2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 02/16/2023

My 2007 Audi A4 is part of the takata airbag lawsuit so I scheduled an appointment to have it repaired at Audi of tampa. I had my car towed there because the battery recently died and I was told I needed to have the key reprogrammed because it would not start after replacing the battery and figured I could have both repairs done at the same time. My appointment was at 7pm but when I arrived nobody had any knowledge of my appointment and was told they do not make appointments that late in the day but a technician would give me a call. I leave my car there and receive a call today from the repair technician tyler king who proceeded to tell me that prior to doing anything to the car he'd have to run a diagnostics test that would cost me $500! what? just to give a diagnosis that I've already been given? insane. So now that I do not have that kind of money what am I supposed to do? tow it back home and have a locksmith reprogram the key and ignore the airbag issue? I feel unsafe in the Audi I once loved and relied on daily and don't know how I am supposed to proceed with this.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 09/10/2022

Many years ago Audi advised that there is a defect with the air bag in my vehicle, and that they would change it for free. I contacted a dealer and they said they would contact me after the part is available. They have done nothing, the defective air bag is still in the car, the company still explains that the airbag can cause serious injury to occupants, and I still drive my family in the car. Now they are suggesting that because the car is nearing 15 years old they may disregard the risk to my family and not take responsibility for the defective air bag. The car has been to the shop, but their current web site does not clearly say, in plain language, that the air bag has been replaced. The language is not written so that an average prudent person can understand. I would like, in straight forward and unambiguous language, to know what the status is with the car.

Failure Date: 05/29/2019

This recall was issued in Feb 2018. I had my car at Audi, mohegan lake, NY for service in July 2018. Parts apparently were not available. I have not been contacted since for the repair. When calling 5/29/2019, I was told I would be put on a waiting list, which has appx 80 people on it. They could not confirm if I was already on from my July 2018 visit. This is dangerous and need a remedy.

My wife received an "urgent" recall for airbags on her 2007 Audi in January 2018. To date, this recall has not been completed. A second recall was issued in June 2018 on another part of part of the airbag which has not been completed. This is rediculous on a recall that could prove fatal should my wife be in an accident. The closest dealerships excuse is that parts are not available ?? after almost two years ?? we could use a little help here.

28 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 01/11/2018

Takata recall I called to schedule a recall repair at my local Audi dealership(fresno, CA Audi/Porsche) and they told me that they didn't have the part and that thy were not sure when a new one would arrive. So it's been about 4 weeks now since I talked to the Audi dealership and I'm driving around with a faulty airbag in my car, this is a little scary. Knowing that if I got in a crash my passenger could be seriously injured or even die. All Audi is telling me every time I try to call is, �we still don't have the part, and we will keep you paperwork on our desk and call you when it's in�. Well, I don't think it takes 4 weeks to get a airbag part in. Don't know what to do, because Audi isn't working with me, and I'm concerned for my occupants safety.

Failure Date: 11/11/2017

Takata recall I was first notified about my recalled airbags a year ago. I have contacted multiple dealers on multiple occasions, and am always told that a repair is not yet available. The last communication with a dealer was today, Nov 11th 2017. How am I supposed to drive a vehicle that has airbags that can eject metal fragments that are stated to cause serious injuries or even death!? they need to have more urgency in this recall to avoid personal injuries or even unnecessary deaths!.
