Takata recall: the replacement of these defective airbags is taking way to long! this is a dangerous situation and something needs to be done to remedy this! there has to be more manufacturers than takata. What airbags is Subaru putting in their new cars? they haven't stopped selling new vehicles because of the airbags! they should be forced to put the new airbags in the recalled cars! this needs to be addressed right away, there is no excuse for this, Subaru sales have not been put on hold and we shouldn't be put on hold either!!.
