Takata recall. I have been notified of the recall in April of 2016 and it is now the end of October 2016 and we have no information regarding timing of the replacement or plans to get the replacement part available.

Takata recall I got a letter in April 2016 from Audi about the recall. There has been no further communication from Audi. I have since called Audi USA and my dealership numerous times and my questions go unanswered. What is my recourse ? the car sits in my driveway because I'm not comfortable driving it and trading in in will loose between $3,000 & $8,000.

Takata recall my Audi dealer [Audi of huntington NY] has been telling me for the past few years that they do not have the replacement airbag. I have spoken to them and it is always "on order, we will call you". Then I receive a post card from Audi of huntington to call for the recall service. . . . And same story. As I said, this is the past few years. I can't believe there is no replacement part. Could you inquire so that I do not wind up seriously injured because of my dealer's failure and neglect.

Takata recall I received a notice in February 2016 regarding the recall but as of today October 21 I still have not received the repair notice. I have called numerous Audi dealers as well as the Audi worldwide number who told me they do not have parts and are waiting. I asked when they expect to get parts and they did not know at all. I contacted NHTSA and I was told they did not know when parts would be received by Audi neither. All they could tell me was living in CA I was in zone b and the next on this list after the higher priority high humidity areas. Due to the sheer number of recalls this could mean we may not get parts for years if something isn't done to improve production frequency, produce high quality airbags and make it available to the customers who have a recall notice. I am concerned driving the car with the recall notice as well as the deaths and issues regarding the airbag. We need quality parts to be allocated to Audi in CA as soon as possible. What is the plan to have more airbag parts available as soon as possible for consumers such as myself who has an Audi 2010 A5 to protect my safety while continuing to drive the vehicle?.

This was announced in February! I still don't have a repair. A woman in orange county California was recently killed because the fragments ripped through her body. When will I get a repair? I doubt I can get a decent price on resale because any internet search shows that it is a death trap. Please help us and put pressure the company.

I was sent a recall notice for defective airbags. I live on nantucket island and there are not Audi dealerships here. I have to put my car on a ferry in order to get the airbag problem corrected. The cost was 160 dollars and Audi should be responsible for that as it is impossible for me to have the car serviced with out getting to an authorized dealer. This is a safety issue.
