Takata recall I am a 21 year old female college student in tallahassee, fl. My parents and I chose a 2006 volkswagen passat to be a safe car for me after an accident, where my previous car(vw jetta) was totaled. Then to find out a little under a year after I purchased the car that the airbags have a recall I have been extremely regretful of this decision. Since that day I have been afraid to drive my car to drive my car each time I get into it I think of how risky it is to drive each time. I have heard stories of drivers throats being slit by the unsafe metal shards that deploy with the recalled airbags. I do not understand how there is still not a fix or means for drivers to be able to drive a car that is safe. I think that it is extremely unsafe and too risky to have one of the main safety mechanism in car to be a threat to drivers as well. When there are recalls on toys people are instructed to immediately return them to the store or at least throw them away and keep the toys away from their children. Now there is a major safety issue with airbags in a car and not his has been done. People have already lost their lives as a result of the faulty air bags and still nothing has been done. I am writing to hopefully get a solution to this issue.

Takata recall I have an '06 passat. Why is it a year after I got the recall letter that I'm still waiting for it to be replaced? I have a 6 year old daughter that I drop off and pick up from school in this car with the killer air bag! My passenger side air bag sensor "sometimes" works. Why the entire car hasn't been recalled, only god knows. This is ridiculous and I'm ashamed more hasn't been done to ensure the safety of passengers of these cars made with short cuts and cheap parts. My life and my daughters life is worth far more than another cheap seat in front of a killer air bag. This is suicide and shame on those who are delaying the fixes because that is potential attempted murder on millions of people and their children.

My vehicle is recalled for this serious problem and vw is not offering a part to fix it or a rental car. It is illegal for my mechanic to turn off the airbag. I feel extremely unsafe driving my car with my child and husband in it as a minor fender bender in which the airbag activates could result in death. It is totally unacceptable that vw is not offering a solution for these car owners today.

Tamara recall: I have called volkswagon and a local dealer about the safety of my daughter or anyone driving this vehicle. I have asked if there is alternative transportation being offered and both the dealer and volkswagon have indicated they are not offering any alternative transportation. They have also indicated that a solution for the airbag and parts are not available. Volkswagon should offer alternative transportation until this can be repaired and the vehicle is safe to drive!!!!!
