Takata recall I received a recall notice from Toyota in June 2015, letting me know about the problem with the passenger side airbag. In the notice, they said "until the remedy becomes available in your location, we recommend that you do not operate the vehicle with an occupant in the front passenger seat." Since then I've contacted Toyota several times to try to find out when the replacement airbag would be available, but they are unable to give me any time frame whatsoever. Also, their representative who answered the phone at the toll-free number Toyota provided told me that if we don't feel safe in the vehicle, we could go to a Toyota dealer and request a replacement vehicle until Toyota is able to remedy our vehicle. When I went to the Toyota dealer with that information, they told me it wasn't true, and that they could not provide another vehicle. My concern is that Toyota is unable or unwilling to give me any kind of a time frame of when the replacement airbag will be available in our part of the country. Meanwhile, have decided to not use the front passenger seat, based on Toyota's recommendation, and that doesn't work for us. In addition, the resale value of the vehicle has decreased substantially because of the airbag problem. I feel that Toyota should do a better job of letting us know an approximate date for the replacement part, or they should provide us with a temporary replacement vehicle, as their own employee suggested from a phone number Toyota asked us to call.
