Takata recall - my case # is 10968930, first reported in may 2017. I was told our airbags would be available on 6/1/17. I received an e-mail asking where I wanted the parts sent; I answered. I waited until august 1 to call the dealer...they had no idea what I was talking about. Can you help me.?
Occupant restraint controller recall... The fact that this is not resolved is unacceptable. If they are unwilling to repair, I would expect a full refund for the car.
What is a resonable time to wait for a car manufactuer to come up with a solution or begin fixing problem?

My vehicle is still waiting to be serviced for the recall for the airbags. Also my windshield wipers come on randomly when I turn on my turn signal. This problem has been going on since april of 2015, a month after I got the vehicle.
There is a recall on these parts on my automobile and there are no parts available to repair. I am worried and nervous about this possibly failing in my car due to all the past incidents with takata airbags. I would like to have this remedied if not sooner rather than later. This has increased my risk to danger and as a result I am no longer confident in the vehicle's performance. The manufacturer has not provided any timeline on when this issue will be resolved.

Recall 2010 dodge caliber seat belt and airbag defects
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 dodge caliber. The contact stated that the clock spring on the front driver side air bags failed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed.

I was traveling at approximately 40 MPH when I lost consciousness due to adverse reaction to a prescribed medication. Approached retro-style pickup truck stopped at red light & because of being unconscious didn't apply brakes to slow down & stop. Frontal crash into rear end of stopped vehicle. Airbags didn't deploy nor did seatbelt engage to prevent me from being thrust forward face first into steering wheel. Incurred significant damage to front teeth & neck/back strain. Was informed by chrysler corp. That airbag sensors are positioned too low for deployment. Also informed because I did not apply brakes this was cause for both seat belt not engaging to prevent forward thrust into steering wheel and deployment if airbags. Also was told seat belt & airbag will not engage their safety features because I didn't apply brakes creating an inertia effect which would have activated both safety mechanisms. This is disturbing @ many levels as: 1 how can airbag sensors be positioned so low they won't deploy upon impact with vehicles higher from ground than mine? 2 when unconscious brakes cannot be applied therefore engaging what are supposed to be safety features to prevent injury or death? This whole incident is very unsettling as I no longer feel safe driving this vehicle. These above mentioned failures of safety features not engaging at relatively higher speed impact into rear end of stopped vehicle is not acceptable & should be thoroughly investigated.
