Takata recall mb issued a recall for the passenger side takata airbag in Feb 2016. We still have not had the airbag replaced. We can't use the vehicle due to risk of injury or death in even a minor accident resulting in the deployment of the faulty airbag with an inflator that could cause explosion of metal fragments impacting passengers. Nhtsa recall number 16v081.

5 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem of the 2012 Mercedes Benz GL450

Failure Date: 02/09/2016

Takata recall - I am filing this complaint because of the length of the recall going on for 3 years now, and still is not complete. Mercedes has several times pushed out the date that the parts would be available. Now, mercedes is showing that the parts will be available in June 2019. This is a dangerous problem that we are expected to continue to drive with the risk of potential injuries from the airbag inflator being faulty. They should find the means and parts to fix this issues as soon as possible. This shouldn't take over 3 years, and is simply unacceptable.
