TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016 THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND IT IS NOW DECEMBER WITH NO REPLACEMENT AVAILABLE. I CANNOT IN GOOD CONSCIENCE HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT SEAT FOR FEAR OF INJURY TO THEM SHOULD THERE BE AN ACCIDENT. THIS MEANS I CAN'T USE MY CAR UNLESS I AM THE ONLY OCCUPANT OF THE VEHICLE WHICH SEVERELY LIMITS MY USE OF MY CAR. DO I HAVE ANY RECOURSE AGAINST AUDI?
