Takata recall. The recall was announced in may, but there is no remedy yet available. In five months, I think it should be possible to figure out a replacement inflator and offer it as a service, particularly since the system is potentially deadly. Even a partial remedy of disabling the airbag would be preferrable. As of 9/9/2016, the following is listed "remedy: repair solution pending. Recall status: recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available".

Takata recall the driver airbag inflator was recalled in February of 2016 and the passenger airbag inflator was recalled in may 2016. It is now December 2016 and Audi has no timeline on when the airbags will be replaced. I am forced to drive in a vehicle with serious safety concerns every day. This problem has not been remedied in a timely manner and is risking the safety of consumers such as myself.
