Takata recall received a letter April 2016, hearing now they are not fixing this issue, while 16 people have been killed or 180 injured - due to exploding with so much force and spew shrapnel into driver and passengers, it's like driving a suicide car every day, scary! I'm a widow, on a fixed income afraid to drive my car, which is all I rely on now to get around.

Takata recall it has been over a year since being notified about the takata airbag recall for our 2012 Volkswagen Passat. The letter from Volkswagen notifying us of an important safety recall was dated April 2016. This safety recall has affected our use of the vehicle since we do not want to drive a vehicle that has an outstanding safety recall. It has also affected resale of the vehicle since we do not want to sell a vehicle that has a safety issue. Do we have to wait for an accident, injury, or even death before something is done?

I had taken my car to get the spring wire replaced back when the recall came out. I wasnt having any trouble with it then. They fixed it with what I assume was a faulty spring wire. So now all my components on my steering wheel do not work, my horn does not work and my airbag light is on with it reading airbag error. I have looked it up and it says faulty spring wire, which is weird because I thought they replaced it with a good part and now because ive already gotten the recal done they wont do it again under recall.
