Takata recall. I am still driving around with these unsafe airbags and Audi has no estimate of when the airbags will be replaced. This is dramatically reducing the utility of my car, as I will not drive my family in it, and it's resale value, because nobody wants to buy a car with defective airbags.
The contact owns a 2007 Audi A4. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign numbers: 16V382000 (air bags) and 16V079000 (air bags) however, the parts to do the repairs were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repairs. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Part distribution disconnect.
Takata recall: Takata has not found a fix for this dangerous recall since we were notified in May 2016. My vehicle has not shown any signs of the inflation error thus far, but the recall states if the airbag does inflate, shards of metal can go flying and cause serious injury or death. They recommend not having anyone sit in the passenger seat until there is a known fix of the recall. This is a huge inconvenience and causes worry when driving the car. Almost a year has passed and this needs a resolution.

Takata recall - it's been almost a year (May 2016) since I was notified that my front airbags needed to be replaced due to the takata airbag recall and I keep checking for updates and am told that my airbags can't be replaced until I receive another notification. I drive this car every day with passengers and am getting frustrated that almost a year later, there is still no replacement available. Also, I've been reading that heat (especially in southern ca), humidity combined with older cars can exacerbate the situation and my car is 10 years old and I live in so cal. If there's any way that I can find a dealership to replace my airbags asap, I would appreciate it or at least have an update on the timing of a replacement

Takata recall. Audi appears to be doing nothing much to repair the potentially fatal airbag issue. I received notice from them in the summer of 2016, coming up on one year ago. I've known people who had their takata airbags repaired in their Honda and accuras, etc. I don't think they waited more than a few months. Why the unreasonable delay on Audi's part" how many more fatalities and injuries are to occur before they act"
