Takata recall. I received the recall notice and immediately contacted the dealership. They said it would be months before they could repair it. It has been months and still we have not been notified on when they will repair it. They provided a rental car for about four months but still need my car.

Takata recall: The takata airbags in my vehicle are dangerous and lethal. I've been asking Toyota for replacements for more than a year, and my dealer keeps putting me off. Other manufacturers have offered replacements as far back as a year and a half ago. Toyota won't respond. I've also requested a loaner vehicle until Toyota is prepared to install the airbag replacements. They claim they put me on a waiting list for a loaner 6 months ago, and every time I check, they tell me I'm still on the waiting list. In the meantime I'm driving around a dangerous vehicle.

Takata recall- a takata airbag inflator safety recall for my vehicle has been issued and the remedy is currently being prepared. After contacting my local dealership [Toyota of tampa bay] I was informed that the best estimate for when information about the remedy for my vehicle will be available is December 2017. The recall states that the airbag inflators are faulty and capable of rupturing and causing metal fragments to pass through the airbag cushion material and strike occupants. The shrapnel could cause serious injury or death. My vehicle has been in Florida where I reside since I purchased the car and there has been exposure to moisture in the environment and fluctuating high temperatures. I drive this vehicle regularly to Transport my family and I fear that in the event of an accident my family and I will not be a) protected from the airbags installed and B) [we] are at risk for being injured by the airbags.
