Takata recall i have not yet received a recall notice via us mail to have my air bag replaced on the passenger side of my car. How long should this take? What if something should happen and there is no air bag to deflat? Who is responsible? This has been going on 6 months now.

Takata recall - i was first notified in june 2016 that there might be a risk of harm due to passenger airbag. I still have not heard anything about getting it replaced. I just called a local ford dealer and was told that when the part becomes available i will be notified. This is taking way too long and i am so nervous about my passengers safety my kids are not able to sit in the front seat. This is ridiculous.
