Takata recall...recently had the air bag control module replaced. At a cost to me. The dealer indicated that this is not part of the recall. Is this part of the problem with takata airbags or is it separate many thanks. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
