"takata recall" I was sent a letter describing this recall and the potential danger to myself of anyone driving the vehicle. It stated that it could deploy at any time and that the shards of metal from the bag could kill or disfigure me and also could harm other motorists. Part still is not available. My question is should I continue driving this vehicle and gamble it wont kill myself or others or can I make them furnish me a vehicle until parts are available for the recall repair? thank you: [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Takata recall... how long are we suppose to ride around in a dangerous vehicle in harms way. The recall went out in February of this year and here it is July with no remedy. I need a loaner vehicle or a new vehicle for this death trap I have. I have a terrible gas leak in my fuel line. The gas smell has moved inside of the vehicle and no one can withstand it. Not only is the smell extremely strong, but the gas leak is even more dangerous than the faulty airbags. Insurance companies total vehicles when airbags deploy, but Volkswagen thinks it's okay for us to ride around in vehicles with faulty, life threatening airbags and faulty fuel lines. This is unacceptable on so many levels and something has to be done and be done immediately.

I have been notified of the recall. The dealership says they can not replace it, no replacement parts. I want a rental car until it is fixed. My life is in jeopardy when I drive, not a great feeling.

Takata recall: I am reading that people are being injured and dying, and the news says to stop driving the car. The dealership has no resolution. There is no time-line for a repair. I used your live chat and was told I could ask for a rental. The dealership said that no rental will be provided, it was up to me to take the risk to drive the car.

Takata recall this issue was reported on 2/9/16. Three months has passed and no solution has been provided. I refuse to drive around in a car not fit for the road. Every day that passes there could be an 11th or 12th death. This is a scary experience. I plan to initiate a law suit against Volkswagen for putting me in harms way and not resolving my issue in a timely fashion. I just want to be safe when I travel, not worry about my car being safe enough to drive.

Takata recall - clock spring airbag malfunction. My 2009 Cc is not included in the recall however I am experiencing the same issues as the 2010 Cc owners vehicle. The airbag light is on and steering wheel functions are not working. I took my vehicle to the volkswagon dealer and they diagnosed the clock spring issue same issue as the recall in model year 2010. If my vehicle has the same malfunction then it should be covered via the recall. The airbag malfunction is a serious safety issue and Volkswagen should take precautions to prevent harm to owners of their vehicles

Issue happened after incident in August 2011 and progressively became worse. Steering wheel will lose electrical power to controls (I.e. stereo controls) and causes airbag warning light to come on and horn will not function at all. Dealer looked into issue and found that the clockspring needed replacement. Clockspring replaced in steering wheel and airbag issue has been resolved but steering wheel control issue still remains along with not having a working horn. VW usa had no known fix for this issue as al wiring is in working order. Dealership requested vehicle be brought back in for a further look.
