| Description of the problem | Takata inflators vin [xxx] 2003 bmw 325i kata inflators , hello , i'm [xxx] and i am very disappointed with bmw and its safety , i have been calling for my safety recall on the drivers side air bag on my bmw 325i 2003 since december of 2015, i was informed that the parts would be ready by spring, i have called several times and they change the date until the end of summer not giving a specific date , or hang up on my call. I think that if the vehicle has a recall it shouldn't be driven knowing that i'm risking my life or others lives . Bmw has been rejecting the repair since early december . If then when will they repair ? And when will they provide me a transportation in the meanwhile? Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
