Takata recall - I have been notified for close to two years now that my airbag is defective and needs replacement due to the recall. I have been very patient in waiting for a replacement but until today when I received noticed that this company is filing for bankruptcy I feel less confident that there will be a replacement in time. I do not feel comfortable driving my car knowing a defective airbag is in it. When contacting the dealership for a replacement they have advised that they are in back order and this has been going on for close to two years. Something so serious in my car that can potential impact my family an I is unacceptable and should be fixed immediately. I don't feel I can enjoy my car fully due to the constant concern of these recalled airbags in my car.

"takata recall" has not been corrected
Takata recall I received recall notices on may and august 2016 from mercedes benz USA to replace the driver's side and passenger side airbags which states that they may rupture due to excessive internal pressure, likely to occur if vehicle is exposed to high levels of absolute humidity for extended periods of time, possibly causing serious injury or death. I live in south florida and the temps have been in the 100s with off the charts humidity every month! I live in fear of driving my car and dying in an airbag explosion. Weekly calls to the mercedes dealer said they don't have the parts yet! My husband's 2007 honda ridgeline was replaced immediately. Could you please explain why it's taking so long to fix this dangerous defect for my car? Thank you.

Takata recall I received a safety recall notice back in april 2016 because the airbags were not properly deploying. I called md today, sept. 6, 2017, because I have not heard from them and I was told that the parts are still not ready. I live in a state that is hot and humid, which exponentially increases the chances of airbag malfunctioning.
The recall of the airbags has not been fulfilled beyond reasonable time.

Takata recall - it's been over a year since I received the written notice of recall, and there is not yet a remedy. I am very concerned about our safety in the event of a collision or impact causing the airbags to deploy. It's very unreasonable to have to wait this long for a remedy, especially when this defect can cause serious bodily harm or death.

Takata recall my car starts advertising about my driver airbag.
Takata recall for the last two years I have been asking melbourne mercedesat 509e nasa blvd melbourne florida about the recall they say there not in yet. Not to worry if something was going to happen it would have happened already.
Takata recall: I am making this contact to request an updated plan for airbag replacement and an explanation for why the plan that was presented in 2016 was not acted upon. As I recall, the plan scheduled for priority #1 replacements to occur by the end of 2016. However, there has been no action on my or apparently other vehicles in this class, and there has been no information provided about an updated schedule. The auto manufacturer did not provide any further information in response to my call to their customer service number.
Takata airbags drivers side and passenger side have been on recall since before february 2016. The car lives in houston, texas, one of the most humid climates in the country. Nothing has been done. On the contrary, based on several discussions and calls to two local dealerships, I feel like nothing will ever be done. My wife and I are afraid to drive the car with defective airbags and have had them disconnected.
Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2010 mercedes-benz c300. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign numbers: 16v081000 (air bags) and 16v363000 (air bags). The contact stated that the part was not available within a reasonable time frame to schedule the recall repair. The dealer (dick dyer mercedes-benz and volvo, 5825 two notch rd, columbia, sc 29223, (803) 786-8888) did not give a specific date for when the part would become available. The contact was unable to determine when the vehicle would be repaired. In addition, the key would not turn over intermittently and prevented the vehicle from starting. The dealer replaced the ignition switch, which did not prevent the failure. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the starter needed to be replaced. The contact was uncertain if the dealer and the manufacturer would be able to provide a solution or if the oem part would fail again, if replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the concerns with the two air bag recalls. The approximate failure mileage was 130,000. Vin tool confirms parts not available.

Takata recall - mercedes benz has failed to correct this problem for over a year now. Attached are letters from them and further discussion with their exec dept, they have no clue when they will repair this safety issue. How long can they just keep delaying this safety repair and how many more people will die due to their nonchalant attention to this major safety problem. No car is safe to drive with these defective airbags.
Takata inflators: mercedes continues to state the parts are not available to correct the problem.
Takata recall - I called my local mercedes benz service manager to ask about the recall on the airbags. He stated "I don't know when parts would be available". The safety of my wife and children in the mercedes is my top priority. How can I feel safe driving a car that is known to have defective parts, that might maim or even take the life of one of my loved ones. Shame on mercedes benz for not making this a higher priority.
Takata recall it has been over a year and mercedes still has no solution to the takata airbag recal. That is ridiculous. What can be done?
Takata recall. It has been over a year since I learned about the airbag recall. To date, all I have are letters saying that my driver and passenger airbags are under recall, but that parts are not available. This does not feel safe to me. When can this recall be done?

Takata frontal airbag and another defective part that I had received an alert about over a year ago, but till today's date has not been remedied. As part is not available.
Takata recall. I received a notice from mbusa 6-8 months ago, and have gotten no response from my local dealer who only knows that this recall, to his knowledge, is on hold, and no parts are available. How can that be possible? If a car is in a crash and the airbag inflator deploys, does it not need to be replaced in order to complete the repairs to the vehicle? I am concerned, and have no faith in the corporate lobbyists and fat cats that cut corners for profits. I just want my car fixed, because I am handicapped, and have an extremely bad back, and worry that incorrect deployment of the airbag would further damage my spine, and cause me to go to a wheelchair from my cane, or worsen the numbness and my inability to get around. This should be your concern as well, because I have contacted an attorney who is willing to take my case for a percentage of the settlement, if we decide to settle, or accept the court mandated fee he would be entitled to. My entire lumbar and sacral spine are compromised bye degenerative disc disease, scoliosis, multiple spinal senoses and more
