Do you still have a defective Takata airbag in your car? It may be one of 700 vehicles licensed in WA that still needs the airbag replaced and the Department of Transport will cancel those licences on 31 January. It’s important to act now, whether your vehicle is licensed or unlicensed, as the airbags are dangerous and more likely to degrade in hot, humid, dusty conditions. Replacement is at no cost to vehicle owners, but you must check your vehicle and arrange replacement with the manufacturer. This can be harder in remote regions but still possible and needs to be done. Look up your own vehicle at https://ismyairbagsafe.com.au and listen to our podcast with Tom Chapman from Consumer Protection for more vital information.
