| Description of the problem | I received a recall notice on my air bag for the passenger frontal airbag inflator could rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash where the supplemental frontal airbags are designed to deploy. This defect report is in response to takata dirs 16e-042, 16e-043, 16e-044.. Just last week my air bag light came on and when i received this recall i am worried about the air bag being defective. I called the denver, co dealer and they tell me they don't have the parts yet. The recall was as of june 2017. I am concerned driving a car with a defective air bag. The denver dealer tells me they don't have the part and the parts are being sent out to high humidity areas first and denver with be last. The denver dealer didn't have a estimated time when they would receive the parts. They said the motor vehicle department would be sending out a notice eventually. Very concerning. |
