I have been calling the dealerships in my area for the past two years if not longer and still they don't know when. My car is nearly 10 years old now, when is Mercedes going to fix it when I am dead?

Why didn't the dealer tell me this when I purchased the car? according to www.airbagrecall.com, it was 2 recalls on the air bags last year 2016, so they knew it was a recall. I could of had and accident and been hurt real bad. I am very upset with the Mercedes dealer and prestiage auto in Rhode Island. I will be taking further actions about this problem. I just found out about the airbags on December 23, 2017.

Takata recall. My car was recalled 3+ years ago and despite my constant follow up the parts are never available. I've complained direct to mbusa. They have no interest and treat these calls as an annoyance. I can't sell my car and I try to avoid driving it. There hasn't been an actual incident but I don't know what else to do. The date below is the date I believe I was first informed.

Takata recall my vehicle currently has an active recall for the airbags, after being instructed to contact a local dealership to have the problem fixed, I contacted Mercedes Benz of jackson. I was told that they did not have the parts in at that time, which I understand. I asked if they could order the parts and was told no and that there was nothing that they could do for me. My understanding is that if my car has a defective part, the dealership is to get the part to fix it. Being told "there's nothing we can do for you is not what I needed to hear, knowing that I am driving around in a car with a bad airbag.

Takata recall -- I have been receiving recall notices from Mercedes Benz corporate in atlanta, ga, for years. Every time I take my vehicle to the dealership for service, the replacement airbags are not available. I have been tossing the old letters when I receive a new one (the latest one is date April, 2016). This has been a serious concern of mine; in that, I am the primary driver of this vehicle and the airbag problem is on the driver's side. I am disabled and have serious problems from radiation/chemo on my left upper side (stage 3 breast cancer). My ribs break very easily and have (on one occasion broken from severe bronchitis). I have not felt safe in this vehicle since receiving these letters. I now have have severe burns (2nd and 3rd degree) on my left hand and arm. I am almost afraid to drive my car. I am a very careful driver, but when you live in the mountains and medical care can be four mountains (driving time 1 hour, 50 minutes) away, you are exposed to many hairpin turns and the possibility of wildlife running into the road. You never know what is around each corner. I do not drive at night, so the "headlight warning" would not be seen for me. I have never received any projection dates as to when this replacement would be available. I have contacted the dealer (three of them) listed on website and none are able to help me. I do not want to fear driving a vehicle that costs (fully loaded with more upgrades) $47,000. That is a lot of money to feel unsafe. Also, my tire pressure light comes on constantly. I have had this checked repeatedly and replaced tires, as necessary. Mostly the tire pressure light comes on when it is cold outside. I live in monterey, va, in the mountains. It is cold here for about 6 months or more. Please help, debbie recall # 201602003
