| Description of the problem | Takata recall/subaru recall campaign wqr-53 nhtsa recall no. 15v-323 received a recall notice in may 2015 explaining that the airbag was recalled and would need to be replaced. Letter states that until the repair is preformed, do not allow passengers to ride in the front passenger seat. I recently received another letter with the same information stating that when subaru acquires a sufficient supply of parts to perform the repair, they will contact me about making an appointment. I called subaru 6 months ago and was told that a dealership should "lend" me a vehicle until the repair is complete. I left several messages with dealerships in the area and no one returned my phone call. It has been over a year and i am not able to have passengers in my vehicle. I use my car for work and i need this fixed. It is not safe to drive this vehicle and i do not want to have my children in the car until it is fixed. |
