| Description of the problem | Takata recall - i am filing this complaint because of the length of the recall going on for 3 years now, and still is not complete. Mercedes has several times pushed out the date that the parts would be available. Now, mercedes is showing that the parts will be available in june 2019. This is a dangerous problem that we are expected to continue to drive with the risk of potential injuries from the airbag inflator being faulty. They should find the means and parts to fix this issues as soon as possible. This shouldn't take over 3 years, and is simply unacceptable. |
