5 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 02/23/2017

Received initial recall notice (0717a) of the potentially fatal takata airbag in February 2017 and instructed not to let anyone ride in the passenger side of the car, and was told airbag replacement parts were not available. It is now September, 2017 - over 6 months later - the airbag replacement parts are still not available, we are still having to use a potentially deadly defective automobile but only part of the vehicle since we cannot use the front passenger side, and Mazda has not offered a replacement vehicle. We cannot even sell the car for fair value do to this potentially fatal and at this time, un-repairable, defect. The last recall notice (1317f) instructed us to notify the administrator of the NHTSA if Mazda did not repair the defect within a reasonable amount of time. Over 6 months is not a reasonable period of time.
