6 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 05/15/2016

Takata recall has affected my vehicle and after 7 months the company nor the local dealership has done anything to address the defective part. We have been notified to not allow anyone to ride in the passenger side of the vehicle and this is terribly obstructive to our transportation needs. I believe far too much time has elapsed and still the company nor the local dealership has addressed this very serious issue.

7 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 12/12/2005

My vehicle is under national recall highway safety recall, due to manufacturing issues. I need to trade my vehicle in and I'm being over charged for vehicles that are not worry to be on the highway. I feel I should get an manufacture discount on an used/new vehicle because I should not have to pay for manufactured mistakes and I should not be over charged for vehicles that are not worthy of the price tag on them. Thank you, ms. Yasmeyn annair p. O. Box 280293 nashville, TN 37228.
