2005 Audi A6 Air Bags & Restraints Problems

AUDI OF AMERICA SENT ME A FLYER (ATTACHED) OFFERING $100 IN AUDI GOODS AND SERVICES AS AN INCENTIVE TO COMPLETE THE REPLACEMENT OF A TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL. SINCE MAY 2ND, NOW ALMOST 5 MONTHS LATER, AUDI HAS STILL FAILED TO PROVIDE THE OFFERED INCENTIVE DESPITE ME CONTACTING THEM AND THEIR PROMISE IT WOULD BE RESOLVED. AS THIS RECALL IS UNDER NHTSA JURISDICTION I THOUGHT YOU WOULD HAVE INTEREST IN THEIR BEHAVIOR IN REGARDS TO THIS SERIOUS MATTER.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE CONTACTED AUDI TWICE, THEY HAVE TOLD ME THEY HAD TO ORDER THE PART AND ONCE THEY RECEIVE THE PART THEY WOULD CALL ME TO SET AN APPOINTMENT TO REPAIR THE AIRBAG. I HAVE BEEN WAITING ABOUT 6 MONTHS (MAYBE LONGER). I HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THEM. AFTER WAITING A FEW MONTHS I DECIDED TO ALSO FILL OUT THE FORM ON THE AUDI WEBSITE REGARDING THE TAKATA RECALL ON MAY 15, 2018 AND STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RESPONSE.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 AUDI A6. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V382000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE DEALER (PRESTIGE PORSCHE AUDI, 1-877-663-9259) WAS CALLED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THE AIRBAG RECALL REPAIRS DONE MANY TIMES OVER THE LAST YEAR,ONLY TOLD THAT THEY ARE WAITING FOR PARTS AT AUDI OF ROCHESTER NY. I AM CONCERNED THE I HAVE HEAR NOTHING FROM THEM. I HAVE NOT HAD THE PASSENGER AIRBAG GO OFF NOR DO I WANT TO TAKE THE CHANCE THAT IT WILL.

TAKATA RECALL MANUFACTURER HAS FAILED OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE

TAKATA RECALL-THERE IS NO SOLUTION FOR A FIX FROM AUDI. THEY SAY THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AND DO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WILL GET THEM.

TAKATA RECALL: WHY DO I HAVE A LETTER FROM AUDI AND A NOTICE FROM TK HOLDINGS INC. STATING MY VEHICLE IS SUBJECT TO A RECALL, YET WHEN I REGISTER THE CAR IT COMES UP AS NOT IN THE DATABASE. I TESTED YOUR DATABASE AS WELL AND IT DOES NOT COME UP. ON PAPER THE CAR IS SUBJECT TO THE RECALL BUT NOT ONLINE. THANKS

TAKATA RECALL- NO SCHEDULED REPAIR CONFIRMED.

TAKATA RECALL , I RECEIVED A LETTER FOR REPAIR FOR MY CAR IN EARLY 2016, BUT THE DEALER KEEPS SAYING TAKATA HAS NOT SENT THE PART TO THEM, JACK INGRAM MOTORS MONTGOMERY, AL AND IM AFRAID MY CAR IS NOT SAFE.

CAN'T USE THE PASSENGER SEAT OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS NOT A VALID SOLUTION. WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR, 6 YEARS AGO, IT INDICATED FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS THAT FUNCTIONED. FIND A SOLUTION WITH AUDI FOR THIS PROBLEM. YOU CAN'T EVEN SELL THE CAR.

"TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN GETTING THE ROUND AROUND ON REPLACEMENT OF THE INFLATOR FOR THE PAST YEAR. ONE EXCUSE AFTER ANOTHER.

TAKATA RECALL. CAR WAS DOMICILED IN NY FROM 2005-2007, FLORIDA 2007-2012 AND CALIFORNIA 2012-PRESENT. ISSUE IS THE AIRBAG RECALL ON THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE PRIORITIZED FASTER BASED ON THE 5 YEARS IN HOT HUMID FLORIDA AND 2 YEARS IN NY VS CA. SINCE I NOW LIVE IN CA THE AUDI RUSNAK THOUSAND OAKS ADVISED IT HAS A LOWER PRIORITY THEN FLORIDA. REQUEST THE TAKATA AIRBAG REPLACEMENT PARTS BE SHIPPED SOONER FOR MY CAR TO COMPLETE REPAIRS BASED ON THE YEARS IN FLORIDA.
