| Description of the problem | Takata recall - nhsta recall number 16v081 and 17v017 and nhsta recall number 15v711 regarding the srs control model. I have received several notices of these 3 very dangerous and urgent recalls. My vehicle is subject to these recalls and no remedy has been provided for all. I have contacted the manufacturer and mercedes benz dealership to have these recalls fixed, but i am told they have no parts to fix the recall, no remedy has been provided and there is nothing they can do to address the recalls - meanwhile, i am at risk every time i get behind the wheel and continue to receive notices about how dangerous this recall can be, life threatening. Now takata is filing bankruptcy and it has been years since the recalls were issued - why is there no remedy available to fix this? No dealership will address the issues, it in just an on going, never ending game. I want to know how i can fix my defective car before my wife, children, or myself are injured or killed due to the severity of this specific recall. |
