Description of the problem	Takata safety recall - high death risk this recall began in february 2016, almost two years ago, and to date there has been no resolution. I have received numerous letters, regarding availability of replacement parts, and each letter pushes my priority group lower, due to the assumption that higher humidity increases the associated risks, however that can vary based on annual weather conditions, even in arizona, where we have had more rainfall and humidity this year. I do not believe for one second that they have been unable to access replacement parts for this recall for two years! Mercedes is clearly stalling and trying to spread out their expense for the recall over several years, rather than taking the hit to their bottom line all at once, without concern for the safety of their consumers, this is completely unacceptable. Nhtsa needs to man up and quit granting mercedes extensions to complete the necessary repairs at the potential peril of the automobile owners. Enough is enough, get the airbags replaced before someone is seriously injured or dies! I can tell you this, if anything happens to anyone in my family, as a result of these explosive airbags, we will sue mercedes and everyone that allowed this to continue to the fullest extent of the law, of that you can be sure! I will not be purchasing another mercedes again, my next vehicle will undoubtedly be a bmw, they have much better safety ratings than mercedes now!
