| Description of the problem | "takata recall" for driver airbag inflator have received three recall notices over the last eighteen months and have visited egolf moters in brevard, nc three times. Each time they say they can get only two parts per week. Today they said they are working on ausust 2015 now. They are working on a first-come-first- serve plan. "takata says the ammonium nitrate propellant doesn't cause problems until the degration process has proceeded a very long way, and then the results fairly quickly go to rupture". They say the process could take 10 years, while some lawyers say 7 years for some. Shouldn't they be changing the oldest first? |
