| Description of the problem | Subaru has failed to comply with the takata airbag recall. I began by calling the phone number supplied on the recall letter, but the operator there provided no information about accomplishing this recall. I next tried the subaru website, under recalls. Although the site purported to provide a mechanism to effect the recall, in fact it did not function such that i could schedule such a repair. Third, i tried emailing subaru. As of this writing i have had no response. Finally, i tried calling the subaru 800 number. They were unable (or unwilling) to provide information to effect the repair. |
