Takata recall on august 30 2016 I was driving on the street breaking as I was approaching a red light when my 2011 mazda cx7 was rear ended and slid into another vehicle. My airbags did not deploy and I hit my head on the steering wheel. I received a letter in the mail today about a reacall with a bar code and numbers tk66253230. I do not have my police report they don't hand them out anymore in il where I live as they are electronic now but I can go to the police station and purchase one.
Takata recall I received a letter in july, 2016 informing me of the recall and asking me to wait until further notice from mazda. They suggested I not have anyone ride in the passenger seat until repaired. I called mazda dealer 10-18-16 and still do not have parts. That suggestion is not tenable and what about the danger to the driver? I feel this is an unreasonable amount of time to wait for this recall to be taken care of and repaired. Thank you.
