Description of the problem	Takata recall- adaptive steering fault-my vehicle was purchased on november 16, 2016 and in that time its been to the dealership 3 times for an adaptive steering fault warning that came on shortly after purchasing the vehicle, to which no one could figure out why. By my third attempt to bring this to the dealership they finally told me that had to replace the whole steering wheel. The dealership then showed me a notice that was sent out back before i bought my car that this was an issue regarding the steering this notice was dated november 3, 2016. I originally bought this vehicle for its safety due to having a 5 year old and currently pregnant, then to find out that this had a defect before purchasing that i was unaware of and yet lead to believe it was still safe. Then i received a recall for the drivers side airbags not fully filling up and those had to be replaced. I have called back in june when i received the letter and have been told that they are still waiting for the parts to come in. It is now september 26 with no answers on when these two will be fixed for a 4th time. I was told that when replacing the steering wheel i might lose out on some of the technology that i purchased my car with and i expect some kind of compensation for this. The steering defect warning would randomly come on, sometimes when i turned the car on, sometimes when i turned the wheel, sometimes would turn off and then randomly come back on. The dealership did do a software update which changed the feel of the steering wheel completely and the warning came back on two days later. As you can see this brand new vehicle isn't even a year old and has been in the shop more than my used car. Every time i have to leave my car and they refused to give me a loaner car making me miss work every time.
