We received a recall notice in July of 2016 for a defective airbag. We have made multiple attempts to have it replaced at our local dealership but we are told each time that the parts are not available. While we understand that this is a massive recall, it has now been over 3 years waiting for the replacement part. We were told our only option was to contact the manufacturer or file a complaint with the ntsb.
