Takata recall: I received Mazda offer to replace defective part and accommodate for transportation while the car is being repair. The only requirement to have this accommodations is to make an appointment for them to deliver such offer to fix the inconveniences that this brings. I called to make the arrangements but now Mazda refuses to give another transportation while fixing the car, even though this is included in their written offer.

Why does recall only cover the passengers side air bag inflator" what company manufactured the drivers side air bag inflator? I would like the drivers side replaced also. I was told by service department that Mazda will not cover replacement of drivers side air bag inflator. I asked parts department if I could purchase drivers side inflator. They said that the part was discontinued. I don't feel safe driving my vehicle. What is the solution to this problem"
