2007 MERCEDES BENZ C280

My Mercedes has never been recalled for the Takata air bag recall and now I have a warning about the SRS, Supplemental Restraint System. What ever happened to vehicles having replacement air bags??

I have never been contacted about this recall either. This is the second complaint form I have filed. First one filed 12/28/2019.
