VIN tool confirms parts not available.
Takata recall - we were notified more than 9 months ago about this recall and they still have not gotten the parts to replace this. How safe are these airbags? Why are the car manufacturers still not replacing them? We have been patient but if this is a true safety issue- how are they getting away with not correcting it?
