Description of the problem	Bmw north america issued recall re: drivers front airbag module last march 2016. To date the bmw has been out of parts to comply with this recall. I believe bmw north america is not taking this recall seriously. According to the saftey risk: inflator may rupture resulting in metal fragments striking driver. That seems like a serious risk to go unresolved for 6 months. Given the serious nature of this risk, i would like the nhtsa put pressure on bmw north america to get the damn parts and make the repairs. Recalls are useless if car mfg don't make the repairs timely. Do your job and require bmw north america to make the repairs timely or face fines and penalties considering the safety risk.
