Takata recall please see attached pdf for my written explanation. For some reason your system would not accept what I had typed here, even though it was well under 1900 characters. Thank you.
Takata recall- sold vehicle in December of 2016 due to worry of airbag deploying and flying metal killing me, which isn't safe as it was recalled and there was no remedy at the time, which substanially lowered the value. Would like to be compensated for loss in value. Have all documentation, please let me know what you need. Thank you
I have contacted Mercedes Benz dealers a few times. They keep telling me that when they get the replacement for the recalled airbags they will contact me. They never did. I received a notification from tk holding Inc that my deadline to replace the airbags is coming to an end. I don't know what to do.
Takata recall - since the inception of the recall and through today, I have been unable to obtain a replacement airbag(s) and have been unable to obtain any information as to when that may occur from the dealership where I purchased the vehicle new. As a result every day I drive the vehicle, based on the notices I have received, I am at risk of personal injury or death. In addtion, if I attempt to sell or trade the vehilce at this time the value of the vehile is dimished for the same reasons.
