The driver's side air bag inflator may explode causing sharp metal fragments to strike driver and passengers which may cause death. This has been a known issue since January 2023. To date there is no known repair available? This is unacceptable.

The recall for the driver's airbag was announced in late January. I received notice in February and a remedy is still not available. I've not been able to drive my car for 6 months. I do not think 6+ months is a "timely manner" and would like to file a formal complaint against VW.
I just recently purchased this vehicle, which is a 2015 beetle and see that it has a air bag recall, but no fix is available yet. The car is now 8 years old, it is BS there still isnt a replacement and I am driving a death mobile where the airbag could explode at anytime and kill me with shrapnel
There is a recall on my vehicle that can cause death and Volkswagen has yet to provide a remedy to fix the recall. I have asked them about switching cars until a remedy is an available and that's not an option they provide. I do not feel safe driving my car, but I have no choice to drive it because I need transportation.
Airbags may explode causing death or injury. No remedy for at least one year and no stop drive authorized or communicated from Volkswagen due to the severity of the recall.

the federal safety agency, VW has informed me that there is recall on my car that could cause life-threatening injuries to me or my children who drive the car. I first heard about the recall of the airbag in January 2023 on the news. I have contacted my dealer 3 times to get the airbag fixed and they tell me each time that they do not have a solution to fix my car. I believe I have waited patiently for 6 months waiting for a fix while also driving an unsafe car. Shouldn't you do something about this problem?

This recall has been here since January 03 2023. When I called VW they stated it was not dangerous and there was no fix. I’m concerned driving this vehicle as the recall states my airbag can deploy at anytime sending shards through my body. BW still has no remedy almost 2 months later

This is a dangerous issue but VW is doing nothing but telling us, as required. So, what are we supposed to do? Drive an unsafe car or wait indefinitely for VW to get around to having a remedy? Neither seems reasonable nor acceptable. It's supposedly related to humidity and/or heat, and my car has lived most of its life in Hawaii and Arizona, so ... How can they just say, "Your car has a safety defect that may kill you, but we aren't prepared to do anything about it" and nothing else? Shouldn't they owe us all at least a rental until the car can be made safe? Furthermore, in the recall notice they sent today, dated February 2023, despite the recall actually being from 1/5/23, they say in the same paragraph, "Don't call the dealer, they can't help" and "As always, call the dealer for help." What? Insult to possibly severe injury or death, CARFAX notified us over a month ago, and LoJack did yesterday, and when I contacted the dealer over a month ago, they claimed there was NO RECALL, despite my giving them the recall info from your site (Manufacturer Recall Number 69EM / the federal safety agency Recall Number 22V945), and today they said there's only a PENDING recall. So, please, tell me what we are to do, let my son drive this car or just not have a car? Also, they say it can explode, sending metal fragments flying, but is this if and when it deploys (and fails) in an accident or just randomly, whenever, just driving along? Thank you for any information, guidance, and prodding of VW. This if not fixed very quickly will certainly end our long relationship with VW.
