| Description of the problem | Takata recall. I received a safety recall notice in the mail with instructions on getting the front passenger airbag replaced. The notice specifically states in bold letters "until this repair is performed, do not allow passengers to ride in the front passenger seat". When i contacted the my subaru dealer, minooka subaru, the first appointment i could get was friday june 8, 2018. That is 7 weeks away ! That is an unreasonable amount of time to complete the repair, if i have to transport 5 passengers in my car (my wife and grandchildren, i'll have to take two cars ! Again that is unreasonable. |
