Takata recall - I have been waiting almost 2 years for the local dealer to obtain the parts to perform the recall work. Recently, the dealer called to say that the parts finally became available, but then called back to say that they did not have the parts because they were already gone.

Takata recall - no fix but keep sending notices that it will cause fatal injuries. Mercedes knew these were defective and used them anyway, along with a lot of other manufacturers. They should be buying these vehicles back if there in not an option to repair a "safe" car that can be fatal if your "safety" airbags deploy.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2009 Mercedes-Benz C300. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign numbers: 16V081000 and 16V363000 (air bags). The parts to do the repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer (keyes european, 5400 van nuys blvd, van nuys, ca 91401) was contacted and confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy. The manufacturer was contacted at 800-367-6372, but was not able to confirm when the parts were to become available. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

Takata recall - I've been waiting almost two years, no replacement yet available. This is unacceptable. Even though my vehicle is registered in Vermont, I spend the winters in Florida, a high humidity state! the reports say the humidity can make the air bag fail. I want my airbags replaced now, before they fail and I die from it.

Takata recall - I have 3 open recalls and my dealership is unable to perform the repairs since they don't have the parts. Is it safe to keep operating the vehicle with potentially faulty air bag?

Takata recall - nhsta recall number 16V081 and 17V017 and nhsta recall number 15V711 regarding the SRS control model. I have received several notices of these 3 very dangerous and urgent recalls. My vehicle is subject to these recalls and no remedy has been provided for all. I have contacted the manufacturer and Mercedes Benz dealership to have these recalls fixed, but I am told they have no parts to fix the recall, no remedy has been provided and there is nothing they can do to address the recalls - meanwhile, I am at risk every time I get behind the wheel and continue to receive notices about how dangerous this recall can be, life threatening. Now takata is filing bankruptcy and it has been years since the recalls were issued - why is there no remedy available to fix this? no dealership will address the issues, it in just an on going, never ending game. I want to know how I can fix my defective car before my wife, children, or myself are injured or killed due to the severity of this specific recall.
