TAKATA RECALL: OUR CAR HAS A TAKATA RECALL. WE DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING OR HAVING OUR 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER DRIVING IT. NO RENTAL OR LOANERS HAVE BEEN OFFERED. ACCORDING TO CUSTOMER SERVICE AT VW CUSTOMER CARE THE NHTSA IS NOT REQUIRING THEM TO OFFER THIS. WE CANNOT AFFORD TO RENT A VEHICLE INDEFINITELY (THERE IS NO TIMEFRAME FOR REPAIR), RECALL STATES THE PROBLEM COULD RESULT IN DEATH, IT SEEMS ILLEGAL NOT TO HAVE A SAFE CAR PROVIDED UNTIL A REPAIR IS AVAILABLE.

VW IS NOT DOING ANYTHING TO SOLVE THE TAKATA SDI DRIVER AIRBAG RECALL! CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, PALMETTO 57TH IN MIAMI. SPOKE TO SERVICE MANAGER ROLANDO WHO ADVISED THEY COULD NOT PROVIDE LOANER UNLESS VW CORPORATE AUTHORIZED IT, AND VW HAD NO SOLUTION AT THE MOMENT. CALLED VW CORPORATE AT 1-800-893-5298 AND WAS ADVISED THAT VW IS NOT PROVIDING LOANER CARS, AND WOULD NOT TEMPORARILY REMOVE AIRBAGS UNTIL THEY FIND A SOLUTION. I ADVISED THAT I HAVE A PREGNANT WIFE, AND NEED A TEMPORARY SOLUTION. THEY STATED THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BASED ON THE CORPORATE POLICY THAT HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED BY VW. MY COUSIN-IN-LAW HAS AN ACURA TL WITH THE SAME AIRBAG PROBLEM. HE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND GOT A RENTAL CAR AT NO COST UNTIL HIS CAR CAN BE FIXED. I GUESS SOMEONE HAS TO DIE IN ORDER FOR VW TO TAKE CORPORATE ACTION. I PRAY THAT IS NOT MY WIFE AND MY UNBORN BABY! PS: WE OWN THREE LATE MODEL VW'S. WE ARE SELLING ALL OF THEM AND NEVER BUYING ANOTHER ONE AGAIN!

TAKATA RECALL SINCE THERE IS A CHANCE THAT MY DRIVER AIRBAG WON'T GET ACTIVATED IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT, I AM VERY CONCERNED OF MY SAFETY. THIS CC IS THE 4TH VEHICLE I LEASE FROM VW SINCE 2009. IN THE INTERIM , UNTIL VW AND TAKATA DECIDE ON THE RESOLUTION OF THIS MAJOR DEFECT, WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MY POSSIBLE INJURIES/DEATH IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT? SHOULDN'T VW BE MORE CONCERNED OF MY SAFETY WHILE THEY RESOLVE THE PROBLEM? SHOULDN'T THEY GIVE ME A TEMPORARY VEHICLE TO DRIVE MEANWHILE? IT IS POTENTIOLLY A LIFE-THREATENING SITUATION. WHAT ARE MY RIGHT IN THAT CASE?
