Takata recall-I have received yet another recall notice about airbag repair but this is not possible. Waldorf Volkswagen does not have the parts to complete this repair for my vehicle. My airbag light has been illuminated for over a year and I really don't drive the car as a result of this. Why does VW of America continue to send these repair notices but there aren't any parts available yet? this is totally unacceptable!

Takata recall: Received letter from Volkswagen of America, March 2017 informing me to contact the dealer to have the airbag replaced. I did, made an appointment and the next day received a phone call from the dealer that they cannot repair my car because they do not have the parts. I asked when can I expect to have the work done and the service representative said she has no idea. The letter states that the vehicle is unsafe to use because "people have been killed and seriously injured by this defect." I tried calling the telephone number provided and waited for over an hour online before I gave up. I also sent the dealership several text messages to complain about the lack of follow-through, but I have not received any responses. I am afraid of using my car due to the defect. I feel that the dealerships lack of response is unacceptable. I would like to have the dealership provide me with a loaner until and whenever they repair my car. I also would like the dealership to respond to my concerns. I don't know is not an acceptable answer, especially if the failure to fix the car in a timely manner could prove fatal. Please help me.
