"TAKATA RECALL" I RECEIVED THE NOTICE FROM TOYOTA TO HAVE THE AIR BAG MODULE REPLACED AT TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP A COUPLE TIMES BUT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART. AT LAST I WAS GIVEN THE APPOINTMENT ON APRIL 30, 2016 AT TOYOTA TOWN IN STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA. HOWEVER, WHEN I GOT THERE ON TIME THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WILL CALL ME WITHIN A WEEK FOR THE NEXT APPOINTMENT. IT HAS BEEN MORE THAN 2 WEEKS AND I HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP YET. SHOULD I KEEP WAITING UNTIL SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS?

TAKATA RECALL. TOYOTA SENT ME NOTICE ON AUGUST 20, 2015 OF SAFETY DEFECT WITH AIR BAGS. I JUST RECEIVED A LETTER TODAY ON 5-14-2016 THAT THEY WOULD REMEDY THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED TO NOT CARRY PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE IN THE INTERIM, WHICH ABOUT 9 MONTHS. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND HAS CAUSED HARDSHIP AND WILL RESULT IN AN ECONOMIC LOSS DUE TO NEGLIGENCE WHEN I CAN'T SELL MY CAR BECAUSE OF ITS SAFETY RECORD. 9 MONTHS TO FIX A POTENTIALLY LETHAL DEFECT WITH A CAR IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. I ALSO WANT ASSURANCE FROM TOYOTA THAT THE PROBLEM SOLELY EXISTS WITH PASSENGER AIRBAGS ON NOT DRIVER AIRBAGS.

TOYOTA ISSUED A RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE FOR THE AIR BAG INFLATOR ON JUNE 16, 2015, AND RECOMMENDED THAT I NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE WITH AN OCCUPANT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I HAVE SINCE HAD TO WAIT NEARLY AN ENTIRE YEAR BEFORE THE PARTS FOR THE RECALL WERE AVAILABLE IN MY AREA; I WAS ONLY NOTIFIED IN MAY OF 2016 THAT THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE IN MY AREA. IN OTHER WORDS, I WAS SUPPOSED TO AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER IN MY FRONT SEAT FOR ALMOST A WHOLE YEAR. THIS BY FAR EXCEEDS A REASONABLE TIMEFRAME FOR REPAIR, AND I HOPE THAT THERE WILL BE REPERCUSSIONS FOR THIS KIND OF FAILURE.

TAKATA RECALL - LAST SUMMER, WE RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM TOYOTA REGARDING THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG FOR OUR 2006 COROLLA. WE MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT A LOCAL DEALER (BOCH TOYOTA SOUTH IN NORTH ATTLEBORO, MA) AND BROUGHT THE CAR IN ON AUGUST 13, 2015. THEY CONFIRMED THAT THE CAR WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND NEEDED THE AIRBAG REPLACED, BUT TOLD US THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER. IT IS NOW OVER 8 MONTHS LATER. WE KEEP GETTING PHONE CALLS AND MAILINGS FROM TOYOTA TELLING US HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO HAVE THIS SAFETY RECALL WORK COMPLETED, YET THE DEALERSHIP STILL DOES NOT HAVE THE PART. TODAY BOTH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THE TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE AT THE PHONE NUMBER LISTED ON THE MOST RECENT SAFETY RECALL MAILING CONFIRMED THAT THE PART WAS STILL ON BACK ORDER. WE ASKED THE TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE WHY THEY CONTINUED TO LEAVE PHONE MESSAGES AND SEND US MAILINGS REGARDING HAVING THE WORK DONE IF THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND THEY SAID IT WAS A LEGAL OBLIGATION. I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I BELIEVE THE DEALER OR TOYOTA IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE SAFETY RECALL NOTICE STATES "UNTIL THE REMEDY IS PERFORMED, THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT SHOULD NOT BE OCCUPIED." 8 MONTHS AND COUNTING WITH NO ESTIMATE FOR WHEN THE PART MAY BE AVAILABLE IS UNACCEPTABLE.

I WAS NOTIFIED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT A RECALL FOR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS WAS CURRENTLY IN PLACE. WHEN I TRIED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT, THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD BE A 4-6 MONTH WAIT! THAT'S A LONG TIME TO BE DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE OR ARE THEY DISCRIMINATING AGAINST AN OLDER MODEL TOYOTA? ANYTHING I CAN DO TO SPEED THIS UP?
QUITE SOME TIME AGO, I RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THAT TOYOTA WOULD TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM, SINCE IT WAS SERIOUS. I HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED SINCE FOR AN UPDATE OR HAVE I BEEN GIVEN A DATE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL: THE DEALERSHIP AND OTHERS I CONTACTED HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO TELL ME WHEN THEY WILL HAVE THE PARTS TO COMPLETE THE REPAIR OF THE RECALL. SO WHILE IT IS GREAT THAT NHTSA HAS HELPED TO GET TO THE STAGE OF A RECALL, IF THE REPAIRS CANNOT BE COMPLETED, IT IS NOT A GOOD THING. CAN YOU HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM? (IN OTHER WORDS, HELP ME FIND A PLACE TO GET THE REPAIR OR TELL ME WHO TO CONTACT AT TOYOTA?) I AM UPSET ABOUT THIS.
TAKATA RECALL. RECEIVED SAFETY RECALL NOTIFICATION FROM TOYOTA. LOCAL DEALER ESTIMATED 4 TO 10 WEEKS WAIT TIME FOR REMEDIATION. NOTICE CLEARLY SAYS THAT '' UNTIL REMEDY IS PERFORMED, WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE WITH AN OCCUPANT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT". SO I CAN'T OPERATE WITH PASSENGER. ITS REALLY A BIG ISSUE FOR ME AS MY WIFE NEEDS TO COME TO OFFICE IN THE SAME CAR WITH ME .IT'S CAUSING GREAT TROUBLE FOR OUR WORK AND ALSO FOR WEEK END ROUTINES/TRIPS. I HAVE REQUESTED DEALER SEVERAL TIMES MENTIONING ABOVE IMPACT HOWEVER THERE IS NO POSITIVE RESPONSE. RATHER THEY ARE CLAIMING IT AN ISSUE WHERE THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE. MY CURRENT SITUATION IS THAT I AM TAKING PAID TAXI SERVICES FOR DROP AND PICK UP FROM OFFICES . IT'S COSTING AROUND $100 DOLLARS DAILY SINCE 3/30/2016.ANY IMMEDIATE RESOLUTION/REMEDY WILL HELP ME

HOWEVER, ON SATURDAY, MARCH 26TH, ROHRICH LEFT A VOICE MAIL MESSAGE ON MY CELL PHONE TO SAY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS 'SHORT STAFFED' AND TO CALL BACK TO RESCHEDULE. I CALLED ON MARCH 28TH AND MADE THE APPOINTMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING DAY, TUESDAY, MARCH 29TH AT 1:00 P.M. I DROPPED THE CAR OFF AT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, AND MY HUSBAND PICKED ME UP SO THAT WE COULD GO OUT FOR LUNCH. NOT 10 MINUTES LATER, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CALLED ME ON MY CELL PHONE TO TELL ME THEY 'DIDN'T HAVE THE PART' AND I COULD EITHER LEAVE THE CAR UNTIL TOMORROW, WHICH WOULD BE TODAY, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 30TH OR PICK UP THE CAR AND RESCHEDULE AND, IF/WHEN I CALL TO RESCHEDULE, ASK TO MAKE SURE THAT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS THE PART.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
