Takata recall: I believe its been about a year since the recall was announced. I have called the dealer several times but they always say the parts are not available. This is not a complaint about the dealer. It is about General Motors. I have parked the car for a year but continue to pay license and insurance. If they can't get the parts, they should buy the cars back at the average nada/blue book value. Then, they can store the cars until the parts are available. I know that there have been millions of cars recalled; but GM should be responsible for getting them fixed in a timely manner. I believe they could get them manufactured by someone else or a variety of companies. They are protecting their earnings, stock price, and shareholders. They should be fined for every day that they drag this out. And, that fine be on a per car basis, with the owner of the car reaping the benefits of that fine. That would get them to move faster, and find manufacturers that will get the parts needed
