I HAVE A 2009 AUDI A4 CABRIOLET. I RECEIVED NOTICE THAT THE AIRBAGS WERE PART OF THE TAKATA RECALL. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT MY NEAREST DEALER, AND THEY TOLD ME THAT AUDI WAS NOT FIXING THE REPAIR. THEY TOLD ME THAT AUDI WOULD GIVE ME A FEW THOUSAND TOWARD A NEW AUDI, BUT THAT WAS IT. I CALLED ANOTHER DEALERSHIP A SEVERAL MONTHS LATER AND WAS TOLD THAT AUDI IS STILL NOT PREPARED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. IT'S DISGRACEFUL OF AUDI. I LOVE MY CAR AND WANT TO KEEP IT. THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY AND THEY SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. MY DAUGHTER'S HONDA WAS FIXED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF BEING NOTIFIED.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE REGARDING THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG IN APRIL 2016, ALMOST A YEAR AGO NOW. CALLED THE DEALER - WHO SAID HE HAD NO PARTS FOR THE REPAIR, AND WAS NOT AUTHORIZED TO PROVIDE A LOANER CAR. I CALLED AUDI CORPORATE, AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THIS WEEK, A SECOND RECALL NOTICE CAME, THIS TIME FOR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. I RARELY DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE OF THIS. WHAT CAN I DO TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF?
