My airbag on the driver side was loosed and the right side of the airbag is popped out on the steering wheel july 2, 2019. I was stationary when I noticed this, so I returned the car to the mercedes dealership in sugarland, tx to be fixed on july 2,2019. The service advisor informed me that mercedes would special order the part and fix it. On july 3, 2019 I received a call from the dealership stating the technician had inspected it and checked the springs. That they tighten it back up and it look ok and I need to wait until I receive my second letter from mercedes before they can replaced the airbag that I need to come in and pick up the car that it was ready. The airbag was not replaced. When will I receive a second letter to replace the takata recall airbag?

Takata recall appears to have become a bad joke. It has been 16 months since receiving a letter from mercedes benz acknowledging the danger of our airbags needing replacement and being a part of the takata recall (feb 2018 to june 2019). Mercedes benz has their notification of this recall, on their own mbusa website as jan 10, 2016 (the federal safety agency recall number 18v043). Mbz has stated the status of this recall as "recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available." since a very long time, with no apparent changes or updates. It is becoming clear that mbz has no intention of fulfilling this recall, and apparently quite content to leave the passengers and drivers of their vehicles in danger of injury, maiming, and/or death from a repairable problem that is well known for quite some time now.
Takata recall in a letter dated february 2018 I was notified by mercedes benz that my c250 sedan had a defective airbag that would need replacement. The letter went on to say that parts were not yet available but I would be notified when they became available in 2018. Some time later, the mbusa (mbusa.com) website published a repair schedule indicating that parts for my car would not be available in 2018 but would be in early 2019. Now the mbusa website says that the expected time for repair parts is april 2020. This is completely unacceptable because the car will be over seven years old at that point. That is less than the amount of time that it took for the first faulty airbags to begin killing and maiming drivers and passengers. My car is in priority group 9. The federal safety agency documentation shows that manufacturers should have acquired sufficient parts for repair of pg 9 cars by june of 2018, but in a letter owners, the ceo of mercedes says that this is out of his control. It is my opinion that mercedes benz is out of compliance with 49 usc 301 and that action should be taken to cause them to follow through with the required repairs in a timely manner.

Takata recall this recall has now been open for three years and four months with no proposed resolution. As a florida resident owner of an affected vehicle, I can only assume that the condition worsens over time, and that the passenger airbag at some point (soon or presently) becomes a greater risk of degredation and exolosive deployment than of passenger protection. May we at least instuct the dealer to disable the airbag temporarily (without cost to us) until a "fix" is available?
