Takata recall. All local dealerships say (as they have said since june of 2013) that there is no fix available yet. I have owned the car since 2013 and 5 years later there is still no fix and I do not want to die if and when the airbags explode and shoot shrapnel into my eyes.

Takata recall I have bought a pre-owned 2013 vw cc from a dealership earlier this year (feb/march 2017). I was not notified of any open recalls or that there might be one. Since finding out about the recall, I have been trying to set up an appointment with vw dealers around me, but was told that there are no fixes available and that all I can do is wait for the fix to be implemented. I am not sure what to do at this point. I have consistent 1+ hour drives and I am not comfortable with the knowledge that there is an active recall for a serious issue for the vehicle I rely on daily. Additionally, I am not able to trade in the car due to the recall, unless I accept unreasonably low offers.

From the volkswagen recall site re: steering wheel air bag & clock spring. Summary: volkswagen group of america, inc. (volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2010-2014 volkswagen cc vehicles. In the affected vehicles, debris may contaminate the air bag clock spring, a spiral wound, flat cable that keeps the air bag powered while the steering wheel is being turned. This contamination may tear the cable and result in a loss of electrical connection to the driver's frontal air bag. Consequence: a loss of electrical connection to the driver's frontal air bag will prevent the air bag from deploying in the event of a vehicle crash, increasing the risk of injury. The local vw dealer says our car is not included however, nothing works on the steering wheel and the air bag warning light in the dash is on. When contacting vw direct I am told the federal safety agency is responsible for expanding the recall to include our VIN. Questions? Is our car safe to drive? If we have a front end collision will the steering wheel air bag work? If the federal safety agency is aware of 420,000 recalls for this same issue will the recall be expanded to cover other VIN? This is an expensive fix and all logic tells me it should have been included in the original recall.

I'm an active duty service member (army) and my name is [xxx]. I am servicing my vehicle out of the vw store located in columbus ga. My concern is that I don't feel safe driving my vehicle due to a recall. I have recently purchased a vehicle that is under the recall for the takata air bag for the driver side. I have contacted my local dealer that I stated above and spoke with the service manager. He informed me that part to fix my car is not schedule to come in until june 2017. Furthermore, he also made it clear that it was not possible to provide me with a loaner/rental until the parts came in. I then reached out to vw of america (case # [xxx]) and pretty much received the same answer, that they do not have a system in place for providing loaners for this recall. Meanwhile I don't feel safe driving this car day to day given that this issue with this recall has claimed more than ten lives and has injured more than a hundred. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
