| Description of the problem | Takata recall. The airbag replacement situation has been going on for over 2 years without a remedy. This is unacceptable as i have trouble selling my vehicle right now because of this. Automakers should be held accountable for selling a car with a defective airbag as well and should be able to offer money compensation to purchase the cars back or something along those lines. Being stuck with an unsellable car is very frustrating. A remedy should have been found for this already after 2 years. Please let me know if there are any solutions available for me. Thank you, frederic |
