“Takata recall: have been receiving recall notices about years (first recall april 2016). Made several appointments to replace, but they were out when I arrived. Currently I've had an air bag on order to be held in my name since june 2018. Still no success.”
NHTSA complaint #11124749, filed 2018-09, 2,000 miles“It is has been over a year and we are still waiting for an airbag replacement. This is quite dangerous and we believe that waiting for more than one year is too long.”
