I have not gotten the free replacement airbags from any of the dealerships near me. So far nothing has happened to the airbags as of now. I use my car very often and I do not want to become part of the statistics. I just want the airbags replaced.

August 2016,mercedes-benz recalled my vehicle because of recall the federal safety agency #16v‑363. As of today, there is no replacement airbag available. My car has become worthless as a trade-in with this defect. I have not had an accident, but should not have to travel so cautiously, praying that nothing happens.
I received a recall on april 2016 for the driver-side takata airbag and a recall on august 2016 for the passenger-side takata airbag. I have contacted mercedes on multiple occasions and nothing has been done. My dealership mercedes-benz of north palm beach 9275 fl a1aalt, north palm beach (561) 848-2900 cannot give me any answers as to when they could replace those bags and do not seem to care!! In the meantime I am driving with 2 potentially dangerous airbags!! It has been impossible to get any help with replacing those airbags! Thank you for your help, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Takata recall - this recall has been open for almost 2 years. When will they have a fix ready, or do they plan on having a fix? I am concerned with my family's safety. Thank you.

Takata recall. The recall letters have been sent to owners since may of 2016 but as of today, july 24, 2017, there is still no replacement airbags available to replace the defective airbags. We should not be exposed to these unsafe airbags. There should be a vehicle rental option paid by the airbag manufacturer until the airbags are replaced.
Letter from congressman webster on behalf of constituent re to a mercedes-benz recall but the constituent is concerned over his safety since he has received no news onto when the replacement will be done from either dealership. *ld the consumer stated the recall repair exceeded a reasonable amount of time to be repaired.
Takata recall_ I initially received the recall in may, 2016 for the driver side air bag problem, then again, in august, 2016 adding a problem with the passenger side airbag. It has been over a year and plenty of time to repair the problems. As of today, 7.12.2017, no resolution has been made. This is a very dangerous problem and should have been fixed by now. I contacted mercedes on 6.19.17, they stated that the problem is being worked on and that "no mercedes has had this problem occur", that is all well and good but I do not want to be the first. Once again, since this is a deadly problem it should have been resolved. Thanks [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

According to the federal safety agency and mbusa this car has two recalls on it due to airbags potentially killing ocupants in the vehicle. I knew about the first recall but not about the second recall on the vehicle until I got a letter from mbusa two weeks ago addressing the issue. When I look on the federal safety agency the recall dates back to may of 2016 but mbusa has notified me two weeks ago. Reading on the federal safety agency website the manufacture has 60 days to produce a solution on a recall but it has been well past the 6 months for one recall, well past one year for the recall. Please help me in getting a solution from mbusa to resolve the issue, my life could be taken away at any minute.
I bought a care from mercedes benz in 2015 in pompano beach, florida. On may 2016, I had received a letter from mercedes benz stating that there is a defect that has been detected with driver-side seat airbags. In august 2016, I had received another letter stating that the passenger 'side airbag inflator housing in my vehicle may rupture due to excessive internal pressure. Since I have received those letters, I have been really terrified to the idea that I and my kids are at risk if I have an accident. I had been involved in a deadly accident in 2012; I am alive today because the air bag was working properly. Since I have received that notice, I have to limit my driving. I have got to the point now that I am so scared that I am afraid of driving on any highways and expressways with the car. I have a tremendous level of anxiety and I am terrified by the idea that I am driving a car with an air bag defect. I called mercedes twice to seek for options that would if not resolve the issue but at the minimum alleviate my hardship, but they are not willing to do anything for me. They said that they are working on resolving the issue; I just have to continue to drive the car. I have offered them to; 1-give me a loaner while they are working on solving the issue, and I will continue to make my regular monthly payments. 2-give me a reasonable discount amount on another vehicle, so I can trade my vehicle for another one without that safety issue. They have refused to help me in any shape of forms. I am defenseless and hopeless. I know how powerful companies like mercedes benz are, that the reason I am turning to you in order to come to my rescue. I have to drive to work and take my kids to school every day. I can continue to drive a vehicle that is putting my like and two precious kids at risk. Please help me out.
"takata recall" mbusa says that they are waiting for the federal safety agency to tell them when the new airbags will be available in my area (california). They blame the federal safety agency for the delay---read the faq on their website. I am complaining that why the federal safety agency is not taking this matter serious enough and why they do not tell mbusa to change my airbags. Why telling us this safety matter when the federal safety agency is not fast enough to fix the problem. I am literally driving a time bomb not knowing when it will explode. Mbusa is not willing to provide me with a loaner while you are making a decision. This is the most ridicules thing I have ever heard of, that a safety recall is been called but the federal safety agency is not taking it serious enough. As a tax payer I demand an answer and a replacement very soon.

"takata recall" recall letter says not necessary to do anything until receiving second letter. Two days after receiving letter-airbag warning lights came on. Have not received second letter. Spoke with dealership, they say that they can't guarantee that bags wont go off by themselves and that they cant do anything until they receive parts. I am now hearing that bags can explode unexpectedly throwing metal fragments into your face and head and cause death. Mercedes needs to do something about this asap, this is a family vehicle.
"takata recall" mercedes-benz USA has notified me that there is a defect in the driver-side airbag inflator and it may rupture due to excessive pressure. They have not provided a date for me to bring the car in for repair therefore we are currently driving an unsafe vehicle that may cause bodiily injury or death to me or other members of our family. I want the federal safety agency to contact the mercedes-benz USA and insist that they provide us with a safe vehicle until they correct the problem with our car.
