TAKATA RECALL

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVEN'T HAD A PROBLEM YET BUT I AM CONCERNED AS TAKATA HAS FILED BANKRUPTCY--WILL MY AIRBAGS GET FIXED BEFORE I NEED THEM?

NOTHING HAPPENED EXCEPT WE HAVE A RECALL ON THE AIRBAG.WE GOT THE LETTER IN MARCH 0F 2017. WHEN WE CALLED THE DEALER TODAY ON 11-6-17 THEY STATED WE HAD TO WAIT FOR THE 2ND LETTER SAYING PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. SO WHERE IS OUR 2ND LETTER SO WE CAN GET THIS FIXED. I FEEL WE SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED THIS BY NOW.
