The air bags have been fixed. Sometimes when I apply my brakes they are soft and I have to apply more pressure to stop. When this happens I drive really slow because I don't know if I'm going to be able to stop in time. I have not kept track of how many time this has happened. At least 5 times in the last 6 months. Twice I went to my mechanic and they bled the brake line to get it fixed. Winter is here and I hope this does not cause a wreck because you expect us to wait until you get the parts. I have no other transportation and need my car.
