TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL LETTER RECEIVED LAST YEAR. CALLED TOYOTA OVER THE PAST MONTHS, DEALERSHIP WHICH SOLD US THE CAR (CALDWELL TOYOTA NO LONGER A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND COULDN'T HELP US) AND A RECOMMENDED DEALERSHIP NEARBY. NO ONE COULD GIVE US ANSWERS OR HELP. WE WERE TOLD WE COULD GET A LOANER. DEALERSHIP WANTED US TO GO WITH THEM TO RENT A CAR AND SOMEONE WOULD REIMBURSE US (PAUL MILLER). I CANNOT EFFICIENTLY CARPOOL WITH TEEN DAUGHTER'S TEAMMATES AND FRIENDS. TOYOTA ASSURED ME LAST YEAR THAT PARTS WERE GOING TO SOUTHERN "WARM" STATES FIRST AND THEN WOULD GET TO NORTHEAST. KEEP CALLING SERVICE CENTER OR WAIT FOR LETTER ANNOUNCING PARTS ARE IN. IN SEPT. I WAS TOLD MORE CARS WERE INVOLVED THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT. REMEDY COULD TAKE LONGER. THEY TOLD ME TO KEEP CALLING TOYOTA AS WELL FOR UPDATES. IN OCTOBER I WAS ASSURED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS NOT IMPACTED. IF THE "AIRBAG" LIGHT IS CONSISTENTLY ON I CAN BRING CAR TO HAVE AIRBAG DEACTIVATED. APPARENTLY NO AIRBAG IS SAFER THAN A FAULTY ONE THAT CAN IMPALE MY WITH [XXX] CHILDREN!!!??? SHAME ON ALL INVOLVED IN THIS. I AM A MOTHER OF A TEEN WHO SOON WILL BE LEARNING TO DRIVE - IS IT SAFE TO HAVE THE ADULT DRIVER IN THE BACKSEAT WITH THE RESTRICTED DRIVER IN THE FRONT ALONE? MY MOTHER IS 92 AND MY MOTHER-IN-LAW IS 87 I AM THEIR MAIN SOURCE OF TRANSPORATATION. I DRIVE DISABLED AND ELDERLY PARISHIONERS FROM MY CHURCH TO CHURCH EVENTS, SHOPPING AND ERRANDS. I BOUGHT A CAR WITH 2 FRONT SEATS AND THREE IN THE BACK BECAUSE I NEED THEM ALL! THIS RECALL HAS BEEN FRUSTRATING AND AN ENERGY DRAINER, THIS RECALL AFFECTS MY LIFE EVERY DAY. BEING AN OPTIMIST AND MY "THINGS COULD BE WORSE" ATTITUDE HAVE PROBABLY NOT BEEN HELPFUL IN GETTING ANSWERS AND SOLUTIONS...I AM LOSING MY PATIENCE. ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED.

TOKATA RECALL IN AUGUST 2015 TOYOTA INFORMED ME THAT MY COROLLA WAS PART OF THE RECALL PROGRAM TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS WHICH WERE SUBJECT TO SPEWING SHRAPNEL WHEN DISCHARGED. I WENT TO THE LOCAL DEALER TO GET THE REPLACEMENT COMPLETED, SHOWING THEM THE NOTICE I RECEIVED. THE DEALER, SMART TOYOTA (563.388.6880) INFORMED ME THAT THE REPLACEMENT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE YET, AND THAT I SHOULD RECEIVE ANOTHER LETTER WHEN THE THE PARTS WERE ON HAND AND COULD BE INSTALLED. I CHECKED WITH THEM AGAIN ON 9 OCTOBER TO LEARN WHETHER THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. I RECEIVED THE SAME ANSWER AS I DID IN AUGUST AT MY INITIAL VISIT: THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE YET AND THAT I WOULD RECEIVE A LETTER INFORMING ME WHEN THEY WERE. TODAY IS 24 DECEMBER, AND I STILL HAVEN'T RECEIVED THAT LETTER. IN THE MEANTIME, I AM DRIVING AROUND IN A CAR WITH AIRBAGS THAT COULD STRAFE ME WITH SHRAPNEL SHOULD I BE IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE RESPONSE TO A POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING DEFECT. I FEEL THAT PERHAPS I SHOULD HAVE THE AIRBAGS REMOVED OR DISABLED UNTIL THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE, AND TO RELY ON THE SAFETY BELTS FOR CRASH PROTECTION. WHAT IS THE NHTSA POSITION ON THIS ISSUE?

TOYOTA HAS FAILED TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME. I RECEIVED MY LETTER/NOTICE ABOUT THE RECALL BACK IN JUNE/JULY AND I STILL HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT WHEN I CAN ACTUALLY TAKE MY CAR IN TO BE SERVICED. THIS IS A CONCERN FOR ME AS THIS IS MY ONLY CAR AND WHAT I USED DAILY TO TAKE ME TO WORK & EVERYWHERE ELSE IN BETWEEN. I DO NOT WANT TO RISK MY LIFE OR MY PASSENGERS LIVES BECAUSE TOYOTA HAS FAILED TO REPLACE THIS PART.

TAKATA RECALL - IT HAS BEEN SEVERAL MONTHS AND STILL NO RESOLUTION TO THE ISSUE EVEN THOUGH OTHER CARS HAVE BEEN RESOLVED. I HAVE A 5 MONTH OLD CHILD IN THE CAR AND AM UNABLE TO DRIVE IT DUE TO TRUST ISSUES WITH TOYOTA AND THE AIRBAGS. THE REMEDY PROCESS PERTAINING TO THIS ISSUE IS RIDICULOUS, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE MORE EXPENSIVE LINES OF VEHICLES (LEXUS) HAVE BEEN RESOLVED.
