There is a recall on my vehicle that can cause death and Volkswagen has yet to provide a remedy to fix the recall. I have asked them about switching cars until a remedy is an available and that's not an option they provide. I do not feel safe driving my car, but I have no choice to drive it because I need transportation.

NHTSA, VW has informed me that there is recall on my car that could cause life-threatening injuries to me or my children who drive the car. I first heard about the recall of the airbag in January 2023 on the news. I have contacted my dealer 3 times to get the airbag fixed and they tell me each time that they do not have a solution to fix my car. I believe I have waited patiently for 6 months waiting for a fix while also driving an unsafe car. Shouldn't you do something about this problem?

This recall has been here since January 03 2023. When I called VW they stated it was not dangerous and there was no fix. I-??m concerned driving this vehicle as the recall states my airbag can deploy at anytime sending shards through my body. BW still has no remedy almost 2 months later
