Description of the problem | Takata recall - it's been almost a year (may 2016) since i was notified that my front airbags needed to be replaced due to the takata airbag recall and i keep checking for updates and am told that my airbags can't be replaced until i receive another notification. I drive this car every day with passengers and am getting frustrated that almost a year later, there is still no replacement available. Also, i've been reading that heat (especially in southern ca), humidity combined with older cars can exacerbate the situation and my car is 10 years old and i live in so cal. If there's any way that i can find a dealership to replace my airbags asap, i would appreciate it or at least have an update on the timing of a replacement |
