Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Between 11/04/16 and 11/08/16 i left my vehicle with reeves bmw dealership in tampa, fl for the takata airbag recall which they told me they completed. I continued to get warning letters from the nhtsa for this recall and recently i brought my car to a different bmw dealership which told me the reeves bmw dealership reported they completed the work and my airbag could not be changed under the recall. I took my airbag off the steering column and photographed the label on the back which shows the airbag installed in my car was produced in may 2010 which is part of the takata airbag recall batch and was prior to the assembly of my car at the factory. I am very angry this recall work was not completed by reeves bmw dealership as i was told and that i have been placed at unnecessary risk for the past 4 years. I would like assistance in having this takata airbag recall completed so that i am no longer at risk of death or injury as bmw apparently has my vehicle incorrectly marked off as recall completed and will not complete the recall work. I've attached an image of the label on the airbag in my car and the paperwork for the repair which was not done. Thank you for the help.

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.
