| Description of the problem | Takata recall - i finally received acknowledgement from subaru of america that i have two airbags.. Takata-sourced passenger side frontal airbag and toyoda gosei driver-side airbag located in the center of the steering wheel. The safety recall notice that i received indicates that they will only be replacing the takata-sourced passenger side frontal airbag when parts are available... Possibly not until feruary, 2017. Timmons subaru where i purchased the subaru stated that they will pay for a rental car, but will not pay for the insurance on the rental car... Totally unacceptable. I'm requesting that both manufacturers airbags be removed and do not want them replaced... It's only a matter of time before toyoda gosei's airbags are exploding either before deployment or upon deployment as arc's did recently. Is it possible that you could secure the information on the type of propellent that toyoda gosei is using in their airbags. Thank you for your attention to these issues. |
