RECALL ISSUE: LOCAL DEALER IN CA HAS NOT RESPONDED IN A TIMELY MANNER SAYING NO AIR BAGS ARE AVAILABLE; HAS TAKEN NO INTEREST WITH A PRIORITY LIST OR ANY OTHER ACTION, DESPITE MY FINANCIAL NEED TO SELL. FALSELY ASSURED ME FRONT SEAT COULD BE USED BY A PASSENGER, BUT THIS CANNOT BE CONFIRMED ONLINE AND WOULD NOT PROVIDE WRITTEN STATEMENT WHEN CALLED TO CONFIRM. I DO NO UNDERSTAND HOW OTHER PEOPLE WITH OTHER BRANDS, E.G. ACURA, (EVEN NEWER WITH NO PRE-COLLISION FEATURE) HAVE CONTACTED DEALER WHO ORDERED AND REPLACED THE TAKATA AIR BAG. HOW CAN THIS BE EXPEDITED??? THANK YOU *TR
