TAKATA RECALL BOTH FRONT AIRBAGS IN THIS CAR HAVE BEEN RECALLED AND IT APPEARS TO ME THAT MERCEDES-BENZ IS NOT SERIOUSLY INTERESTED IN FIXING THE PROBLEM. I HAVE HEARD NOTHING FROM THEM ABOUT THE DRIVER AIRBAG RECALL IN 18 MONTHS EVEN THOUGH THEY PROMISE TO FIX IT BY SEPTEMBER 2018. I OFTEN DRIVE TO FLORIDA STAYING THERE FOR A WEEK OR SO. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE HUMID ENVIRONMENT THERE. I WOULD THE RECALL WORK TO BE COMPLETED SOON. I HAVE ATTACHED COPY OF THE 4 LETTERS RECEIVED FROM MERCEDES-BENZ. THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL--THIS RECALL IS NOW ABOUT 3 YEARS OLD AT LEAST BUT THERE STILL SEEM TO BE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS. WHAT ARE YOU OR MERCEDES-BENZ DOING ABOUT THIS? PEOPLE ARE BEING INJURED--MERCEDES ITSELF DOES NOT YET HAVE AN INCIDENT--BUT IS IT REALLY WISE TO WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED? I HAVE TO ENTER A DATE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS FORM BUT NO DATE IS RELEVANT SO IT IS A RANDOM DATE JUST TO BE ABLE TO SUBMIT THIS FORM.
