Decline to replace airbag.
Takata- the first recall letter was sent to me in 2016. I have yet to receive a call from the dealership concerning replacement of this defective item. I have also contacted a local mercedes benz dealer for eta. As of today 11/13/2017, no eta has been provided.
Takata recall - I have been waiting almost 2 years for the local dealer to obtain the parts to perform the recall work. Recently, the dealer called to say that the parts finally became available, but then called back to say that they did not have the parts because they were already gone.
Takata recall - I've contacted 2 dealers and both were unable to replace my defected airbags
Takata recall. The dealer in my area has not contacted me for a repair.
Takata recall I have contacted my dealer loeber motors 3 times and have been told that there is no part yet made to repair the 3 existing recalls that were issued on 02/11/2016, 05/25/2016 and 01/10/2017
Takata recall - no fix but keep sending notices that it will cause fatal injuries. Mercedes knew these were defective and used them anyway, along with a lot of other manufacturers. They should be buying these vehicles back if there in not an option to repair a "safe" car that can be fatal if your "safety" airbags deploy.

Takata recall - I've been waiting almost two years, no replacement yet available. This is unacceptable. Even though my vehicle is registered in vermont, I spend the winters in florida, a high humidity state! The reports say the humidity can make the air bag fail. I want my airbags replaced now, before they fail and I die from it.
Takata recall when I purchased vehicle it was already salvage.
This airbag recall has been in effect for over two years and local dealerships still do not have a replacement part. I feel unsafe and frustrated.
Takata recall - I have 3 open recalls and my dealership is unable to perform the repairs since they don't have the parts. Is it safe to keep operating the vehicle with potentially faulty air bag?
Takata recall - nhsta recall number 16v081 and 17v017 and nhsta recall number 15v711 regarding the SRS control model. I have received several notices of these 3 very dangerous and urgent recalls. My vehicle is subject to these recalls and no remedy has been provided for all. I have contacted the manufacturer and mercedes benz dealership to have these recalls fixed, but I am told they have no parts to fix the recall, no remedy has been provided and there is nothing they can do to address the recalls - meanwhile, I am at risk every time I get behind the wheel and continue to receive notices about how dangerous this recall can be, life threatening. Now takata is filing bankruptcy and it has been years since the recalls were issued - why is there no remedy available to fix this? No dealership will address the issues, it in just an on going, never ending game. I want to know how I can fix my defective car before my wife, children, or myself are injured or killed due to the severity of this specific recall.
