I received an email months ago that there was a recall on my airbags and an issue with the seatbelts that could cause injury during a crash. A just recently received an email from carmax warning me of the same. I never received a remedy-is-available email so I looked it up on this site and was informed there is no remedy available because the recall is incomplete. It has been close to a year, and I would like this remedied so I and my passengers are as safe as possible in my car. Thank you!
