Takata recall for over a year I have been contacting Mazda to replace my passenger and driver side airbags. They have continously told me the replacement, which is again being manufactured by takata, is not yet available. With the significant risk of death or injury my current airbags pose to myself and my passenger I feel this issue should have been resolved in a timely manner. If Mazda is unable to replace my airbags I feel I should be provided a rental car until they are able to replace them.
