Anyone dealt with airbag recall work outside the dealership?

So my 2014 Nissan Patrol has an open recall for the passenger airbag inflator, but the dealer is booking appointments three months out and I'm a bit nervous driving around knowing it could be a problem. I started looking into independent shops that handle safety systems and came across https://www.alzaabiautocare.com/services/car-air-bag-repair which seems to offer the kind of diagnostic and replacement work I need, but I'm not sure if going outside the dealer would mess with the recall status or if they can even get the official parts. Has anyone here gotten airbag work done at a non dealer shop and felt safe about it? I don't want to cut corners on something this important, but waiting three months feels ridiculous too.
