I HAVE BEEN WAITING OVER A YEAR AND PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. I WOULD THINK A SAFETY ISSUE THAT PUTS MY PASSENGERS AT RISK WOULD BE ADDRESSED IN A MORE RESPONSIBLE MANNER.

TAKATA RECALL - I LIVE IN HOUSTON, TX, AN AREA OF HIGH TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY. THESE ARE THE AREAS THAT ARE MORE LIKELY TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE FAULTY AIR BAGS. I GOT MY FIRST RECALL NOTICE IN AUGUST OF 2015 FOR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. NOW, IN APRIL 2016, I GET A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG. AS OF TODAY, I STILL HAVE NOT HAD THE PASSENGER AIR BAG REPLACED! SINCE I AM IN ONE OF THE AREAS MOST LIKELY TO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAGS, ONE WOULD THINK I WOULD AT LEAST HAD THE PASSENGER'S AIR BAG REPLACED. I THINK I HAVE WAITED MUCH MORE THAN A REASONABLE TIME TO HAVE THE PASSENGER'S AIR BAG REPLACED. CAN YOU DO ANYTHING TO SPEED UP THE PROCESS FOR MY CAR REPAIR?
