I bought a care from Mercedes Benz in 2015 in pompano beach, florida. On may 2016, I had received a letter from Mercedes Benz stating that there is a defect that has been detected with driver-side seat airbags. In August 2016, I had received another letter stating that the passenger ¿side airbag inflator housing in my vehicle may rupture due to excessive internal pressure. Since I have received those letters, I have been really terrified to the idea that I and my kids are at risk if I have an accident. I had been involved in a deadly accident in 2012; I am alive today because the air bag was working properly. Since I have received that notice, I have to limit my driving. I have got to the point now that I am so scared that I am afraid of driving on any highways and expressways with the car. I have a tremendous level of anxiety and I am terrified by the idea that I am driving a car with an air bag defect. I called mercedes twice to seek for options that would if not resolve the issue but at the minimum alleviate my hardship, but they are not willing to do anything for me. They said that they are working on resolving the issue; I just have to continue to drive the car. I have offered them to; 1-give me a loaner while they are working on solving the issue, and I will continue to make my regular monthly payments. 2-give me a reasonable discount amount on another vehicle, so I can trade my vehicle for another one without that safety issue. They have refused to help me in any shape of forms. I am defenseless and hopeless. I know how powerful companies like Mercedes Benz are, that the reason I am turning to you in order to come to my rescue. I have to drive to work and take my kids to school every day. I can continue to drive a vehicle that is putting my like and two precious kids at risk. Please help me out.
"takata recall" mercedes-benz USA has notified me that there is a defect in the driver-side airbag inflator and it may rupture due to excessive pressure. They have not provided a date for me to bring the car in for repair therefore we are currently driving an unsafe vehicle that may cause bodiily injury or death to me or other members of our family. I want the NHTSA to contact the mercedes-benz USA and insist that they provide us with a safe vehicle until they correct the problem with our car.
Takata recall I received a notice of "a safety recall that requires your immediate attention" notice in Feb, 2016. I have been to all the websites, had my car into mercedes service for other items several times, and called all the mercedes 'recall info' phone numbers, and have asked for my replacement through all these channels. I still do not have the replacement, or even a date of when this 'safety recall' situation will be remedied. I am blessed that we have had no specific incident with the inflator malfunctioning and hurting anyone in my family. However, I am not happy that something could potentially happen, per mercedes and NHTSA notifications, but I am powerless to do anything about it short of parking the car. I can't afford to do that.
