The "airbag" light for drivers side comes on and goes off randomly. This problem was discovered while under warranty and I did take the vehicle in for repair. But if the dealership ever repaired the problem (I suspect they did not repair it) the light still continues to come on and go off randomly. The dealership quit returning my phone calls years ago now.

Brandon, the service advisor at Subaru of santa cruz, attended to my service and repair needs I had in July of 2017, however not the airbag recall. When I entered the service area I went over my concerns with the vehicle and what services I needed. I also asked brandon to look up and take care of the airbag recall for the vehicle. He said that he would check that out for me. I left the vehicle for a few days and came back to pick it up. I figured airbag recalls are top priorities at Subaru and that everything was remedied. After leaving the dealer I took a closer look at the 5 pages of cryptic paperwork that brandon had handed me and found no mention of the recall repair. 16 people have died as a result of this defect as of 3/17. I am complaing that this oversight by Subaru of santa cruz, having my vehicle in their possesion and not taking care of the safety issue is unacceptable.

- West Seneca, NY, USA

I received the notification about the recall in July 2016. It is now 10/31/16 and I am old that the new airbags are not available. I have been told that I will receive a letter when my car can be repaired, but I have not received anything to date. I am concerned that if there is impact or if weather conditions impact the defective airbag that shrapnel can be released and can be fatal to passenger(s). I cannot carry passengers in my vehicle and I am also concerned for my own well being driving my vehicle.

Takata recall: How long is this going to take? my wife is ready to buy a new car but we are unsure about how this recall hanging over the Subaru Impreza is going to affect our ability to sell or trade in the car. We assume the car can't be sold in this condition, and that's a burden. Please advise: Auxinn@yahoo.com

Takata recall Subaru sent a recall notice in July 2016 indicating that "Subaru is in the process of acquiring parts necessary to perform this repair". meaning that they are not presently able to perform the repair. "until this repair is performed, do not allow passengers to ride in the front passenger seat." This is entirely impractical. I did not purchase a Subaru to drive it with no one else in the front seat! I need Subaru to either repair the defect in a timely fashion, or to provide me with an alternate form of transportation.
