Description of the problem | Takata recall: i received a safety recall notice in july of 2015 regarding the front passenger airbag inflator. Recall #15438. I have had my vehicle in to the dealer multiple times and am still being told that there is "no remedy" for this recall. I am concerned for the safety and well being of the vehicle occupants should this vehicle be involved in an accident and the airbags deployed. It has been over 17 months and this safety concern is effecting my use of this vehicle. It is currently my only vehicle and it is imperative that i be able to utilize it on a daily basis without fear of serious consequences should there be an accident. Yesterday the dealer advised me to turn off the passenger side airbag if there is a switch allowing me to do that. I believe that action also puts the vehicle occupants at risk and is not a satisfactory remedy. |
