| Description of the problem | Takata recall - i received a safety recall letter in the mail in july 2016 informing me of the recall of the airbags in the passenger front seat and "until this repair is performed, do not allow passengers to ride in the front passenger seat." it has been 6 months now that i have not been able to use my car as intended. I have emailed the nhtsa 3 months ago explaining my frustration with the lack of speed from subaru to fix this problem. I have waited 6 months now and still have had no word from anyone as to when i can expect this to be remedied. I expect some kind of communication back explaining the process of getting my car back to the way i expected to drive it when i bought it in the first place. 6 months of not being able to use my car as intended is ridiculous and i will take further action if this is not resolved a.
