While driving 45 mph (posted speed limit) on a single lane public road I was forced to make a quick evasive maneuver to go around a small truck stopped on road looking to make a left turn, and drove over raised earth that was alongside road shoulder. Both side airbags ( passenger and driver) deployed even though car was never in an accident.

NHTSA safety recall 16V-668; owner was sent a recall notice 13 Sep 2016 regarding possible loss of air bag and seat belt pretensioner deployment but that parts were not currently available, a follow-up notice would be sent when they were. Owner waited until Feb 2017 and contacted local dealer who confirmed parts still not available. Owner again contacted local dealer in July 2017 and was told parts still not available. Complaint is that it is taking an unreasonable amount of time to remedy a very important safety issue.
