Takata recall - why has the NHTSA granted an extension to priority group 4 vehicles? mbusa has made very little effort to address the airbag recall and having the NHTSA allow them to continue to drag their feet is unacceptable.

Takata recall there has been an outstanding recall on my vehicle since 2016 which states if involved in a crash metal fragments may come through the airbag and inflict serious bodily injury on the driver and/or the passenger. What remedy do I have as we are now in 2018 and this has still yet to be fixed?

As of December 21,2017 I am still trying to get my takata airbags replaced as a result of the recall. I keep getting legal notices to visit airbagrecall.com, register my car, and go to the local dealership, but Mercedes Benz of baton rouge still cannot replace them. I do not know where else to go or what else to do. This has been going on for a year or more.

Takata recall for driver and passenger air bags since 2016. Although I have contacted my local Mercedes dealership about five times on this issue, I am advised they are still unable to service either airbag. This is of primary concern to me as I am a single 48 year old female, who has an only child (son) who is 12 years of age. Aside from him losing his father in January 2017 - I also take care of my 78 year old mother. There are no other close relatives outside of us so I truly need to take every precaution at safety. Much more than just the usual so I am asking that this request be expedited if at all possible.

Mercedes dealerships continue to state that they are waiting for mbusa to give them the remedy for the airbag replacements. No specific date of injury, are they waiting for an injury to occur? takata is going bankrupt, their website provides a airbag replacement link which sends us to the dealerships whom refuse to replace the airbags. They have had this same excuse ever since I learned of the defect.

Takata recall - I keep calling the local Mercedes Benz of alexandria and Mercedes Benz usa, for over 1 year and a half, they keep telling me that parts are available to replace the existing driver and passengers air bags. It is almost 2 years with the recall and still no parts available to correct the recall. I am not comfortable driving the vehicle fearing getting injured do to a malfunction. It is unfair to put drivers and passengers in such a great risk and fear. Also, I have another 2012 glk Mercedes Benz I am unable to sell since the recall was issued, as purchasers turn away when they learn of the recall. I am already at a loss about $4,000, in car depreciation sitting in my driveway unable to sell do to the recall.

Takata recall my dealership (lokey Mercedes clearwater fl) says to each of my inquiries "parts unavailable, no further information". Mercedes Benz themselves say same thing plus "drive your car, this recall is a safety precaution". I don't feel like a solution is in sight. Although the takata airbag has not yet malfunctioned, I am driving a potentially dangerous car. Please help.

Have received communications from Mercedes Benz, beginning May 2016, stating problem with air bags which could cause injury and even death. Have called Mercedes Benz U.S.a. several times as well a local dealer and answer continues to be "parts are not available yet". should I discontinue use of this vehicle based on their warning of injury and even death?

- Irvine, CA, USA

Takata recall since May 2016 or earlier, I have been following up with dealer as to when the defective airbag that pose a personal safety risk will be replaced. But almost a year and half later, dealer still states that no available parts are available for replacement. A lot of other cars of other makes and models have already been replaced but mine still has not yet. In the meantime, there is no schedule even as to when this would be fixed. Shouldn't there be a deadline? in the meantime, I am still taking safety risk everyday and it is hard to sell the car.
