| Description of the problem | Takata recall -- this is regarding the recall of the 2006 subaru impreza passenger airbag. I received a letter this year (in march 2017) letting me know that the airbag was subject to recall because of serious mal-function... Serious enough that they suggest i not have anyone sit in the passenger seat. Since then i have heard nothing from subaru... Not even a note saying when they anticipate that fix would be ready. I find this not only a serious lack responsiblity on their part. I really think they should be require to provide a fix for this serious issue and that they should notify all concerned persons within 30 day maximum and that a fix must be available by the end of this year.... I would appreciate a response from you concerning this issue. |
