"takata recall". I received a "important safety recall notice" from mercedes-benz USA, dated november 2017 stating that my 2013 mercedez-benz c250 was being recalled due to defective "takata air bags". I contacted my local mercedez-benz dealer (mercedez of orlando) and they told that they would contact me when replacement parts are available. I received a second "important safety recall notice" from mercedez-benz USA (dated february 2018) stating that I should contact my local mercedez-benz dealership immediately to have the "takata airbags replaced. I contacted my local mercedez-benz dealer (mercedez of orlando) and they told me that the replacement parts were still not available and they will call me when they are available. Today (07may2018) I received a letter from my local mercedez-benz dealer (mercedez of orlando) telling me that my 2013 mercedez-benz c250 has a "safety recall issue" due to defective takata airbags and I should contact the service department at (855) 456-8774. I contacted the service department of mercedez of orlando and they told me that they don't have the replacement parts and they will contact me as soon as they have the parts. Conclusion: it has been 18 months since I received the first "safty recall notice" from mercedez-benz USA and I still haven't had my "recall issues" fixed. This is totallt unacceptable. I am driving an "unsafe" vehicle and is under a "mandatory recall" and my local mercedez-benz dearler (mercedez of orlando) is jerking me around and refusing to fix my vehicle. If I get hurt or injured in a car accident due to these "safety recall issues" who is liable?

I just got off the phone with mbusa customer service about the takata recall. In the letter sent out, it states that 'a passenger- side inflator explosion during deployment could result in sharp metal fragments striking the front passenger or other occupants, possibly causing serious injury or death.' but that there are no parts available to fix this possible dangerous situation if it happens to occur. I told the phone representative I feel unsafe driving my car, especially with my son with me and asked if mb can offer me a rental car until the parts are available to fix the recall. She said mb at this time is not in the position to offer rental cars. And I replied ' you are saying that mb is not willing to give me a rental car while you have sent out a recall stating I can be in danger but are unable to fix the problem?. And she repeated that mb is not in the position to offer rental cars at this time. I feel like there should be something mercedes should do. I understand mb is sending out the recall notices to save themselves if something does happen to a driver due to the recall, and I am assuming they are hoping customers just disregard the notice. If a customer, such as myself feels unsafe because of this recall and if mb is not going to resolve it now, then what are my options ?
I received a recall notice from mercedes about the takata airbags. When I called the company to see when replacements will be available they stated they did not know so I called the auto safety hotline. They told me not for a year due to my model is 2013. I then called mercedes back and said that is not a reasonable amount of time and would like a loaner vehicle until mine is fixed and safe. Mercedes stated they are not giving loaner vehicles and encouraged me to keep driving this vehicle since they have not have any deaths. This is not acceptable to me and I would like a loaner or replacement vehicle. I did some research and there are reported accidents with their vehicles having airbag issues and injuries have been reported. Not having any reported deaths does not make my car safe, since when does someone have to die in order for a comp[any to acknowledge and provide their customers with a loaner or safe vehicle replacement.
