| Description of the problem | I have been trying to get my defective airbag replaced since i received notice of this defect which was probably over a few years ago. I've called multiple dealerships and each time i've been told that the parts are on back order. I've read what can happen if the airbag deploys (e. G., serious injury, death) and i have to drive the car every day to work, etc. I have two small children so everyday i put my life and my children's lives in jeopardy. It's a ticking time bomb, but it isn't their lives who are at stake so they don't care. To say it's completely frustrating is an understatement. |
