Takata recall: received recall notice from Mercedes Benz in February, but they have no replacement part at this time. I need the use of vehicle, but am afraid to use because of the recall. Mercedes benz is not doing anything for their customers as they are saying the car should be safe to drive. Is there anything that can be done to get a loaner vehicle or get mb and takata to come up with replacement part or reimbursement for lost use of vehicle?.
Takata recall, I have been notified that my vehicle contains the defective air bags however no solution has been provided and given the nature of the issue the vehicle is not safe to drive. I have been unable to drive this vehicle for over 18 months since we were first aware of the issue.
Car has been under recall for almost 2 years and they still have no resolution. They continue to say that they cannot predict when the air bags will be available.
