I received a takata recall and went to rosenthal Acura to get it replaced. That was completed by rosenthal. I think that was around a year ago. On 04/23/2018 I rear-ended another car. My car was totaled. My speed at impact probably was about 30-25 mph. The car I hit was stationary. My airbags did not deploy. Why not?

I live in naples, italy. I have not been able to get my car fixed for the takata recall. In April, 2017, I took the car to the local Honda dealer. They ordered the part, but it never arrived. I called Honda of America, and they reported that the parts distributor for all of europe has run out of the part I need. It has been six months. How do I get my car fixed?
