Takata recall:I am still waiting for the mercedes benz company to send me notification for my car's airbag to be replaced. I have made repeated calls and never got a response from them telling me when I can bring in my car for an airbag replacement. I am concerned for my safety and want the airbags replaced as soon as possible.
Takata recall; I've been waiting for a year to have my defective air bag replaced and to date it is still not fixed and replaced.
Takata recall- I have two recalls that are both dangerous and not being addressed. The first recall was feb 2016 and the second one in may 2016. I keep getting told there is not a fix ready but ther is a possible risk of injury or death if the airbags deploy. Considering the airbags are a " safety feature" this is counter intuitive.

Takata inflators: they sent me a letter back in may 2016 and in august 2016 stating that both driver and passenger side airbags are defecting. There still has been no resolution regarding this and according to takata, if the airbags deploy or if they do not could result in serious injury or death. I am driving my mercedes around and scared to death that they may or may not ploy and could kill my family or I. Srs control unit: may corrode and cause control unit malfunction. This is still not resolved on my vehicle and the letter was sent out in march 2016.

Takata recall.. My air bag light remains on and I fear that they are not working. Also, my car will not restart after stopping at a store. In reading the comments in a recent forum, I am not the only mercedes benz owner having this problem. Based on the comments the issue is with the steering column (eis/els) and it is a manufacturing defect. The dealer also verified that this is a common problem with mercedes and the cost to repair it is $2100.00 upward.
"takata recall" I was driving to work around 10:30 am in my 2009 mercedes benz c300 enjoying the commute. As I approached the stop light.....blank!!!! I lastly remember breaking ....to open my watering eyes to see that I hit another vehicle and don't recall anything at all. As I get up in realized that my head hurts and there was a small tear in the steering wheel as a small portion of the bag deployed but not fully.. It appeared to be a faulty bag that has caused this serious inconvenience.
