| Description of the problem | Takata recall. I leased this vehicle and then purchased it from the dealer. He sold it to me after the airbag issues were known and did not advise me of that before purchase. Also i have been given no date on which the deadly airbags will be fixed. I was notified in february 2016. I am afraid my car will be hit and the airbags will kill me. When is something going to be done to force vw to give its car owners a loaner until this issue is fixed? |
