Tundra 4WD 8-cyl

We received a notification regarding a safety recall for our Toyota Tundra 2006. It says that Toyota doesn't currently have the parts to repair the passenger side airbag which may be under pressure and could deploy at anytime. We were advised not to utilize the passenger side of our vehicle until we are contacted for a repair. This advise has not been possible since we have another car in the shop and we have needed to commute together. We do not feel that we should have to rent a car. It's unreasonable that Toyota would expect their loyal customers to "wait" for a repair that is their responsibility and in the meantime not use their vehicle. It has been over three weeks since we received the recall notification and we have not heard from Toyota that our repair can be scheduled. We believe that Toyota has failed to remedy the defect within a reasonable time and we want this recall to be remedied immediately for the safety of our family. Thank you

Received an undated letter of recall for a defective airbag. This was an interim notice with a remedy but no idea when it can be fixed. I called Toyota customer experience and they gave me a case # 1508251905.they told me to call the dealer close to my area to see when parts will be available. No one knows when parts are going to be in my area.I am paying for a vehicle that I can't put anyone in the passenger seat due to faulty air bag that may injure or kill if seated in the seat. Toyota needs to at least give us an idea when this problem can be fixed.

I received a safety recall notice for airbags from Toyota who "strongly recommends that you have this safety recall remedy performed immediately. If you do not follow the instructions in this letter, you should not drive your vehicle." When calling for an appointment on July 28, 2015 at Toyota of fort worth, 9001 camp bowie w blvd, fort worth, tx I was told that they wouldn't have replacement parts until September 23, 2015. I'm unable to park the vehicle for 2 months, it is my only transportation. I believe that "Toyota has failed or is unable to remedy the defect within a reasonable time", what is my recourse?
