“TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED RECALL INFORMATION FOR THE TAKATA AIRBAG IN MY VEHICLE. - I CALLED AUDI STEVENS CREEK 888-462-7410 AS INSTRUCTED TO SCHEDULE REPAIR - AUDI SAID THEY ARE NOT DOING THE REPAIR AS NO AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN PROVIDED BY AUDI AMERICA - THERE IS NO ETA WHEN REPAIR MAY BE DONE THE STEVENS CREEK AUDI DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO SCHEDULE MY AIRBAG REPAIR. AUDI CLAIMS AIRBAGS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE AUDI A3 VEHICLES. AUDI'S INABILITY TO REPAIR THE AIRBAG AS REQUIRED BY THE SAFETY RECALL SHOULD BE NOTED IN THE FILE IN CASE ANYTHING SHOULD HAPPEN TO ME OR MY WIFE WHILE DRIVING. AUDI WILL BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES FOR THEIR INABILITY TO PROVIDE THE AIRBAG REPAIR IN A TIMELY MANOR. THANK YOU, [XXX] VIN: [XXX] *TR”

“TAKATA RECALL. LAST YEAR I SPECIFICALLY MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH AUDI TAMPA (105 E FOWLER AVE, TAMPA, FL) FOR THIS PURPOSE ON AUGUST 9 2017. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE TIME, EVEN THOUGH THEY KNEW WHY I WAS THERE SAID THEY HAD RUN OUT AND NOT TO WORRY THAT THE RECALL ISN'T THAT BAD. I AM FRUSTRATED THAT A YEAR LATER I AM REMINDED THAT THIS STILL HASN'T BEEN FIXED BY AUDI. AS AN ACTIVE DUTY SERVICE MEMBER I DON'T HAVE THE TIME NOR FLEXIBILITY TO CHASE AUDI DOWN. I WOULD EXPECT THAT AUDI WOULD BE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THIS CONSIDERING THIS IS AN ERROR IN THEIR DESIGN AND IMPACTS THE QUALITY AND SAFETY OF THEIR PRODUCTS.”
