Volkswagen did not issue a rental car to me. I have no alternate transportation. I also live in a humid environment where the driver's side airbag is more of a risk.

Takata recall - recall was issued in February 2016. It is now October 2016 and VW has not release appropriate solutions to this recall. I am extremely concerned for my safety and I would like VW to issue notices for a proper airbag recall solution in a quick manner. Consumers should not have to wait for an excess of 8 months for a viable solution.

Takata recall. I am a very concerned husband of a wife who drives a car affected by the takata inflator recall. Volkswagen ag is taking an unacceptable amount of time fixing the recall of an item that clearly is a life/death risk. I am disgusted by Volkswagen's lack of urgency with the issue. I want to know what my options are as the little consumer who spent hard-earned money to buy from a multi-billion dollar corporation.

I still have not received a notice that the parts for the repair are available. Their website states that they don't have a fix yet!!! this should not be taking this long and am worried about driving the vehicle. I have not received a notice from VW about this recall either.
