TAKATA RECALL, IN REFERENCE TO THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER, I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE RUN AROUND WHEN I CALL CONCERNING THIS ISSUE. AM CONCERNED THEY WILL SELF DEPLOY, OR NOT DEPLOY. HAVE SIGNED UP FOR NOTIFICATIONS FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS, AND HAVE GIVEN THE DEALERSHIP TO DO THE WORK. TO DATE NOT A WORD ABOUT MY ISSUES OR RECALL NOTIFICATIONS, AND IT'S BEEN VERY UPSETTING. I WORRY EVERY TIME I GET BEHIND THE WHEEL, OR HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE CAR.

IT'S BEEN ALMOST 7 MONTHS SINCE THIS RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED AND IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE THERE'S ANY EFFORT IN CORRECTING THIS ISSUE. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE ANYMORE. I KNOW IT'S A RISK DRIVING A VEHICLE REGARDLESS, BUT INCREASING THE POTENTIAL DANGERS FOR A REASON THAT ISN'T MY OWN FAULT IS RIDICULOUS. I WISH I COULD GET RID OF THIS THING, BUT IT WOULD BE A PRETTY LARGE LOSS IF I DID AT THIS POINT, SO I HAVE TO ACCEPT IT UNTIL EITHER THEY FINALLY FIX THE ISSUE LIKE THEY SHOULD HAVE MONTHS AGO, OR I GET A RAISE/HIT THE LOTTERY

MY VEHICLE, ALONG WITH THOUSANDS OF OTHERS HAVE BEEN UNDER RECALL FOR A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. CIRCUITS FAIL, WHICH PREVENT THE AIRBAGS FROM DEPLOYING AND FROM SEAT BELTS RESTRAINING. I HAVE WAITED 4 MONTHS FOR A RESOLUTION AND THERE IS NOTHING. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT I AM FORCED TO DRIVE AROUND A HAZARDOUS VEHICLE (PREGNANT!!!). JEEP SHOULD EITHER PROVIDE A SAFE RENTAL VEHICLE OR BUY THIS BACK. THE VALUE OF MY VEHICLE HAS GREATLY DECREASED DUE TO THIS RECALL. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO BE KILLED BEFORE ACTION IS TAKEN ON THIS-- THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND I WOULD EXPECT THAT A GROUP WHOSE RESPONSIBILITY IS TO KEEP DRIVERS SAFE WOULD ALLOW THIS TO CONTINUE WITHOUT A RESOLUTION. I EXPECT MORE.
