Takata recall -- it's been 2 years since the recall was issued, but the manufacturer / dealership do not seem to be able to get the parts to repair my car. This essentially renders my car unsafe, and in many ways, unusable. I still have not heard about a date by when the parts will be available / repair will be done.

No accident. Just waiting since September 2014 to have my passenger side airbag replaced. I can't drive the car with a passenger because the airbag is affected by a recall and the BMW dealers don't have the parts to replace it.
