| Description of the problem | Takata recall i received a notice of "a safety recall that requires your immediate attention" notice in feb, 2016. I have been to all the websites, had my car into mercedes service for other items several times, and called all the mercedes 'recall info' phone numbers, and have asked for my replacement through all these channels. I still do not have the replacement, or even a date of when this 'safety recall' situation will be remedied. I am blessed that we have had no specific incident with the inflator malfunctioning and hurting anyone in my family. However, i am not happy that something could potentially happen, per mercedes and nhtsa notifications, but i am powerless to do anything about it short of parking the car. I can't afford to do that. |
