2008 Scion XB complaints

TAKATA RECALL IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR AND I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY SORT OF UPDATE ON THE RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SCION XB. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 16V340000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE LOCAL DEALER (AUTONATION TOYOTA LOCATED AT 1 CARDINAL PARK DR SE, LEESBURG, VA 20175; (571) 357-3965) CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY UNTIL DECEMBER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AT 888-270-9371 AND STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

WE ARE VICTIMS OF THE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE TOYOTA WAS HAVING WITH CERTAIN MODELS. WE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM UNTIL WE WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP COMPLAINING ABOUT LOW OIL AFTER WE HAD TO PUT OIL IN THE CAR AFTER WE HAD AN OIL CHANGE DONE. WE THEN FIGURED OUT THIS ISSUE HAD BEEN OUTSTANDING FOR YEARS BUT WE WERE NEVER NOTIFIED ABOUT THE ISSUE. WE CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY EXPLAIN THE WARRANTY EXPIRED LAST MONTH AND THEY WOULD NOT HELP US OUT AT ALL. HOW COULD THEY ABANDON A CUSTOMER WHEN A KNOWN ISSUE HAS OCCURRED. WE WERE TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT SEVERAL CARS HAD COME IN WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND THAT IT WAS COMMON. HOW COULD TOYOTA GET AWAY WITH A FAULTY PRODUCT AND NOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. THEY HAVE LOST MY SUPPORT SINCE THEY WILL NOT SUPPORT ME. WE NOW HAVE A CAR THAT IS NOT WORTH ANYTHING BECAUSE OF THE COST OF REPAIRS. THIS FINANCIALLY SETS US BACK AND WILL NOW PUT MY FAMILY INTO A FINANCIAL BIND SINCE WE ARE FORCED INTO LOOKING FOR ANOTHER RELIABLE CAR TO COMMUTE TO WORK IN. THANKS FOR NOTHING TOYOTA.

"TAKATA RECALL". I RECEIVED THE TOYOTA RECALL NOTICE AND WARNING ABOUT THE TAKATA RECALL ON 2/13/17. I HAVE CALLED TOYOTA AND THE DEALER THEY ARE UNABLE TO GIVE ME A REASONABLE TIME WHEN MY CAR WILL BE REPAIRED. I AM TOLD THAT THEY ARE FOCUSING ON CARS IN THE SOUTH WHERE THE HUMIDITY IMPACTS ARE GREATER. I HAVE HAD MY CAR IN THE HUMID SOUTH. I AM VERY NERVOUS DRIVING THE CAR. CAN YOU HELP ME GET IT FIXED?

TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL OTHER VEHICLES ARE GETTING FIXED BUT MINE STILL DOES NOT HAVE A RESOLUTION.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE IN MAY 2016 FOR MY VEHICLE. WE HAVE STOPPED USING THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS GREATLY IMPACTING OUR LIVES. WE HAVE BEEN WAITING 10 MONTHS, AND THERE ARE STILL NO PARTS AVAILABLE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. IN FEBRUARY 2017, WE GOT A RECALL NOTICE, FOR THE SAME ISSUE, ON OUR SECOND CAR, 2012 TOYOTA COROLA. WE CANNOT SAFELY TRANSPORT OUR FAMILY IN EITHER CAR NOW. WE NEED TAKATA TO EXPEDITE THE REPAIRS AND PROVIDE US WITH FREE TRANSPORTATION IN A VEHICLE THAT DOES NOT PUT OUR LIVES AT RISK.

TAKATA RECALL-RECEIVED NOTICE OF AIRBAG RECALL IN JUNE 2016. IT IS NOW FEBRUARY 2017 AND ON 2/24/2017 I CALLED THE HOTLINE TO INQUIRE WHEN THE PROBLEM WOULD BE SOLVED. THE REMEDY THAT THE NOTICE GAVE US WAS NOT TO HAVE ANYONE SIT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAS BECOME A PROBLEM FOR US AS THIS IS NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE. I WAS INFORMED THAT NO REMEDY HAS BEEN FOUND YET. SINCE JUNE 2016 I HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS MAILINGS FROM TOYOTA OFFERING TO BUY BACK MY CAR AT A LOW PRICE. IT SEEMS LIKE TOYOTA WANTS US TO EITHER TURN IN OUR CAR FOR A NEW VEHICLE OR WAIT UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS TOO OLD TO FIX. WHEN WILL THIS PROBLEM BE RESOLVED. A TEMPORARY FIX SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN PLACE WHEN THE ORIGINAL NOTICES WERE SENT BUT THAT IS NOT THE CASE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD GIVE US A LOANER. I AM SURE THAT THIS WOULD NOT BE THE CASE ESPECIALLY WHEN NO REPAIR IS EVEN AVAILABLE. CAN YOU PLEASE ADVISE WHEN THE REMEDY WILL BECOME AVAILABLE??

THEY SAID NO PARTS AVAILABLE NOW OR IN THE NEAR FUTURE. WOULD NOT SUPPLY LOANER CAR. WAS TOLD TO NOT PUT PASSENGERS IN FRONT SEAT IF I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT PROBABLY NO BIG DEAL DUE TO LOW HUMIDITY IN OUR AREA.

I WAS BACKING UP INTO THE GARAGE WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST ALL THE USE OF THE POWER STEERING

TAKATA RECALL. WE HAVE 3 COMPANY SCIONS THAT HAVE HAD A RECALL FOR OVER SIX MONTHS. TOYOTA STILL HASN'T CALLED US TO HAVE THE AIR BAGS REPLACED. WHEN WE CALL, THEY SAY THEIR OUT OF STOCK. I WOULD LIKE THEM TO BUY BACK THESE VEHICLES, AS IT IS EFFECTING OUR COMPANY BUSINESS! THE VIN'S ARE [XXX], [XXX], [XXX]. I JUST RECEIVED 2 MORE SCION RECALLS FOR A TOTAL OF 5 VEHICLE IN OUR FLEET WHERE WE CAN'T TAKE A CLIENT OR PASSENGER OUT. I HAVE 7 MORE SCIONS THAT I'M SURE WILL BE ON THE RECALL LIST, WHICH THEY ARE SLOW TO SEND OUT AND COULD COST LIVES!!
