Horn continues to blow. Dealer states that the air bag needs to be replaced due to dust build-up. Told that it will take $1,400 to correct the problem. Currently the horn relay is disconnected.

February 2011

Takata recall. There was a NHTSA campaign to recall my vehicle's airbags-- number 16v081000. I was contacted by mail numerous times my mercedes national headquarters, indicating there was a recall and the replacement airbag was on order. They indicated I would be contacted later when the parts became available at my local mercedes dealer. I was contacted locally and they said the part was on order, I would be notified when it arrived. No notification occurred.
