"TAKATA RECALL"- IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 2 YEARS SINCE THE RECALL STARTED. YOUR CO. IS COSTING ME MONEY. BECAUSE OF THE RISK TO MY LIFE AND SINCE THE PART IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE, I HAD TO BUY ANOTHER CAR. I AM RETIRED AND ON A FIXED INCOME AND HAD NOT PLANNED TO BUY A CAR. EVEN THOUGH MY CAR IS A 2006, IT STILL DRIVES WELL, HAS NEW TIRES AND A NEW BATTERY. NOW, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT. I DON'T WANT TO SELL IT AND RISK INJURY TO ANOTHER PERSON OR FAMILY. I FEEL LIKE I HAVE BEEN MISTREATED. IF I WEREN'T RESPONSIBLE AND DIDN'T MAKE PAYMENTS, I WOULD HAVE HAD NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES GIVEN TO ME. YET, YOUR COMPANY IS NOT BEING PUNISHED FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AND WANT SOME TYPE OF REIMBURSEMENT, SINCE I CAN'T SAFELY DRIVE MY CAR WITH MY FAMILY IN IT! IT SEEMS LIKE YOU ONLY WANT TO HELP, IF OR WHEN THERE'S AN ACCIDENT. HELP ME BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS!
