Takata recall. I purchased my bmw 128i on july 4th 2014 and I have reason to believe that bmw knew of the faulty airbags in my model car and did not inform me of the known issue. I was never informed of an issue until the end of 2015. Can I have bmw buy back my car due to the circumstances of the recall and potentially not being informed of an issue with the car before purchasing the car?

Takata recall I received a recall notice letter from bmw in the spring of 2016, but they have not repaired my car yet. When I asked the dealer a couple weeks ago, they told me they could not fix it yet. What's taking so long? How long can they keep me waiting? I'm concerned about driving a car with an airbag that could explode.

Pulling in parking lot to park going at a very low speed I hit the brakes and they did not hold instead the car accelerated and jumped on to a sidewalk and then into a brick wall. I finally was able to get the car in reverse and it took off backwards for a few feet until the brakes finally caught the car then came to a sudden stop. I hit the brick wall with the front end of my car causing lots of damage to the front of my car and the building the air bag never deployed. The policeman that worked the wreck said the tire marks where the car took off were acceleration marks not brake marks, but the ones where it finally stopped were brake marks.
