    Takata recall contacted dealer about recall and was told "hasn't been determined what parts are defective and parts are not available." really?? So, i'm assuming all production of new vehicles have stopped since they don't have parts available.

    Takata recall - airbag not available to be replaced. Feel unsafe due to this recall. Whom do we direct lawsuits to, if seriously injury or death occurs, due to big companies, using poor cheap quality materials. Recall has been as long as may 2016. Dealership keeps saying, they don't have the part.
