I AM A PROFESSIONAL WOMAN LIVING IN LA JOLLA, CALIFORNIA. MY CAR'S VIN CORRESPONDS TO THE CLASS THAT COULD EXPERIENCE AIR BAG FAILURE AND MY DEATH. THE DESCRIPTION OF ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS THAT COULD PORTEND AIR BAG FAILURE ARE EXISTING HERE. WHY CAN LEXUS NOT REPLACE OR REPAIR THIS BAG IMMEDIATELY??? THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! ALSO, MY PREGNANT DAUGHTER DRIVES A BMW X5 THAT DID RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE DUE TO A FAULTY TAKATA AIRBAG BUT AGAIN, NO REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT IS AVAILABLE! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! WHAT IS THE GOVERNMENT DOING ABOUT MANDATING AN IMMEDIATE SOLUTION?
