Takata recall my car has been on the recall list for over a year, and the dealerships near me still don't have replacement parts. I have no remedy or workaround, and can't take front-seat passengers anywhere without risking their lives!
Takata recall. I'm driving a 2007 in the hot state of Arizona. I can't even get my airbags replaced. After seeing accident after accident in our town of phoenix I feel it's no longer safe to even drive my car. What happens if I am in a major accident and the air bags go haywire" we've called all the Audi dealerships and no one has the part and they keep saying to call back and check again in a few weeks. What am I supposed to do until then"
Takata recall I called to schedule a recall repair at my local Audi dealership(fresno, ca Audi/Porsche) and they told me that they didn't have the part and that thy were not sure when a new one would arrive. So it's been about 4 weeks now since I talked to the Audi dealership and I'm driving around with a faulty airbag in my car, this is a little scary. Knowing that if I got in a crash my passenger could be seriously injured or even die. All Audi is telling me every time I try to call is, 'we still don't have the part, and we will keep you paperwork on our desk and call you when it's in'.well, I don't think it takes 4 weeks to get a airbag part in. Don't know what to do, because Audi isn't working with me, and I'm concerned for my occupants safety.

Takata recall: I received a recall notice 12 months ago concerning a recall on my takata airbag. Although I've contacted the local Audi dealer repeatedly over the last 12 months they continue to say that there is no "solution" for this recall yet. I'm nervous every time I get into my car and I believe that pressure needs to be brought to bear against Audi to implement a timely solution.

Takata recall I was first notified about my recalled airbags a year ago. I have contacted multiple dealers on multiple occasions, and am always told that a repair is not yet available. The last communication with a dealer was today, Nov 11th 2017. How am I supposed to drive a vehicle that has airbags that can eject metal fragments that are stated to cause serious injuries or even death!? they need to have more urgency in this recall to avoid personal injuries or even unnecessary deaths!
Air bags did not work in a accident in 2010. Speed was approximately 25 mpg. Accident involved the right side front panel of the vehicle. The vehicle did not stop at a four way stop. Received recall notice by Audi March 2017. Still no resolution to get airbags fixed.
Takata recall I received a notice in January of the passenger airbag recall. There still is no remedy available for my car. I have needed to rent cars on occasions when I needed the front seat as the only advice I've been given is don't use the front seat. It's be 11 months now. Can I get something done about this?
Takata recall, contacted Audi in Rhode Island (Audi warwick 1517B bald hill rd, warwick (401) 821-1510). They stated that they do not have the necessary parts required to remedy the situation and to call back in another month. That is unacceptable considering the possible damage that can occur if the airbag fails to function properly during impact.

Takata recall: After receiving notice of the passenger side front airbag recall by finding out myself on the NHTSA site on Feb 2, 2017, then received formal notice in March. Nothing else has happened since and no information has come since about when, if ever, a replacement airbag will be available. It has been very inconvenient to lose that seat since I won't allow anyone to sit in it until it is repaired. The communication and more important, action, needs to be stepped up significantly. I have followed up with the dealer since but they have no indication of any time frame for this to be fixed.
