Consumer Description

TAKATA AIRBAG I AM WRITING TO EXPRESS MY GREAT CONCERN ABOUT THIS POTENTIALLY LETHAL ISSUE WITH MY CAR. THIS RECALL IS OPEN SINCE FEBRUARY 2016 AND YET NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO RECTIFY THIS. I AM FORCED TO DRIVE A POTENTIALLY LETHALLY HARMFUL VEHICLE OVER THE LACK OF ABILITY BY THE MANUFACTURER TO REMEDY THE AIRBAG INFLATOR. I UNDERSTAND THE INVOLVED CONCERNS OF THE SURVIVABILITY OF TAKATA - HOWEVER MY PERSONAL LIFE COMES BEFORE THE ECONOMIC CONCERN OF THE CAR MANUFACTURER AND ITS SUPPLIERS.
