Recently reported AIR BAGS problems on 2005 Audi S4

Takata recall. i received two letters from audi in march 2017 and recently a third letter in march 2018 informing me of the passenger frontal airbag inflator problem. the most recent letter states that it is dangerous to drive and the airbag could explode causing serious injury or death. i called audi service in april 2017 and again in april 2018 and they said they do not have a fix for the problem and have no time frame for when it will be available. how can i continue to drive a car that has significant risk to cause injury and they will not fix it for over a year?

In august 2006 while driving my 2005 audi s4 convertible on a busy street in bloomington, indiana at 45-50 mph, my car died without warning...i.e. no power steering, brakes. i was able to navigate it off-road and then towed to royal audi in bloomington, in. they kept the car over a month thinking maybe i needed a new engine. however, eventually they said it was a fuse which was replaced and the car drove fine. however, driving cross-country in january 2007 while on i40 in west oklahoma, trying to pass an enormous truck, i found i had no brakes and rear-ended another similar large truck ,totaling my car. despite a severe accident no airbags deployed either on the drivers or passenger's side. *tr
