This recall is years old. I have owned this car for quite a while. It has been on the takata airbag replacement list for a long time. My daughter drives this car and I am fearful of her getting into an accident and suffering undue injury because of this recall that has not been rectified. I have called the dealer. They offer no help.

Takata recall: My car is currently under the takata recall, driver airbag being affected and I have yet to receive any information from the manufacturer in regards to replacing this defect. It was sent out in February 2016 and I never received notice that my car had a recall. I found out from a family member whom also has the same recall. I would like to be made aware of when a replacement for this defect will be available or to be provided with buyback options on this vehicle, as it is very unsafe to drive with this defect.

Takata recall. As reported by takata, in the event of an inflator rupture, metal fragments could pass through the airbag cushion material, which may result in serious injury or death to vehicle occupants. There hasn't been any remedy or repair to this and there hasn't been any compensation or replacement of the vehicle which is only fair to ask. I am worried that something might happen and it would be too late to do anything about it. As a company manufacturing it, VW should provide us the sense of safety and protection. Also I live in ca, which is state that falls in zone a states with high temperature cycling and humidity and falls into a more risky group. So I need to feel secure in some way and VW is responsible for it.

I am having airbag light on of my dashboard. I am always having the suspect about airbag will work or not if required. I contact VW services center that they can't help. VW recall website says it is not available from last February 2016. Do I still use the car or not? I have only 1 car for the basic commute to work. I followed up multiple times with VW. But there is no movement to address this problem.
