I RECEIVED A NOTICE BACK IN JULY INFORMING ME ABOUT THE RECALL IN THE AIR BAG OF MY CAR. I CALLED AROUND AUGUST, THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. I CALLED AGAIN TODAY TO PRECISION TOYOTA IN TUCSON AND THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. THIS IS COMPLETELY ABSURD. I CANNOT HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT UNTIL THE ISSUE FIXED; IT'S BEEN 5 MONTHS. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DANGEROUS AND UNSAFE. TOYOTA NEEDS TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE ASAP OR PROVIDE SOME SORT OF COMPENSATION. THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE A RENTAL CAR SINCE IT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. I DON'T HAVE TIME TO BE CALLING TOYOTA ALL THE TIME REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PARTS. ACTION NEEDS TO BE TAKEN AT THIS POINT.

TAKATA RECALL. TOYOTA SENT ME A RECALL NOTICE MONTHS AGO, WITH THE FOLLOWING TEXT, "...WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE WITH AN OCCUPANT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT." IT ALSO SAYS (IN RED TYPE), "WE ARE CURRENTLY PREPARING PARTS FOR YOUR LOCATION; WE WILL SEND YOU ANOTHER NOTIFICATION ONCE SUFFICIENT PARTS HAVE BEEN PRODUCED AND THE REMEDY CAN BE PERFORMED." THAT RECOMMENDATION IS IMPOSSIBLE TO COMPLY WITH, AND TOYOTA HAS OFFERED NO OTHER REMEDY. FROM WHAT I READ IN THE NEWSPAPERS, THESE TAKATA AIR BAGS ARE LIKE A LOADED GUN POINTED AT THE CAR OCCUPANTS. ESSENTIALLY, TOYOTA HAS DONE NOTHING FOR ME, AND HAS ONLY ATTEMPTED TO GUARD ITS OWN ASS IN CASE MY AIRBAG EXPLODES AND INJURES SOMEONE. WHEN ONE USES ONE'S SEAT BELTS (WHICH IS ALWAYS IN THIS CAR) THERE IS NO NEED FOR AIR BAGS. TO HAVE AN AIR BAG THAT ACTUALLY THREATENS THE LIFE OF THE OCCUPANTS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. I WANT THIS AIRBAG REMOVED, BUT THE RECALL NOTIFICATION MAKES NO MENTION OF THAT AS A POSSIBILITY.
TAKATA RECALL..... I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA OF NEWBURGH SEVERAL TIMES SINCE SEPT OF THIS YEAR ABOUT REPLACING MY CARS AIRBAG THE RESPONSE IS THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AND I SHOULD NOT DRIVE THE CAR UNTIL AIRBAG IS REPLACED. MY HUSBAND HAS A LEXUS THE AIR BAG WAS REPLACED IN JULY ONE WEEK AFTER RECALL NOTICE???
TAKATA RECALL I'M REALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH TOYOTA THAT I HAVEN'T GOTTEN A NEW PASSENGER AIR BAG YET! I HAVE BEEN WAITING SINCE JUNE AND IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 6 MONTHS NOW THAT I'VE HAD TO DEPEND ON OTHER PEOPLE TO DRIVE US PLACES. I'D LIKE TO GET A NEW PASSENGER AIR BAG ASAP OTHERWISE I MAY NEVER BUY A TOYOTA AGAIN. UNTIL THIS RECALL I'VE BEEN HAPPY WITH MY TOYOTA, BUT THIS HAS CHANGED THINGS. I HOPE TO HEAR FROM TOYOTA SOON SO THAT MY PASSENGER AIR BAG CAN BE REPLACED.

I BELIEVE THAT TOYOTA HAS FAILED TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME. MY FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG HAS BEEN RECALLED SINCE SOMETIME THIS SUMMER. I ONLY HAVE 1 CAR AND 3 KIDS THAT I TAKE TO APPOINTMENTS, ETC. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IF SOMETHING IS IN RECALL, WHY PARTS ARE NOT READILY AVAILABLE. PLEASE CONTACT ME WITH AN UPDATE. THANK YOU. *TR

I HAD MY VEHICLE IN IDLE AND RETRACTED MY DRIVERS SIDE POWER WINDOWS DOWN TO PULL MY NEPHEW INTO MY LAP TO SAY GOODBYE TO HIM. AT THIS TIME ABOUT 5 MINUTES AFTER STARTING MY CAR THE WINDOW PANEL, AS WELL AS BELOW THE DOOR PANEL TOWARDS THE SPEAKER A HEAVY SMELL OF BURNING PLASTIC SPREAD AROUND THE CAR AND WHITE SMOKE STARTED BILLOWING OUT THROUGH THE SLIT THE WINDOW GLASS RETRACTS BACK INTO. AT THIS TIME I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND WAITED UNTIL THE TOXIC SMOKE HAD ESCAPED. THIS ISSUE WITH THE MASTER SWITCH HAS BEEN REPORTED BY TOYOTA FOR 2009 COROLLAS ONLY. THIS COULD HAVE POSED A SERIOUS HEALTH RISK HAD IT GONE UNNOTICED. AFTER DOING THE DIAGNOSTIC, IT WAS FOUND THAT IT WAS IN FACT A FAULTY SWITCH THAT PROBABLY "GOT WET". IF A CAR IS CATCHING ON FIRE AFTER A SIMPLE FLORIDA RAIN SHOWER, THAT IS NOT THE CONSUMER'S FAULT. FAULTY MANUFACTURING IS THE CASE HERE. WAITING ON TOYOTA CORPORATE RESPONSE OR WILL SEEK PROMPT LEGAL ACTION.

MY COMPLAINT IS THAT TOYOTA HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUE FOR MONTHS. THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE IS 79 YEARS OLD AND TAKES OTHERS TO THE DOCTOR ON A REGULAR BASIS. THE FACT THAT YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RISK IS HIGH AND ALL YOU DO IS ADVISE THE CUSTOMER THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON IT AND NOT TO SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT IS OUTRAGEOUS. I FEEL TOYOTA SHOULD STOP SELLING CARS AND FOCUS THEIR ATTENTION ON THIS ITEM. IF YOU REALLY WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE EITHER FIX THE ISSUE OR PROVIDE A LOANER THAT THE CONSUMER CAN USE THAT DOES NOT RISK THE LIVES OF THE PASSENGERS. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED KNOWING A PASSENGER COULD SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT. HOW CAN A COMPANY LIKE TOYOTA FEEL THIS IS A GOOD RESOLUTION TO AN ONGOING AND OUTSTANDING ISSUES. I'M HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED AND WILL MAKE SURE OTHERS KNOW HOW TOYOTA TREATS THEIR CUSTOMERS. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED CONSUMER!

WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE ARE VEHICLE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW. WE HAVE A DRIVING SCHOOL AND NEED TO HAVE INSTRUCTOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I HAVE CALLED TOYOTA TWICE JUST TO BE TOLD THEY ARE SORRY BUT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE IN OUR AREA RIGHT NOW. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE, AND IS COSTING OUR BUSINESS MONEY.

SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, I WAS NOTIFIED THAT MY CAR WAS AFFECTED BY THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL. ACCORDING TO THE RECALL INFORMATION ONLINE, MY CAR IS NOT REQUIRED TO BE FIXED UNTIL BETWEEN 2017 AND 2019. THE COROLLA I DRIVE IS MY MAIN SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION FOR MY CHILD AND HIS FRIENDS, YET IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT I NOT DRIVE WITH ANYONE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE TO ME. I HAVE THE CAR FULLY PAID OFF, IT IS IN DECENT CONDITION, YET I CANNOT USE IT IN THE MANNER FOR WHICH IT WAS PURCHASED. I THINK TOYOTA SHOULD GIVE ME FULL MARKET VALUE FOR WHAT THE CAR IS WORTH SO I CAN PURCHASE ANOTHER SAFER CAR. I WILL STILL LOSE IN THE END, AS I INTENDED TO DRIVE THIS CAR FOR A FEW MORE YEARS. BUT AT LEAST I CAN DRIVE MY CHILD AND HIS FRIENDS SAFELY.
I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON JUNE 16, 2015 DUE TO POOR FRONT SEAT PASSENGER AIRBAGS. IT IS NOW NOVEMBER AND I STILL HAVE NOT HEARD THAT THIS PART REPLACEMENT IS AVAILABLE. IT STATES IN MY RECALL NOTICE THAT I SHOULD NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE WITH A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT UNTIL THE PART IS AVAILABLE. THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO WAIT FOR THIS TO BE FIXED.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TOYOTA IN JUNE OF 2015 INFORMING ME THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR MODULE WAS BEING RECALLED AND UNTIL IT COULD BE FIXED, THEY RECOMMENDED NOT OPERATING THE VEHICLE WITH AN OCCUPANT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. APPROXIMATELY FIVE MONTHS HAVE PASSED AND THE PARTS TO FIX THE DEFECT ARE STILL UNAVAILABLE, WHICH I BELIEVE TO BE AN UNREASONABLY LONG TIME FRAME GIVEN THE SAFETY RISKS THIS DEFECT PRESENTS.
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.
