Takata recall. Failure to remedy defect within a reasonable time. Awaiting replacement for over one year now and avoiding use of passenger seat is an undue burden. When passenger seat is used passenger is placed at unnecessary risk. Was on waiting list in vermont for several months but have now moved to new york. My time on the waiting list is now reset and will be another 3 or more months.

Takata recall - despite visits to two toyota dealers in june 2016 i was unable to get the airbag changed according to the recall notice received in april. Both dealers complained that the manufacturer was not suppling adequate replacement airbags and it would take an indefinite time. This is unacceptable. Kindly intervene.

Takata recall. I received a "preliminary notice" months ago, telling me not to have any front-seat passengers in my car, and that i would be contacted again when the part was ready. Last week i finally received an "urgent recall notice." i called today to schedule the appointment and was told they still don't have the part in and that someone would contact me. This is ridiculous. I essentially have half a car, and…
