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.

So I called Toyota customer experience center on 04/23/2016 and case # 1604230474 created with Toyota. Again dealer said another 6 to 8 weeks on 04/23/2016. Again I called today (07/02/2016), dealer is saying another 6 to 8 weeks. I want to know, if Toyota is not providing enough parts to dealer or if dealer is not doing their job" address of stevens creek Toyota: 4202 stevens creek blvd, san jose, ca 95129 ph# : 1-855-395-4521 what kind of oversight government is having over this recall?. does government following with Toyota, how many vehicles affected and how many fixed?
