Safety recall and can't be serviced.

I received an email notification for a safety recall on my 2011 Opel Astra which was fitted with Takata airbags, apparently there may be a fault with them where they may not work or could randomly deploy due to rust in the gas cylinder. Obviously a serious issue and, it turns out the nearest service center capable of fixing the issue is a two and a half hour drive away in Pinetown or Umhlanga since they have nobody in Shelly Beach or Port Shepstone. This is not acceptable to expect me to spend an entire day sitting in your service center waiting for them to fix your problem. If I leave it my safety is at risk but on the other hand I have to take an entire day off work. Surely your service center in my region can acquire the parts and do the work. Only giving a second star because the people I spoke to were quick to respond and friendly.
