Description of the problem	Takata recall i received a letter from bmw of north america in july 2015 about a drive-side airbag recall for my 2006 bmw m3. (the passenger-side airbag had already been replaced under recall.) we are now 9 months since i received that notice and i have had no further communication from bmw. When i call my local dealer they can only say that bmw is telling them parts will be available "sometime this year". When i ask what i can do in the meantime (not drive the car? What?) i am told to not worry too much because there has not yet been an incident in a bmw. I know that a lot of airbags have to be replaced but 9+ months seems like a ludicrously long period of time to have to drive around in a potentially dangerous vehicle.

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.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
