I WAS PROVIDED A NOTICE OF AN AIRBAG RECALL OVER TWO YEARS AGO ON A THREE YEAR OLD VEHICLE. THE DEALERS SAYS THEY HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR PARTS. I HAVE CALLED MERCEDES NATIONAL AND THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO. IT APPEARS NOTHING IS HAPPENING AND NO ONE HAS A SOLUTION YET I DRIVE A VEHICLE EVERYDAY ALL DAY THAT COULD EXPLODE ON ME AND SEND METAL FRAGMENTS INTO MY FACE AND NECK. THIS IS STRESSFULL AND I HAVE SEND A LETTER TO MY FAMILY MEMBERS TO DOCUMENT THIS AND SUE ALL INVOLVED IF I END UP PASSING AWAY OVER THIS WHILE WAITING IN LIMBO. THE PRESS AND GOVERNMENT NEED TO GET INVOLVED AS THIS IS A NATIONAL ISSUE THAT IS BEING IGNORED AND MANY LIVES ARE AT STAKE.
