    I received a recall notice months/years ago about the death hazard with these airbags and now i am seeing all over the news that this should have been handled a long time ago and it is recommended that i get it fixed asap, but toyota says they don't have a fix for it yet. Unacceptable!

    Takata recall i have been fortunate enough not to have an actual "incident", but i am still going to file the complaint on the length of time this recall on the airbag is taking to resolve. I cannot have a passenger due to this and it is extremely inconvenient. I am a single mother and need my vehicle to be in top shape for me and my child. No remedy for 10 months is ridiculous.

    Takata recall nhtsa recall no. 16v-340 & 17v-006. Why does toyota issue an interim recall notice with no remedy available? I have a 5 passenger car that is now a 4 passenger car (really a 2 passenger car now b/c the back seat is so small) and i cannot carry my whole family in the car. This car no longer meets my requirements because of this recall and the inability to use the front seat. Why can't toyota expedite…

    Takata recall: as the owner of a vehicle affected by this current and serious recall, i have to describe how disappointing it has been to barely hear anything from toyota to keep owners informed. I've probably received only 2, at most 3, letters of info in the last almost 10 months. I've had to drive my vehicle around for almost a year now, almost 12 months, with no rememdy still to replace this hazardous equipment.

    Takata recall i just spoke with a customer service representative and they informed that my safety recall will be able to be fixed in december of 2017. It is absolutely absurd that i have to wait until the end of the year for a safety recall. Safety recall as in it could endanger the life of any passenger with me!!!!!!!!!

    Takata recall: i received notice of the takata recall in march, at the latest, and followed their recommendation of not allowing someone to sit in the front passenger seat. However, with five family members, this is not a viable solution for my family. We cannot fit all of us, let alone guests, in the car and still avoid the recalled air bag. Toyota has been good about issuing recalls and providing remedies within a…
