| Description of the problem | "takata recall" vw is dragging their feet and pushing back on the nhtsa about this recall and the public is suffering over it. I called both douglas vw summit, nj and vw of america corp offices and no one knows when this will be available to fix. Meanwhile my wife rides around with a grenade in front of her. Vw corp refused me a loaner until they get this fix available. Meanwhile yet another tragic death in texas from the shrapnel cutting the jugular vein and corroded artery of this poor girl. Who is next, while vw drags their feet. Recall notice was dec 2015 or jan 2016 |
