| Description of the problem | Takata recall . It has been over 6 months since receiving a notice from audi north america relating to the takata airbag inflator recall on this vehicle. I phoned the dealership last month and they said they still don't have a fix for this recall. I feel audi should be more proactive in fixing this issue especially if it could be life threatening to drive the vehicle. I do not want to wait and see if metal shards will go flying thru me in the event of an airbag deployment. Nothing has happened yet but i want this recall issue fixed by the dealer. |
