| Description of the problem | Takata inflators-i currently have 2 recalls on my car; one 10/05/17 nhtsa 17v627 and other one from 1/10/18 #18v043 with the airbags. Neither one has a remedy yet and i was told this weekend at the dealer to not let anyone sit in the passenger side due to danger. This is not an option for me. I was also told the earlier recall is also dangerous yet no eta on repairs. I am single parent with college student as well as handicap mother in her 80s ... I need this fixed now..... Just to be told i will be contacted when there is a repair is not an answer. I am terrified to drive the car and have no options on this. Please help put my car in priority line for repair or else i should have lkq loaner until it is repaired. My car suffered flood damage at 4 months of age in 2014 and i am very concerned parts were compromised that could affect this even more! (the car was purchased in south florida and we moved to ga 2015 thus high humidity exposure) |
