| Description of the problem | Takata recall. Nhtsa recall # 19v010. We live in dallas and are again at the front end of our hot time of the year. It seems hot and or humid weather could cause the takata inflator to be more likely to explode. Mercedes seem to have no idea when this issue will be addressed. Nor do they seem very concerned about the well being of the owners of these vehicles. What can the nhtsa do to have mercedes buy back these vehicles or otherwise help owners to purchase a replacement mercedes? |
