Description of the problem	Takata recall - we are first-time parents and had infant twin boys. We had bought this car for more room and safety and then the recall happened. We asked our dealer repeatedly for a fix and even contacted audi usa but they told us there was nothing they could do. We had friends and relatives with other car brands whose dealers gave them loaners or rental cars but audi offered us nothing. Ultimately, we traded in the car because we were so worried.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
