Takata recall: I was notified about the takata airbag recall by letter over one year ago. I have tried to schedule appointments to have the airbag replaced on two different occasions at two different audi dealerships. Both dealerships stated that they do not have the parts and do not know when the parts will be available. This is an unreasonable amount of time to wait for a repair especially considering that the current airbag in my car is a potential safety risk that when inflated during a crash could shoot metal fragments into vehicle occupants (me!). The lack of response from the manufacturer is unacceptable and irresponsible. I expect an expedient investigation and resolution to this safety hazard.
Tamara recall. I received a letter february of 2016 notifying me that there was a recall on the airbags in my car which could lead to serious injury or death. One year later there is still no solution from audi to repair the problem. I feel like I am driving a time bomb. Is there anything I can do?

Takata recall I feel paranoid,scared and worried to drive anywhere in my car, this is negligence and it has taken almost 2 years and nothing is going on. I cant believe such a company isnt being forced to produce new bags!!! Its absurd.
Takata recall. Am very annoyed and angry at how long this is taking. I feel very unsafe on the road and its not ok, its neglect! I got a letter in april 2016 and still nothing has been done. I contacted consumer affairs and bbb and they cant do much either.

Takata inflators I received a recall letter april 2016 stating my vehicle has a potentially deadly driver side airbag. I have contacted audi of jacksonville fl who confirmed the letter and stated they can't give me a date when my vehicle will be repaired. They refuse to supply a rental vehicle or to take any further action to remedy my situation. My daughter normally drives this vehicle and I now must watch it depreciate while it sits in my driveway. My other vehicle is a 2011chevy suburban which has also been recalled for the takata air bag VIN [xxx]. I'm in potential danger and have been severely limited in driving and am losing value on both vehicles. I tried private attorneys who seem to only be handling actual damage and injuries. Please advise me where I can further pursue action. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Takata recall - my car was delivered in shreveport, la and I bought it after it had been in service for 2 1/2 years in that humid envirnment. I have it home in santa fe, nm - a dry environment. I can not get an answer as to any priority I might have since the psdi-5 non-dessicated inflator in my car had been in a humid environment for an extended period. I am not driving the car - it is unsafe for me.
Takata recall. I got a letter from audi on 4/27/2106. The letter is attached. Please ignore my notes. It stated my car was being recalled due to a defective front airbag made by takata. Parts are unavailable and no knows when they will be. I called audi and they said they would not be providing rental cars to their customers. I called 2 dealers in columbus, ohio and they would not provide rental cars as this is a manufacturers defect. Meanwhile I am screwed. I and all the other impacted audi owners have to drive an unsafe car. This is terrible. I could use your help to get audi to do the right thing.
