Q: my car has been waiting a long time for airbag replacement ,now I was told to not have a passenger ?
I now am worried that passenger side can explode and injure me also, I have an 07 fusion and paid to be able to use all seats safely, delay has been ongoing due to supply after takata bankruptcy. I live in south jersey,beside a loaner is there any recourse?
A: You shouldn't drive the car until it's repaired and you need to speak with an attorney. Depending on the facts and circumstances of your case, you may have a legitimate action for damages against the seller and/or repair shop (e.g. consumer fraud). They shouldn't be dragging their feet on an airbag replacement and telling you not to have a passenger sounds reprehensible.
