    Please provide an update on what the nhtsa is doing to ensure safety on the tamara airbag recall. The recall notice indicates risk of fatality to passengers. The recall notice has a date of may 27th, 2016. I would assume 7 months would be adequate time to resolve this defect. Could the nhtsa provide more information on what owners should expect from manufactures regarding this?
