2012 Mazda MAZDA6

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN GETTING LETTERS FOR MONTHS THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE BUT THAT THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO REPAIR. I CONTACTED THE DEALER DIRECTLY TWICE THE FIRST TIME THEY STATED NOT TO HAVE ANYONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THE SECOND TIME A MONTH AGO WHICH THEY STATED THEY WOULD CHECK ON THE PARTS AND CONTACT ME BACK AND NEVER DID.

TAKATA RECALL WE LIVE IN SIMPSONVILLE SC WHICH HAS VERY HIGH HUMIDITY AND HIGH TEMPERATURES. WE HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED TWO RECALL NOTICES FROM MAZDA CONCERNING THE AIRBAG RECALL. WE BELIEVE THAT GETTING THE REPLACEMENT PARTS IS TAKING TOO LONG AND THAT WE SHOULD HAVE ALREADY HAD THE PARTS REPLACED. MAZDA IS CONTINUING TO BUILD NEW VEHICLES USING PARTS THAT ARE NOT FAULTY WHILE WE CONTINUE TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT COULD CAUSE DEATH IF WE ARE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAGS WOULD DEPLOY. WE WOULD LIKE NHTSA TO REQUIRE MAZDA TO DIVERT A LARGER PORTION OF THE NEW AIRBAG PARTS FROM NEW VEHICLE PRODUCTION TO THE REPLACEMENT OF INFLATORS FOR EXISTING CUSTOMERS.

TAKATA RECALL WHY DOES MAZDA SEND TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL/WARNING LETTERS AND THEN NOT MAKE GREATER EFFORTS TO OBTAIN AND SHIP PARTS?!?!?!?! IN RESPONSE TO A MAZDA AIRBAG RECALL NOTICE, ON 4/25/17 I MADE AN APPT. W/ MAZDA IN SANTA BARBARA, CA. WITH MY VIN HE ORDERED THE PARTS AND SCHEDULED A 5/15/17 APPT. NEVER HEARD BACK IF PARTS ARRIVED. EARLY AUG. 2017 CALLED NHTSA TO REPORT PROBLEM. IN MID AUG. 2017, I GOT AN UNSOLICITED EMAIL OF A SERVICE APPT. AT MY LOCAL (SEASIDE, CA) DEALER FOR 8/28/17. ASSUMING THIS WAS IN RESPONSE TO THE NHTSA REPORT, I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALER. THEY DIDN'T KNOW HOW THE APPT. WAS MADE, BUT IN ANY EVENT THEY SAID THAT THERE ARE NO OPEN RECALLS FOR MY VIN (THEN WHY DID I GET THE LETTER FROM MAZDA????), THAT MINE WAS ONLY A "PRELIMINARY RECALL NOTICE (???), THAT I'LL GET ANOTHER LETTER FROM MAZDA, AND UNTIL I DO, THEY CANNOT ORDER THE PARTS! HOW AND WHEN WILL MY AIRBAG RECALL ISSUE BE RESOLVED? THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM, ACCORDING TO THIS NHTSA WEBSITE!
