Description of the problem	Takata recall - i took my car in to hickory mitsubishi in hickory, nc to get the airbag fixed. I picked up my car in the afternoon. It started to get dark about an hour later, so i turned my lights on. I have no interior lights on my car. I can't see my odometer, shift column,etc. I had to travel a significant distance to get this repair since there is no longer a mitsubishi dealer where i live. Now i have to go all the way back there and sit for another 2. 5 hours while they try to figure out what they did to my electrical system. I'm not sure i want them to even touch my car again.
