VW recall: 69bc, driver frontal airbag, NHTSA: 20V785 4/16/21: Today I called local VW dealership, (southpoint Volkswagen, 13940 airline hwy., baton rouge, la 70817, 855-498-0983) to schedule repair of this recall. Dealership service department informed me that they are only scheduling (1) recall repair per day and the soonest time I could schedule is 6/01/21 (@45 days). This seems very unreasonable given the potential danger/threat that this recall presents. Because the recall involves the driver's frontal airbag, the only (2) options available to the owner is to: 1). continue to use the car, knowing the potential danger of "serious injury or death" it presents to self (& therefore passengers as well) or 2) in order to ensure my personal safety, I can "choose" not to use the vehicle (and do what" rent a car"!) second concern: The vehicle's speedometer (analog) spontaneously stopped working while the car was being driven @3months ago (1/03/21) for no apparent reason (car was not involved in an accident; no pot-hole, road hazard, unusual weather, etc. At the time that the speedometer stopped working or during recent use; & vehicle has been properly maintained. Since the car cannot pass Louisiana's annual "safety sticker" inspection without a functioning speedometer, I will have to pay for this repair out of pocket. This seems to be a common problem with many VW cars.
