I have been involved in the massive recall of airbags for almost a year now and still cannot order a replacement part for my car. I have tried to call many dealerships and they all have told me they cannot order it for my VIN # yet. I am being forced to either drive a dangerous, life threatening car made by Mazda or rent one for months on end. Either way this is taking way too long and is way too risky and disgraceful. If anything happens while I am waiting for this remedy I will be contacting a lawyer.

2nd complaint on this board. As of February 2015 we are still waiting for Mazda to send us a 2nd letter which will allow us to make an appoitment with the dealer to get the air bag fixed. Due to the seriousness of this situation we have not driven the car since Feb. What exactly is a reasonable amount of time to handle a recall "? Mazda cannot even give me a time frame when I call to find out when we will receive the 2nd letter. Our state had a report on this recently and the governer told us not to be alarmed and it was ok to drive our cars. So tell me how metal fragments released into the air from the airbag is safe - and how long is a resononable amount of time? why has our goverment not done anything to expedite this situation "

I received a recall notice on February 17 that the air bag inflater needs to be replaced because it is among the millions of takata air bags that could explode into shrapnel and injure or kill the driver, two months later, I'm still waiting for parts to come, and Mazda says it has no idea how soon parts will be available. This leaves me driving a car that is potentially dangerous -- even fatal. Worse, we want to sell this car, which leaves me with two options: Don't tell prospective buyers about the recall, which puts them at risk because of a sin of omission on my part, or go ahead and tell them about the air bag issue and greatly diminish my chances of selling the car (and/or reduce the value). I guess my best option is to keep my mouth shut and sell the car to a dealer because they are not required by law to disclose that there are unfixed safety recalls on used vehicles. Anyone buying a used car should keep this in mind and check to see if there any open recalls.
