2016 was the model year they switched airbags, if yours was manufactured late after the switch it will not be impacted. if you bought yours that late in 2016 there's a good chance it was after the airbag switch.

the recall is years old, the techs have been doing this for years now. the only new part is they have finally extended it to newer models. you're right that it doesn't fail right away, that's why they prioritized older vehicles and only extended into the newer models now. in other words, it's already been some years. people have died from shrapnel, there is no reason to wait to do this.
