Takata recall I received a letter in July, 2016 informing me of the recall and asking me to wait until further notice from Mazda. They suggested I not have anyone ride in the passenger seat until repaired. I called Mazda dealer 10-18-16 and still do not have parts. That suggestion is not tenable and what about the danger to the driver? I feel this is an unreasonable amount of time to wait for this recall to be taken care of and repaired. Thank you.

We received the July 2016 recall notice from Mazda for our vehicle. It states: "until this repair is performed, do not allow passengers to ride in the front passenger seat." In reviewing the recall information on your website, it says that the propellant (ammonium nitrate) can become unstable and cause a possible rupture. How can this occur only on the passenger side and not also the driver side of the same vehicle" shouldn't the car be parked and not driven until the repair is complete"
