Description of the problem | Takata recall should have been done before the end of march 2018 according to a letter i received. The mercedes dealership kept telling me that the airbags were ok, or that they do not have replacements as yet. I had an accident yesterday, so i would like to inform every owner of the problem airbags to make sure that they get the new ones which they deserve. I was in the city, on a street and only impacted another car at about 5-10 mph following a turn onto a busier street.. I sustained only superficial injuries (lacerations, contusions & abbrations), and damages to my glk 350. *tt |
