Takata recall. This recall was issued at the beginning of 2016 and it still hasn't been addressed by Volkswagen. With such a serious safety hazard as posed by this recall, I would expect that a resolution would have occurred as it's now the end of 2016.

"takata recall", we are trying to work with VW on replacing this car. We are trying to work with VW on a new VW model car; however, VW dealerships will not take the car in trade due to the recall and dealers representing other manufacturers are reluctant to take the car in trade or if so at greatly reduced trade-in value. We have tried contacting VW directly to discuss; however, the wait time on their customer hotline is between 1 and 6 hours, they have no direct email available and their customer service chat line is off the air. Since the "takata recall" addresses the potential to harm occupants of the vehicle and the vehicle is most often used by my wife and with our grandchildren, we'd like to be able to work with VW and their dealerships. Is there anything we can do?

Takata recall. It has been 8 months since VW announced the recall, but they have yet to provide a remedy to solve the problem. All the while I remain driving a vehicle with a defective airbag inflator. No timely resolution to this problem so I am not sure if they are unable to or unwilling to repair the issue. 8 months seems like more than enough time to at least determine the repair.

It's been more then 8 months since the first recall was reported on my 2013 VW Cc airbag. I'm driving about 280 miles per week with a vehicle that is deemed unsafe to drive. I even went to my local sunset VW dealership to trade in my vehicle for a used Lexus. I received a very low offer for my vehicle and was told the dealership will not sell a vehicle with a recall on it would go directly to auction. That's the reason for the low offer. The VW manufacturer should at least take some of the burden of the decreased values of the VW vehicles.

Takata recall. Volkswagen has no information on when this recall will be fixed. I was notified in April 2016 that the airbag in my car was one of the ones that needed to be replaced and was potentially a life threatening situation. I have been very patient in waiting for this recall to be addressed and it has not. In speaking with a Volkswagen representative this morning at their headquarters I was advised that they have no idea when this will be done. I find that a little concerning. I leased this vehicle in good faith and have not been given any information as to when this will be taken care of or any alternatives I have since this is a lease and it is not something I can just go trade-in for another vehicle. I would really like to know that Volkswagen is doing everything they can to take care of their customers. I am getting the impression that this is not the case.

"takata inflators" - I received a letter in April of 2016 stating that my car is subject to the takata airbag recall. The letter stated that "a recall repair is not yet available." It is now September and I have still received no indication as to when the parts will be available nor when the repair will be made. I have called VW finance and they told me to call VW corporate. I called VW corporate and they told me that they do not have a timeline as to when the parts will be in. As far as I am concerned this is unacceptable. The letter from VW states verbatim: "takata has reported that the driver frontal airbag inflator could potentially rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash where the frontal airbags are designed to deploy. In the event of an inflator rupture, metal fragments could pass through the airbag cushion material, which may result in serious injury or death to vehicle occupants." I am concerned for my safety driving in this vehicle!!! I have contacted the dealership and their response is: "remember, there are 60 million cars to be repaired worldwide. Tropical climate areas will be fixed first. Repairs will go South to North for customers, then South to North for dealers. Due to the climate in the northeast the conditions don't match the weather that is the problem. It is, apparently, a combination on heat and humidity. VW did not make the airbags. There are (3) companies in the world making the replacements.that is all the info I have, for now." Unacceptable!!!!!!! Volkswagen will find the parts when someone gets injured or killed!! this is a travesty!!
