Takata recall. I purchased this car for my teenage son on 3/13/18. I spent considerable time shopping for a vehicle in our price range that did not have the open takata recall. At that time, the federal safety agency website, mercedes customer service and carfax all showed that this car was good - no open recalls. Now I come to find out that both passenger and driver bags/inflators are on recall, effective 6/1/16 and 2/9/16, respectively. I am extremely upset and concerned, as I do not want my son driving an unsafe vehicle. How is it possible that the recalls were "not there" in march? Please help. Thanks.

"takata recall"
"takata recall" I contact a mercedez benz dealer many times in order to have the drivers side air bag replace and they always respond that the part is not yet available and that they do not know when is going to be available. I'm really concern that in case of an accident I can be injury by the defective airbag installed in my vehicle. Please let me know how to proceed to have this defective airbag replace as soon possible.
2011 mercedes benz c class. Consumer writes in regards to takata airbag safety recall. *ld the consumer stated the recall repair exceeded a reasonable amount time being completed.
My complaint #11053646; I have tried e-mailing the federal safety agency and your e-mail does not work. When I checked the replacement schedule for my car it looked like mine should be done first based on the year of vehicle. After I filed a complaint I received notice it would get done by 3/31/18 then just received another one now says 6/30/18. It seems mercedes is taking their good old time when I've heard other car manufacturers immediately took care of this problem. I can't sell my car and am afraid of getting in an accident with the existing airbags. They just dont care.
I was involved in a car accident an air bag never deployed I bumped my head an wife injured her arm. Car ran the street to the other side an manage to him the in the right rear tire an had a front end collision. Street collision I was on a main street an had the right of way.
Takata recall. Mercedes benz has now changed the "priority group" of the recall on my air bags from a "3" to a "4", and most recently a "5." and the expected date of when "replacement parts [are] expecte to be available" has changed multiple times, each time extending that date; the last letter I received says "by june 30, 2018." the letter I received just last month says "before march 31, 2018." I am in florida. Everything I read says florida should be in a high priority group due to humidity. What is really going on? What sanctions have been imposed on manufacturers who are replacing airbags only on the vehicles they are trying to sell, as this is what the mercedes dealership in jacksonville, fl is doing?
Takata airbag recall - the recall letter that I received january 31, 2018 states that the part to repair the car will not be available until september 2018 for the driver side air bag and september 2019 for the passenger side air bag. I don't want my wife driving this car until the fix/repair is done. Two years is a long time to wait for parts. We want a loaner vehicle provided by the manufacturer.

Takata recall - why has the federal safety agency granted an extension to priority group 4 vehicles? Mbusa has made very little effort to address the airbag recall and having the federal safety agency allow them to continue to drag their feet is unacceptable.
Takata recall. My airbags have still yet to be replaced despite a recall taking place multiple years ago.
Takata recall there has been an outstanding recall on my vehicle since 2016 which states if involved in a crash metal fragments may come through the airbag and inflict serious bodily injury on the driver and/or the passenger. What remedy do I have as we are now in 2018 and this has still yet to be fixed?

As of december 21,2017 I am still trying to get my takata airbags replaced as a result of the recall. I keep getting legal notices to visit airbagrecall.com, register my car, and go to the local dealership, but mercedes benz of baton rouge still cannot replace them. I do not know where else to go or what else to do. This has been going on for a year or more.
