Takata recall I was involved in a head on collision in 2015 driving my 2012 mercedes c250. The impact was severe and totaled my car, but the airbags did not deploy. My crashing speed was well over 45mph. I purchased a mercedes benz from the dealer for its safety and I am disappointed that mercedes benz failed to recognize the defect before selling me a car that wasn't safe. I am lucky to walk away with minor injuries, I have been terrified of driving a motor vehicle ever since.

Takata recall - my car was recalled a year ago for passenger side airbag issue that can result in 'death or injury'. A year later mercedes says a fix is still not ready to fix the recall.

Please put pressure on mercedes. This is rediculous.
