I had mine fixed.
NOW, the media is saying that due to demand there are not enough modified replacement parts so some new old types have been fitted as they are good for another 3 years. I will have to follow up to check whether I will have to go back for the latest type.

This was the big "Takeda" airbag recall, and yes, it was global. But as far as I knew, the 86s do not have the Takeda airbag. Maybe it was different for cars sent to Australia?
