Takata air bag recall - on May 27th, 2015 a recall to fix my make and model of BMW was issued. To date the manufacturer has not provided the repair parts necessary. It has been 9 months since the recall was issued. Why hasn't more pressure been put on takata and BMW to complete these repairs?

Takata recall: I am currently in communication with state farm agent, terry wood [(434) 872-2813]. she has assured me that an investigation is underway at this time. We are stating that my BMW's side airbags suddenly deployed and unexpectedly causing me to lose power steering and braking ability. As I approached and entered a right turn lane in an street intersection located in stockton, California, my passenger side airbags suddenly deployed. Startled, I tried to pull over to the side of the road, but, with the loss of power steering, I was not able to safely control the vehicle. After making contact with the curb, I had to use all my strength to correct from it and try to make the upcoming right turn, but without power steering, I was not able to make the turn sharp enough leading me to make a wide turn into the oncoming lane. And without the ability to brake properly and safely, there was no way to avoid the impact. Additionally, the main area of the car with all the damage (driver's front) failed to deploy the appropriate airbag. Terry wood is my point of contact with this investigation. We hope to have BMW take some (if not, all) blame in the incident due to faulty airbags and/or unexpected deployment of airbags.
Safety recall for diver-side front air bag was received July 2015. Called for a repair service appointment each month since receiving letter. To date have been told by dealership that BMW does not have the parts available. Have not had any issues but very disconcerting to drive an unsafe vehicle where serious injury or death can occur. BMW should be more responsive to the safety recall and it customers wellbeing.

In May 2015 after learning that my car has a recall on the airbags I took it to BMW of buena park, ca. They refused to replace the airbags (by then only the one from one side) because the airbag light was on. They wanted me to pay $180 to diagnose the airbag light before proceeding with the recall repair. I spoke to a manager and asked him why the charge if it was (at least to me) obvious that the light came on because of the faulty airbags. He insisted that I had to pay for the diagnose and refused to fix the airbag. Now I realize that the airbags from both sides are being recalled. I contacted BMW again and they are still refusing to replace the airbags without first diagnosing the airbag light. I told them that this airbag light appears to be an issue with their vehicles. I have found merchants selling devices online to circumvent the sensor that is sending the erroneous signal to the cars computer (www.ebay.com/itm/161310404862?_trksid=P2055119.M1438.L2649&sspagename=strk%3amebidx%3ait). I still haven't got any help from BMW.
