Takata recall - I received recall information back on 6/09/2016. How much longer will it take to get this fixed. It's been several months now and I'm not suppose to drive with any passengers in my car. This is taking way too long.

Takata recall - I was notified on 1/16/2017 that the passenger airbag in my Corolla had a recall with no current fix for the problem. This is unacceptable. The airbag is considered deadly in the description of the recall, and it has been almost a month since I have received this recall, and no action from Toyota. It is unreasonable to think that someone can go without using the passenger seat for over a month with a family and only one vehicle. At a minimum, Toyota should be providing rental cars free of charge for all those affected. It is also unreasonable to have to wait this long, when other car models have already had the takata airbags fixed. Toyota is a reputable brand for a car, however, given this situation they have put me in, I will rethink them in the future.

Takata recall - my car was recalled for airbag replacement last may (2016) and I was advised not to have a passenger in the front. I have been unable to find out when my car will be repaired. I have been told, multiple times that the parts are unavailable at this time. If the parts are not available, can I ask what is being installed in new models. I basically have a car that I can be the only occupant when the car is being driven.

Takata recall. I received a recall notice and took it to my local dealer who advised that they didn't have a"fix"yet. The recall notice suggested that the passenger seat not have a passenger without mentioning that particles could blow elsewhere through the car. I bought a four door sedan. Toyota should pay the difference in value and all cars like it should be removed from the road.

Takata recall : I received a safety recall from Toyota on May 2016 NHTSA recall no. 16V-340. Front passenger airbag inflator (zone a) the propellant in these inflators may degrade after prolonged exposure to high humidity and fluctuating high temperatures. Since I live in Florida I'm very concerned about the problem. Toyota should have fixed the problem by now, 10 months is way beyond a reasonable time limit.

Takata recall- I received notification of a takata airbag recall on my Toyota Corolla in July 2016. There has been no word from Toyota regarding when my airbag will be exchanged. I live in Texas which is considered a "red" zone with high temperatures cycling and humidity. I want the airbags in my car replaced as soon as possible and I am getting nowhere with the local dealership or the Toyota manufacturer.

Takata recall I've just been notified of this recall but there is not yet a remedy? the remedy is to replace the faulty air bag that could potentially kill someone in my vehicle. When calling Toyota they tell me the best course of action is to not drive the vehicle. The problem with that is without a car I can not work and provide for my family. I just don't understand how they say there's no a remedy and just stand bye without a car until we make a decision. I don't feel like driving the vehicle with potential for death or becoming unemployed and losing my way of life is a very fair question to pose to their customers.
