Takata recall: First recall notification (69N2) came in April 2016 for driver front airbag. Second notification (69O2)came in July for passenger front airbag with the following: "Audi recommends avoiding use of the front passenger seat whenever possible until the recall repair has been performed." Seriously?! once can assume they recommend avoiding use of the driver seat as well. I believe waiting nine months for a repair is excessive, irresponsible and dangerous.

Takata recall. I was notified back in July that my car has this faulty and dangerous air bag on the passenger side of my car and that I should not drive the car with a passenger in the front seat.

Takata recall the driver airbag inflator was recalled in February of 2016 and the passenger airbag inflator was recalled in May 2016. It is now December 2016 and Audi has no timeline on when the airbags will be replaced. I am forced to drive in a vehicle with serious safety concerns every day. This problem has not been remedied in a timely manner and is risking the safety of consumers such as myself.

It is 11-06-2016 and there is no attempt to fix my car. This recall has been issued for months and Audi has not provided any solution other than no one can ride in the front passenger seat. This is unacceptable. This is my son's car and we are in one of the more dangerous zones according to the data for these air bags to fail. I would like something done asap.
