Air Bag Not Deploy problems of the 2014 Volkswagen Passat

My 2014 vw Passat turbo has an issue with no horn, nothing on steering wheel works and air bag light is on the dash. The local vw dealship moses vw of barbroursville, wv told me the air bag will not deploy at this time bc the clock spring needs replaced. Vw reps told me it is not a recall just an extention of warranty to 120,000 miles. My car has 131,000 of course. My wife drives this car and was almost in a bad wreck bc she had no horn and the bag will not deploy which is very scary. How is this not a recall? I have an appt to have it replaced at moses but I want this changed to a recall. It is a complete safety issue. I hold a masters degree in safety myself and am very concerned not just for myself but for others. I love the vehicle other than this issue. Enter message.

Takata recall. I received a recall from vw for the takata airbag. In the description, on cars. Com, it says "in the affected vehicles, debris may contaminate the air bag clock spring, a spiral wound, flat cable that keeps the air bag powered while the steering wheel is being turned. This contamination may tear the cable and result in a loss of electrical connection to the driver's frontal air bag. Consequence a loss of electrical connection to the driver's frontal air bag will prevent the air bag from deploying in the event of a vehicle crash, increasing the risk of injury. " this is exactly what has happened to my vehicle. Nothing on my steering wheel works, not even my horn. I went to vw, and they replaced the takata air bag, but did not replace the broken clock spring because they say my car was not included in the recall for the clock spring. I think this is a major safety concern. I was told that my driver side airbag will not deploy in the event of an accident. One of the reasons I purchased this car was for the airbags and the safety features. How is there not a recall on my vehicle. It did exactly what said "may happen. ".
