general problems of the 2011 Mercedes Benz R350

"takata recall" for a year and a half, I have been trying to have my car repaired, but Mercedes Benz here in reno (and fairfield, California as well) has refused to repair it with the statement that parts are not available. I have called the service department and been told the parts are in stock. I have made appointments, but when I show up for the repair, I am told parts are not available. This month, June 4, 2019, I showed up for an appointment made in connection with the recall notice and was told the parts were not available. On June 14, I had an appointment in fairfield, California; I showed up; and again was told no parts are available. I had another appointment on June 24; but again, I received a call from v. Cruz of Mercedes Benz and told no parts are available. This process has been going for a year and a half. Of late, I have received e-mail notices (second notice, recall reminder, third notice, recall reminder) of which I have made appointments (as described above) but only to be turned away with the statement, no parts are available. It is very disheartening to know there is a dangerous condition in my car that could injure my grandchildren or loved ones and to be subject to the kind of games that Mercedes Benz seems to be playing. On one hand, they send out notices as if they are doing all they can to take care of the recall problem; but on the other hand, they consistently do nothing. I would like to know my options. How serious is the recall? am I placing my grandchildren and loved ones at risk? please let me know. And thank you in advance for giving this matter your attention.

Tl takata recall. The contact owns a 2011 mercedes-benz R350. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 16v081000 (air bags). An unknown dealer was contacted and confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy. The manufacturer was not notified. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

Takata recall remedy remains unavailable. Letters from Mercedes Benz claimed that the remedy would be available in June 2018. Well, they first said March 2018, then said that was an error. Thinking is hard. It is June 2018, and no remedy. Mercedes continues to produce and earn money on tens of thousands of vehicles each month. They could not be inconvenienced to produce parts for their old buckets of junk that may save customers' lives. This is mercedes after all. A cold actuarial calculation of delaying this recall so that some of the cars are salvaged versus any lawsuits resulting from injured customers. Mercedes, I hope that your abysmal approach to making and standing behind vehicles is exposed. We will never buy another of this make. Nhtsa, you continue to be one of the lowest performing government agencies in the history of humanity. Congratulations. How does it feel to capitulate to automakers' every whim at the expense of american lives? I hope that it does not feel good, or at least that you feel something.

Takata recall. 24 months after the initial recall, we still have shrapnel in our dash. Mercedes claims a fix is coming �soon� and that NHTSA granted them an extension to complete a final remedy. Notably, mercedes has been able to manufacture hundreds of thousands of new vehicles in those 24 months, but they cannot manufacture replacement airbags? NHTSA is weak and ineffectual. Mercedes is apathetic and criminal. I am certain their actuarials calculated the cost benefit of a delayed recall r pair and presented the board with the least expensive path forward. Criminal. Evil. Unrestrained.

Takata recall.

Takata recall twenty-two months and counting!! manufacturer has not produced replacement parts, and recall cannot be completed due to unavailable remedy. Interesting that Mercedes Benz has continued to produce and sell millions of vehicles in that time, but they cannot produce new airbags.

Takata recall: this vehicle was involved in a recall campaign for over 12 months and was never repaired due to lack of available parts. The NHTSA VIN lookup tool now lists no active recall on the vehicle. Why not? when will parts be available? how could ke this possibly be taking so long? perhaps it been so long that NHTSA's long-term memory has failed.

Takata recall. Vehicle recall remedy taking excessive amount of time. No remedy available, no accountability available, no non-bankrupt parts supplier available, and no action by NHTSA available. Time to hold daimler benz responsible for this nonsense.

Takata recall #16v081 mfg recall #2016020003 recall date Feb 11,2016 my wife is the primary driver of this vehicle, and I have great fear for her safety every time she gets behind the wheel. Please advise when this will be remedied.
