Takata recall my dealer states that, as of today 3/29/2017, they have not received the replacement parts for ES350 models. I have not had an incident but I am very concerned about the long delay in correcting the problem, and live in California where the degredation of the inflators is most likely due to climate conditions.

I received noticed of the NHTSA recall 16V-340 in may of 2016. Ten months later Lexus still does not have the parts at dealers to get this fixed. This is unacceptable.

Still no remedy for the passenger side airbag. This is ridiculous that it would take almost a year and still nothing yet! they seem to have enough airbags for the new cars they are making. Lets fix the bad airbags first before anyone else gets killed! come on NHTSA lets get on Toyota and make them get this done.

Takata recall-I received notification in may of 2016 and was told that I would be notified that airbag would be replaced as part became available. I have been waiting patiently, but have been told repeatedly by local Lexus dealer that part is still not available and it has been almost a year now. I find this to be unreasonable, especially since no one can occupy the front passenger seat.

There is still no remedy available for my car. I live in zone 1! my car is nine years old and still Lexus has not made an airbag replacement for any of the ES models! why" other car manufacturers have fixed their cars. Not acceptable. Nhsta needs to get on Lexus/Toyota to get this done. This is beyond ridiculous. This is my teenagers car. How many more deaths do we need in order to get this done" until Lexus is forced to comply in a reasonable time, they will not. We are getting close to a year now. Unacceptable!!!!
