Takata recall; rec'd letter in may, 2016 from lexus stating problem with airbags. today, october 21, 2016 still no fix! i drive my car but if i have a passenger, i make him/her sit in the back seat. this is very disturbing, to think the airbag may inflate if i were in an accident. it seems ridiculous that takata can't remedy this situation. i don't blame lexus, as the airbags are not their product, which is my understanding. how long do we have to wait to drive a safe car again? it's been 6 months already. i live in 'zone a' and my car is well within the 6-9 years 'significant propellant degradation may occur.' time frame!
