Description of the problem | Takata recall after 10 months of receiving a recall notice, the takata replacement bags are still not available from fromaudi dealer. I also received a recall in november regarding fuel pump flange -- after calling my dealer several times, i am told replacement offered by recall notice is not available, may not be for several months - this is fire hazard. Audi leaves me to drive a vehicle with 2 serious defects, which they know about, and make no effort to deal with the recall or offer me a replacement vehicle. How can this be accepted? |
