Takata recall. The repairs are taking too long. I drive with my 10-month old in the car and am concerned with the life threatening/serious injury possibility if involved in an accident where the airbag is engaged! I would like an alternative recourse at the expense of the manufacturer, such as a loaner car or something! my family's life is at risk every time we drive the car. I have two cars affected by this recall and will submit two complaints. Thank you.
