About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Sometime around August 2014, I received a safety recall notice from Toyota. It mentioned a new safety recall #E1S which supersedes the prior notice #A9E. This involves the spare tire carrier cable which may corrode due to road salt in cold climate areas, which I understand includes Maryland where I live. I have called Toyota dealers near me and they keep saying that Toyota has not provided them with the part to repair this. I tried again today, March 13, 2015, but the answer is the same. Therefore, I am registering my complaint today and would like to know how soon this safety defect might be taken care of.
