Takata recall I have been contacting my local Audi dealer several times since January 2017 to fix this issue. Here it is November 2017, to no avail the airbag issue has not been resolved. I'm beginning to feel unsafe driving a vehicle that has problems with the airbag. My airbag repair light stays on constantly. What can I do to resolve this issue.

Takada recall I have been trying to get airbag recalled for over a year and I am told the 69P6 is not available. I think this is high risk since it is older and also in area of high humidity in the summer dealer states they can not get the part (air bag ) to replace it.

Takata recall attempts to have the inflator replaced at two Audi dealerships have failed. I've received two recall letters stating the parts are available. I also attempted to reach audiusa at 800-253-2834 and after waiting a half hour my call was dropped. I'm seeking direction on how to get an Audi dealership to honor the recall. Thank you!

"takata recall" it has been over a year since we have been able to have a passenger in my wife's 2006 Audi A4 wagon due to this airbag recall. We cannot drive together in the front and this is now ridiculous as I cannot fathom why there is no fix yet and no parts. This is truly unacceptable. I want a repair done asap.
