Takata recall - I currently have two recalls on my car. One is for the driver side air bag and the other for the passenger side. I am on a waiting list at the dealership for one of the parts but the other part has not become available yet. The dealership was not able to give me an eta on the part that is supposedly available - only that I have been put on a very long waiting list. I wouldn't be as worried about it if it weren't as dangerous a recall. I have children and only one vehicle. Am I supposed to just drive the car and hope for no accidents until they get the parts they need?

Takata recall I got into a car accident 9/2/16. I rear ended a car. My airbags deployed but ruptured instantly this caused me to hit my head on the steering wheel causing lots of neck and back pain and I also chipped my front tooth. My daughter was grazed by a small fragment not causing too much harm. It was horrible. We also inhaled the powder substance that was in the airbags since then I have a dry cough especially at night and a lot of heartburn.
