Takata air bag recall. In July I was notified of the recall. To this date there is no repair available. Basically I can not longer use the vehicle in the way it was designed and there is no solution. Apparently GM is accepting responsibility but I have no recourse but to suffer the loss of value of my vehicle. How can the government allow this indefinite solution.
