Although my car is not listed on the airbag recall, I am concerned my car might have the airbags from takata. The year the takata airbag recall started is 2000. My car is a 2002 Subaru Outback. The 2003 Subaru Outback is on the takata airbag recall list. How can I make sure my car's airbags were not manufactured by takata?
