TAKATA RECALL-IT IS SIGNIFICANT TO ME THAT A 2016 NOTICE REGARDING THE SAFETY OF THE AIRBAGS IS STILL LISTED AS "REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE." THIS HAS BEEN OVER ONE YEAR AND A RECALL NEEDS TO TAKE PLACE FOR MY SPECIFIC YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN EVERYDAY AND EVERY DAY THERE IS WORRY AMONG OUR FAMILY THAT THERE MAY BE AN INJURY DUE TO A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG IN OUR VEHICLE. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE ASAP. NO MORE "REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE" RESPONSE IS ACCEPTABLE. ACT NOW. ISSUE A RECALL WITH A REMEDY.
