Takata recall: I have contacted mercedes benz numerous times concerning the recall and I cannot get a straight answer. The last time (a few weeks ago by corporate) I was told that since they have had numerous airbags go off and no one was terribly injured (I.e. Shrapnel) not to be concerned about the recall. I have also been told that they cannot get the new parts. This is the story they are telling since day one of the recall. I honestly don't think mercedes benz has any intention of fixing this dangerous issue. This is very upsetting since I feel I am driving my family around in a time bomb due to the uncertainty of these air bags. Isn't there anything you can do? I truly believe they are lying since they do not want to fix these airbags and have pretty much said they are not going to do so based on my last conversation. This is the information coming from corporate.
