Takata recall in March 2016 I received a letter informing me of a defective front air bag. The letter mentioned the parts were not available but I would be notified when they would become available. I have had my vehicle serviced several time since. The last was June 26, 2017. Each time I am informed the parts are not available. I understand the safety risk of this recall could result in serious injury or death. I am deeply concerned. Its been over a year. What should I do?
