TAKATA RECALL. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHEN MERCEDES IS GOING TO HAVE A FIX FOR MY CAR? THEY DON'T SEEM TO BE WORKING ON THE PROBLEM. I HAVE RECEIVED A COUPLE OF NOTICES THAT THEY ARE GOING TO START REPAIRING THEM BUT THEN SEND ANOTHER NOTICE MONTHS LATER THAT IT'S BEEN DELAYED AGAIN.
TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 MERCEDES-BENZ SLS. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 16V081000 (AIR BAGS) AND 17V017000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS. THE DEALER (MERCEDES-BENZ OF SARASOTA, 4754 CLARK RD, SARASOTA, FL 34233, (941)-275-1293) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDIES.

TAKATA RECALL
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR OVER 10 MONTHS FOR A SOLUTION TO THIS TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL AND THERE STILL IS NONE. OTHER MANUFACTURERS ARE FIXING THEIRS (BMW)...WHY IS MERCEDES NOT ABLE TO FIX THEIRS? THIS IS A DEADLY PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO FIX.
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
