I called a dealer in June to set up an appointment to have the repair done for this recall. I was told they did not have the part and my name was added to a list and the part should be in in 2 weeks. I called again today to check on the status and was told that they are still waiting on the parts. They can only order 9 parts per week and when they order the parts they are told that the parts are on back order. They are working on repairs for customers who called in May. I don't understand why Toyota is limiting the amount of parts a dealer can order weekly and why they don't have the parts available when they know there is a recall. This process is taking too long and putting my son at risk.

I received a safety recall notice from Toyota in may of 2016. The letter stated that it's a required immediate respond. I called right away to Toyota of tri cities and the lady said that 'you're part will be in two weeks and we will call you.' No one called me in 3 weeks. I went to Toyota of tri cities and ask the lady named selena torres if the part for my car has arrived? she went to the part department and said that I never ordered any part from them. I asked if she can order the part for me. She said yes and that it will take 2 weeks to 3 weeks. She said that as soon as we receive it, we well call you. She asked for my phone number so I am sure that all of my contact info is in their system. I called them on July 2, 2016 and anthony stated, 'we don't have any part for you.' I asked when it will be available and he said that it will take 4 to 8 weeks. I am feeling that this dealer won't fix this recall issue.

I am concerned that Toyota has initiated a recall for my passenger air bag, told me that it is unsafe to drive or carry passengers, yet states that the repair may take 3 months. No remedy (I.e., rental car or other alternative) has yet been offered to address the safety issue during the 3 months.

Takata recall: I received a "remedy notice" from Toyota instructing me that the replacement airbag part was currently available, after having previously received an "interim letter" instructing that I would be notified when the replacement part became available. However, after contacting a local Toyota dealership, I was informed that the part would not be available for at least eight weeks. This constitutes an utter failure to remedy the defect within a reasonable time. Moreover, it is unacceptable to have been notified that the part is available when, in fact, it is not available for at least eight more weeks.
