Description of the problem | When i got passat se i did research and i thought it was a safe car. My first priority to lease a car was safety. On april 2016 i got a letter from vw that airbag on front is not safe and it may causes serious injury or death. It been almost 10 months and still there is no words on when it will be fix. What is going to happen if i get in accident and die? Who would fulfill my place for my kids? I want to change the car or have vw buy my car back. I want to live with my family not die. This is a serious safety issue and needs to be fixed right away. I got in accidentand the front airbag did not open up |
