| Description of the problem | Takata recall for driver and passenger air bags since 2016. Although i have contacted my local mercedess dealership about five times on this issue, i am advised they are still unable to service either airbag. This is of primary concern to me as i am a single 48 year old female, who has an only child (son) who is 12 years of age. Aside from him losing his father in january 2017 - i also take care of my 78 year old mother. There are no other close relatives outside of us so i truly need to take every precaution at safety. Much more than just the usual so i am asking that this request be expedited if at all possible. |
