNING THE CAR, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE ALL 4 IGNITION COILS TWICE, IN LESS THAN A YEAR OF OWNING THIS CAR. THE FIRST TIME HAPPENED 3 WEEKS AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR. THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, THEN FAILS TO ACCELERATE. IT DOES NOT TRANSITION FROM THE LOWER GEARS TO THE HIGHER GEARS SMOOTHLY AND I AM CONSTANTLY IN FEAR OF GETTING STRANDED.

TAKATA RECALL - EVEN THOUGH VW PUBLISHED PUBLIC NOTICE OF THIS AIR BAG RECALL ON APRIL 12, 2016, WE STILL HAVEN'T BEEN NOTIFIED OF A SCHEDULED REPLACEMENT. WE SHOULD BE ON A PRIORITY LISTING SINCE WE LIVE IN A SUB-TROPICAL CLIMATE (SC) AND OUR VEHICLE IS AMONG THE OLDER INSTALLATIONS (2012). WE HAVE NEVER BEEN CONTACTED BY VW.

I CALLED FINDLAY VW IN HENDERSON NV TO MAKE APPT TO HAVE AIRBAG REPLACED. THEY SAID VW DOES NOT "HAVE A REMEDY" AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THE AIR BAG CAN BE REPLACED. IT IS COMMON KNOWLEDGE VW IS DRAGGING THEIR FEET IN REPLACING THESE TAKATA AIRBAGS. I WANT TO SELL THIS CAR SINCE I ONLY BOUGHT IT IN 9/2015. WHERE CAN I GET THE AIRBAG REPLACED? I HAVE A THREE YEAR PLATINUM EXTENDED WARRANTY THRU THAT COVERS THE AIRBAGS. I DO NOT WANT TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE DANGER. I HAVE READ WHERE OTHER MANUFACTURERS AND REPLACING THE AIRBAGS AT A GOOD STEADY PACE EXCEPT FOR VW, WHICH DOESN'T SEEM TO BE REPLACING ANY. WHAT GIVES? WHO CAN I SEEK RECOURSE FROM?

TAKATA RECALL. I LEASED THIS VEHICLE AND THEN PURCHASED IT FROM THE DEALER. HE SOLD IT TO ME AFTER THE AIRBAG ISSUES WERE KNOWN AND DID NOT ADVISE ME OF THAT BEFORE PURCHASE. ALSO I HAVE BEEN GIVEN NO DATE ON WHICH THE DEADLY AIRBAGS WILL BE FIXED. I WAS NOTIFIED IN FEBRUARY 2016. I AM AFRAID MY CAR WILL BE HIT AND THE AIRBAGS WILL KILL ME. WHEN IS SOMETHING GOING TO BE DONE TO FORCE VW TO GIVE ITS CAR OWNERS A LOANER UNTIL THIS ISSUE IS FIXED?

THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED AND ARE A THREAT TO LIFE IF THEY DEPLOY. I BOUGHT OUT MY LEASE TWO YEARS AGO AND I BELIEVE THEY KNEW OF THIS ISSUE BUT LET ME BUY THE CAR ANYWAY. ALSO, THE RECALL JUST SAID THE AIRBAG DIDN'T WORK PROPERLY, NOT THAT SHARDS OF METAL COULD KILL ME IF IT DEPLOYED. I ONLY LEARNED THIS SATURDAY WHILE AT THE DEALER AFTER I PUT OVER $300 FIXING THE START BUTTON AND $700 PUTTING ON NEW TIRES. THE DEALER SAID HE WOULD BUY MY CAR FOR $12,000 ONLY IF I BOUGHT ANOTHER VW. THIS CAR IS A THREAT TO MY LIFE AND I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE IT. PLEASE TAKE ACTION SO WE ARE NOT FORCED TO GAMBLE WITH OUR LIVES WHILE DRIVING A VEHICLE WE BOUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN GOOD FAITH!
