Takata recall: Just received notice that takata have filed for bankruptcy, I found no other solutions to repair or replace the defective airbag. My Mercedes Benz dealership is unable to give me the time and put me on the waiting list. This is the only car my family have. I'm afraid for my family's safety including my 13 month old daughter.

Takata recall, no repair on 2012 C250 Mercedes and no estimate on when they will have parts to repair. Isn't it dangerous to drive this car with a passenger in front seat" what is my recourse? also engine lights comes on and sensors have been changed and mechanic does not know what actual problem is/ could this just be a bad fuse"

Takata recall! I took my 2012 Mercedes in for its maintenance. At this time, I was approached and told that my car was on the recall list due to airbags. At this time, I was informed of the safety issue and I was severely concerned for my 17 year old daughter. This was her car! I was told there was not a fix. That I could take the risk of my daughter being severely injured. Wow!! let me ask you what you would have done! I then out of fear, traded my 2012 Mercedes in. Took a huge loss and bought her a newer vehicle. Her other car was paid off. I had to put a dork payment on yet another car with a 2 year finance. Why should I be held accountable! I didn't put the airbags in the car. I thought as a mother, I was purchasing a safe reliable car for my daughter. I'm out $32,000... who's going to justify this" why should I have to eat this cost! I don't think so! I need to be reimbursed the difference it would have cost to replace airbags. Why should the Mercedes dealer be able to profit off me as well" they will find a way to fix the airbags then turn around & sell the car @ the usual jacked up cost. This is not fair! someone best find the answer.
