Takata recall received a notice fromtk holdings Inc about one to two years ago regarding replacement of air bag. Called my Lexus dealer about a year ago and they told me they would notice when it was my turn. They did not give me a time frame on when they would repair it. I am driving a dangerous car. How long do I have to wait?? case no 17-11375
