| Description of the problem | Takata recall. I received the recall letter and about the chapter 11 bankruptcy filed for takata. I called 2 mercedes dealerships and they have no idea when the parts will be available to fix the takata airbags that have been recalled. They have no estimated timeline for when they expect the parts to be available. Are we supposed to drive the car indefinitely until the parts become available to fix the airbags? |
