| Description of the problem | Nhtsa recall 15v-323. Subaru notified me of this recall. They suggested no one sit in the passenger seat until the problem is repaired. But they are out of parts and don't know when it can be fixed. In a front or passenger side impact, the passenger air bag could still inflate, without a passenger, thus placing the driver at risk. So what do i do? Stop driving the car until subaru fixes the problem? What can nhtsa do to make subaru fix the problem asap? |
