I specifically checked for any vehicle recalls when purchasing this vehicle and even though it was more than I wanted to spend, I wanted a car that would not have a takada airbag recall because the Lincoln mkz I previously owned had the takada airbag recall and there was no resolution. I was terrified when my daughter totaled the mkz and I specifically wanted to purchase a vehicle with no airbag recall. Today 02/25/2019 I was informed for the first time that the Mercedes Benz I had purchased had a takeda airbag recall. That recall goes back to 01/1990! how is it possible that the VIN # search stated this vehicle had no recalls when I purchased it, that information should have been transparent and disclosed. This should be a violation of my right, especially since I specified that I did not want a vehicle with an airbag recall. Now I am in debt for a vehicle that has a serious recall with no resolution. Again fearful and stressed because it was a gift for my daughter. This needs to stop. Huge corporations preferring to settle individual serious accidents or casualties instead of fixing the issue because it is not cost effective. I was lied to intentionally to ensure a sale of their vehicle without disclosing full information.

I recieved a recall on my vehicle for electrical grounding and inadvertant airbag deployment. However despite multiple calls to the local Mercedes Benz service center for the last past one month, I was told the "part" was not available and that they were waiting for it from the company. I feel one month is quite a long time to get a"part" which is O a recal safety issue. I wonder if you could please do the needful

Takata recall. Consumers have been in a waiting period for a tragedy to happen with the SRS. When will a solution be provided by the manufacturer and available to consumers? I do not want anything to happen to me or my family members because of a slow or no response in solving this SRS problem. I do not need the money, but I do want to keep my health and life!!
