2007 Audi A3 Air Bags

TAKATA RECALL. NO REPAIR TO THIS ISSUE IS AVAILABLE NOR CAN I BE GIVEN AN ESTIMATE OF THE TIME FRAME INVOLVED FROM AUDI OF AMERICA. YET OTHER MANUFACTURERS SUCH AS HONDA ARE ALREADY MAKING THE REPAIRS. THIS IS A COMPLETE OUTRAGE. IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO MYSELF OR FAMILY WHO IS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS ISSUE?

TAKATA RECALL HAS NOT BEEN RESPONDED TO WITH ACTIONABLE OPTIONS.

TAKATA RECALL.I HAVE HAD NO INFORMATION FROM AUDI SINCE THE INITIAL NOTICE IN APRIL. MY CAR WILL BE 10 YEARS OLD THIS COMING APRIL. ACCORDING TO NEWS MEDIA THERE IS SUPPOSE TO BE SOME PRIORITY STATUS SET BASED ON AGE AND LOCATION BUT I CAN NOT FIND WHAT MY PRIORITY IS. GIVEN THE LACK OF ACTION I WOULD LIKE MY PRIORITY NUMBER OR APPROVAL TO DISCONNECT THIS SAFETY HAZARD!

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM AUDI, A 69N2 NOTICE STATING THAT "TAKATA HAS REPORTED THAT THE DRIVER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR COULD POTENTIALLY RUPTURE IF THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN A CRASH WHERE THE FRONTAL AIRBAGS ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY. IN THE EVENT OF AN INFLATOR RUPUTE, METAL FRAGMENTS COULD PASS THROUGH THE AIRBAG CUSHION MATERIAL, WHICH MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS." I CALLED AUDI USA TODAY AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY CURRENTLY HAVE NO REPAIR PROGRAM AVAILABLE TO DEAL WITH THIS PROBLEM, THEY COULD NOT EVEN PROVIDE AN EXPECTED DATE FOR THE REPAIR TO BE AVAILABLE, AND THAT LOANER PROGRAMS ARE NOT AVAILABLE NATIONALLY AND IT WOULD BE UNLIKELY THAT MY LOCAL DEALER WOULD BE ABLE TO LOAN ME A VEHICLE UNTIL SUCH TIME AS MY CAR IS REPAIRED TO A SAFE DRIVING CONDITION. THIS IS CLEARLY COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE SO I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A FORMAL COMPLAINT AGAINST AUDI. ALL I AM REQUESTING IS THE VEHICLE IS REPAIRED AND IF IT CANNOT BE REPAIRED THAT I AM PROVIDED WITH A SAFE CAR TO DRIVE IN THE INTERIM PERIOD. I FEEL YOU NEED TO BE AWARE OF THE POSITION AUDI ARE TAKING IN NOT PROVIDING REMEDY TO SUCH A LETHAL PROBLEM AS I AM LEFT TRULY SHOCKED AT THEIR LACK OF CONCERN FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS.

TAKATA RECALL - NOTICE HAS BEEN RECEIVED OF TAKATA DRIVER'S AIRBAG RECALL, BUT NO PARTS AVAILABLE FOR RECALL. I CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE MY CAR NOW IF THE AIRBAG MAY EXPLODE AND KILL ME! I HAVE BEEN DRIVING A POTENTIAL DEATH TRAP AND AM VERY AFRAID.
