 Description of the problemTakata recall air bag fault light is on non-stop, a recall for airbag is issued, concerned that if airbag deploys i will be killed by the shrapnel. Car is not worth the repair to the airbag fault light, as the airbag it will deploy is dangerous. Vw of usa cannot help me. Can't sell the car as is... Too dangerous. Also a wandering electrical problem that causes doors to be unopenable from the outside... Never know which door or how many will not open. Today it is the driver's door. Have been paying on it, but haven't driven it (out of fear) since august '15. I owe $2045 on it... Want vw to buy me out and scrap it. Car woke up with the airbag fault light one day. Vw usa is very sorry for my problem, but no fix available/no buyout.
