Takata recall -this recall was communicated in july, 2016. Since then, i have contacted my local dealer numerous times. I'm being told that a replacement is not available. In december, 2017, i get another notice saying the airbags are defective and not to allow a passenger in the car. To wait over a year and still no resolution to the defect is unacceptable!
