Takata recall I am a very safe and cautious driver. I am concerned now that I have received this recall notice two months ago and there is no remedy as of yet. I am worried all the time now while driving that someone is going to cause an accident and I will be involved. This is a very scary thing to have defective and I want it fixed asap! also there are so many vehicles out there with this recall too!! I am not comfortable and do not feel safe anymore in my vehicle. Let us get this fixed!
