Takata recall - driver side airbag has been recalled for over 12 months - today I received the second notification from BMW. I have been unable to have BMW make the repair in over a year due to unavailability. What is "within a reasonable amount of time" that this complaint should be made?

Takata recall. We were notified in July 2014 of the problem and as of now BMW still does not have the ability to replace it. This is far from timely!

I have called my local dealership new country motor cars of hartford, ct only to be told multiple times that there are no replacement parts to complete the remedy for these recalls. It has been over two years since the recall was sent out.

Takata recall: In July 2015 received notice of recall due to driver's side air bag deficit. Have called 2 dealers several times in attempt to obtain replacement during the past year. Have consistently been told that I'm on a wait list and that replacement parts are not available. Although there has been no incident or failure, one year seems an excessively long time to wait given the safety risk. Complaint issued by phone but VIN not available at the time.
