The remedy for the defective passenger side air bags is not within a reasonable time. The recall was known May 13, 2015 and the parts to correct are still not available. How long does it take to correct this error"?" it is most annoying to not be able to use my front passenger seat. I am loosing my faith in Toyota. A Toyota owner since 1977.

Toyota is delayed in providing remedy for the "front passenger airbag inflator module recall" on my car. Toyota recommends not using the front passenger seat until then. This is not feasible since our family has only one car, we carry dogs/kids in the back seat, and my husband and I must be sitting in the front. Toyota dealer sunnyvale (ca) is not able to provide a loaner free of charge until remedy is available.
