TAKATA RECALL - TOYOTA IS REFUSING TO PROVIDE ME A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE UNTIL THEY CAN FIX THE AIRBAG. THEY CLAIM THEY ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO FIX THE VEHICLE UNTIL AT LEAST 6 YEARS HAVE PASSED. BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN NOVEMBER 2011, THEY WILL NOT GIVE ME A REPLACEMENT UNTIL NOVEMBER 2017. THIS DELAY MAKES NO SENSE BECAUSE THE AIRBAG DEGRADES WITH HEAT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SITTING IN A DEALERSHIP PARKING LOT UNDER THE HOT SUN OF TEXAS SINCE THE BEGINNING OF 2011 AND THE DEGRADATION DOES NOT START AT THE SALE DATE.

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM TOYOTA IN JULY ADVISING ME OF THE AIRBAG RECALL. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. I THEN SENT AN EMAIL TO TOYOTA CORPORATE. INCIDENT # 160908-000084. I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THEM AND DURING THE CALL, I WAS ADVISED NOT TO LET ANYONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT. THEY WERE ALSO UNABLE TO GIVE ME ANY IDEA WHEN THE REPLACEMENT MIGHT TAKE PLACE. DOCUMENTATION ON THEIR WEBSITE INDICATED A POSSIBLE 2019 SOLUTION. IT IS UNREASONABLE AND UNACCEPTABLE TO BE ADVISED NOT TO CARRY PASSENGERS IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT THAT COULD CAUSE METAL TO DISCHARGE AND MAIM OR KILL THEM. I NEED MY CAR AND I SOMETIMES TRANSPORT PASSENGERS. TOYOTA SHOULD REPLACE THE FAULTY AIRBAG WITH ONE THAT WON'T POSSIBLY KILL MY PASSENGER OR ME. WHILE THEY ARE REPLACING THE AIRBAG, THEY SHOULD ALSO PROVIDE ME A LOANER AT NO CHARGE TO ME UNTIL MY CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE.
TAKATA RECALL - WE HAVE NOT HAD A SPECIFIC INCIDENT WITH OUR CAR, BUT IT IS OUR PRIMARY VEHICLE AND WE NEED IT TO BE SAFE FOR LONG DISTANCE TRAVEL. IT HAS BEEN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME SINCE WE RECEIVED OUR NOTICE (06/09/16) AND WE WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY FOR THE SAFETY OF OURSELVES AND OUR FAMILY.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED THE LETTER FROM TOYOTA IN JULY, ADVISING ME OF THE RECALL. I CALLED MY DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY HAD NOT RECEIVED THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG FROM TOYOTA SO THEY COULD DO NOTHING. IT IS UNREASONABLE AND UNACCEPTABLE TO BE ADVISED THAT I SHOULD NOT HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE CAR IN CASE THE AIRBAG SPEWS OUT METAL. I NEED MY CAR AND I SOMETIMES MUST TRANSPORT PASSENGERS. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE TO BE TOLD TO EITHER NOT DRIVE MY CAR AND TO NOT HAVE ANY PASSENGERS. TOYOTA SHOULD REPLACE THE FAULTY AIRBAG WITH ONE THAT WORKS SAFELY. MEANWHILE, AND WHILE THEY DO REPLACE THE AIRBAG, THEY SHOULD LOAN ME A CAR AT NO CHANGE UNTIL MY CAR IS SAFE TO BE IN, AND ALSO LOAN ME A CAR FREE OF CHANGE WHILE THEY REPLACE THE AIRBAG

"TAKATA RECALL". FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATORS.I RECEIVED THE NOTICE REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND HAVE YET TO RECEIVE A NOTICE TO. TAKE MY CAR IN TO HAVE THIS AIRBAG REPLACED. I DID NOT THINK IT IS FAIR THAT I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL LONG- TERM EXPOSURE TO ENVIRONMENTAL MOISTURE & FLUCTUATING HIGH TEMPERATURES HAPPEN BEFORE THE PROPELLANT IN THE AIRBAGS DEGRADES CAUSING AN INJURY TO MY PASSENGER/S I WOULD LIKE FOR TOYOTA TO REPLACE THIS AIRBAG. I DID NOT PURCHASE THIS CAR TO PUT MY PASSENGER/S SAFETY AT RISK & I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO TELL MY PASSENGER/S THAT THEY HAVE TO SIT IN THE BACK. I AM NOT A TAXI OR CHAUFFEUR.
TAKATA RECALL: 8/27/2016 TOYOTA SAYS BOTH IN PRINT ON THE SAFERCAR.GOV SITE AND IN A CALL I RECENTLY MADE TO MANHATTAN BEACH TOYOTA THAT THERE IS CURRENTLY NO REMEDY FOR MY POTENTIALLY DEADLY TAKATA AIRBAGS AND THAT THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THERE WILL BE A REMEDY AVAILABLE. THIS RESPONSE IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE TO ME AND EXTREMELY IRRESPONSIBLE. I WANT TO KNOW IN DETAIL WHAT STEPS TOYOTA IS TAKING TO DEVELOP A SOLUTION TO REPLACING MY DANGEROUS AIRBAG. I WANT TO KNOW THE TIMELINE FOR REPLACING MY AIRBAG, OR AT LEAST AN ESTIMATE OF HOW LONG I WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR A NEW AIRBAG. I HAVE WORKED MANY YEARS IN A PROFESSIONAL RETAIL CORPORATE SETTING, AND I AM ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN THAT THE ANSWERS TO THESE TWO QUESTIONS ARE BEING DISCUSSED AND PLANNED AT TOYOTA. IN ANY RETAIL BUSINESS, CUSTOMERS COME FIRST, AND I DESERVE TO HAVE THE BEST ANSWERS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. HEARING NOTHING IS BREAKING MY TRUST IN TOYOTA. WE HAVE PURCHASED 4 TOYOTAS OVER THE PAST TWENTY YEARS, AND WANT TO REMAIN LOYAL CUSTOMERS.BUT WE ARE BECOMING INCREASINGLY FRUSTRATED WITH TOYOTA'S LACK OF RESPONSE.

I NEED SOMETHING I CAN PUT MY FAMILY IN. SURELY SINCE E I BOUGHT THE VEHICALS FROM THEM WITH LARGE DOWN PAYMENT I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO GET A LO ER SINCE I DRIVE ON INTERSTATE 10 (ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS HIGH WAYS) EVERY DAY! 35 MILES ONE WAY. MY HOUSEHOLD CANNOT FUNCTION LIKE THIS. PLEASE HELP.

TAKATA INFLATORS: AFTER REACHING OUT TO TOYOTA'S WEBSITE AND SPEAKING WITH ALEXANDRIA IN REGARDS TO HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE FOR MY PASSENGER AIRBAG TO BE REPLACED AND WHICH PHASE/ZONE MY CAR IS IN, I EXPLAINED THAT NOT USING MY FRONT SEAT IN A SMALLER VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT MY FAMILY OF 5 IN UNACCEPTABLE AND WILL NOT WORK FOR OUR NEEDS. I THEN INQUIRED ABOUT A LOANER VEHICLE AND WAS INSTRUCTED TO CALL MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP, WHICH I DID. AT LEITH TOYOTA IN RALEIGH, NC I SPOKE WITH JENNIFER (SHE ALSO ASKED HER MANAGER OR ANOTHER EMPLOYEE) AND I WAS TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT PROVIDE LOANER VEHICLES DURING THIS RECALL FOR AIRBAGS. I AM EXTREMELY UPSET AND FRUSTRATED AT THE FACT THAT I NOW CAN'T TRANSPORT MY FAMILY TO WHERE WE NEED TO GO IN A DAY. THIS DISRUPTS OUR DAILY LIFE WITH WORK, SCHOOL, SPORTS AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN. I BOUGHT FROM TOYOTA BECAUSE I BELIEVED THAT THE QUALITY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS ON POINT. YES THERE CAN BE RECALLS, I UNDERSTAND THIS, BUT PROVIDE A REMEDY!!! AT THIS POINT, I FEEL THAT I AM RECEIVING THE EXACT OPPOSITE AND HAVE A DISABLED VEHICLE THAT WILL NOW SIT IN MY YARD UNTIL THIS RECALL (OF POSSIBLY 3 YEARS!!!) IS CORRECTED. UNACCEPTABLE. YOU RECEIVE PAYMENTS FROM THIS FAMILY ON A VEHICLE I AM UNABLE TO USE AS NEEDED AND IS REQUIRED OF THIS FAMILY.

THE DRIVER DOOR LOCK IS NOT RESPONDING TO MY KEY PAD (STATIONARY). MY RADIO AUTOMATICALLY TURNED ITSELF OFF (WHIL DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE). WHEN I RESEARCHED THE LOCK, I WAS TOLD MY CAR'S COMPUTER MAY NEED TO BE "REBOOTED". WHY DO I NEED TO "REBOOT" A COMPUTER AFTER USE FOR 4YEARS? WHY IS THE COMPUTER FAULTY. THIS IS NOT A LUXURY VEHICLE WITH SEVERAL HUNDRED COMPUTING OPTIONS. I DO NOT USE THE VEHICLE IN A INAPPROPRIATE MANNER. IF THE RADIO TURNED ITSELF OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING, I AM CONCERNED FOR A DIFFERENT PART OF THE COMPUTER MALFUNCTIONING THAT COULD COST MY LIFE.

ON JANUARY 7, 2016 WE BROUGHT OUR CAR TO THE WESTON, FLORIDA TOYOTA DEALERSHIP BECAUSE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. THE SERVICE WRITER SAID THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE "CANISTER" AND THAT IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. THEY GAVE US A LONER-CAR AND SAID THE PROBLEM WOULD BE FIXED IN TWO DAYS. LATER THAT WEEK, THE SERVICE WRITER TOLD US THE COMPUTER HAD TO BE REPLACED AND IT WOULD BE "A WHILE" UNTIL THE PART ARRIVED. WE STILL HAVE THE "LOANER" AND THE CAR HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP SINCE JANUARY 7TH. TODAY IS APRIL 27TH. SO FAR 110 DAYS. THE LOANER CAR IS VERY NICE (2015 TOYOTA COROLLA). MY WIFE LOVES THE BACK-UP CAMERA, BUT HER CAR STILL SITS AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE CAR HAS 44,000 MILES AND HAS BEEN REPAIRED ONLY ONCE BEFORE. INTERESTINGLY, THE PREVIOUS PROBLEM WITH THE CAR HAD TO DO WITH THE COMPUTER. THE CAR WOULD LOSE OVER 100 RPM AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THEN QUICKLY ACCELERATE BACK UP TO THE PRECEDING RPM. I THINK THE MECHANIC SAID THAT HE FLASHED THE COMPUTER OR SOMETHING ELSE THAT MADE ME THINK (IN LAYMAN'S LANGUAGE) THAT HE "REBOOTED" THE CAR'S COMPUTER. THIS WEEK THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THAT THEY EXPECT THE NEW COMPUTER TO ARRIVE BY MAY 15TH. I WROTE A LETTER TO SOUTHEAST TOYOTA AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVE CALLED TO LET ME KNOW THAT WE WERE NOT ALONE BUT THERE ARE OVER 50 CARS IN THEIR SYSTEM THAT NEED NEW COMPUTERS. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE MOST POPULAR CAR IN THE WORLD SHOULD HAVE AN ADEQUATE SUPPLY OR SUPPLIERS TO REPLACE THE ONES THAT GO BAD...TO GET A COMPUTER FROM MANUFACTURI
MY HUSBAND WAS HIT HEAD ON BY A CAR SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL ON THE HIGHWAY. HE WAS TRAVELING 50 TO 60 MPH WHEN THE CARS IN FRONT OF HIM SWERVED TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF THE ONCOMING VEHICLE LEAVING HIM NO TIME TO REACT. HE HAD JUST STARTED BREAKING UPON IMPACT WHICH WAS FORCEFUL ENOUGH TO PUSH HIS CAR OFF THE HIGHWAY INTO THE GUARD RAIL. YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURES THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE CAR WAS DAMAGED, THE BUMPER COMPLETELY TORN OFF THE CAR, AND THE ENGINE FORCED BACK FROM THE FRAME OF THE CAR. NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. EVEN THOUGH HE WAS WEARING HIS SEAT BELT, MY HUSBAND HIT HIS HEAD ON THE TOP OF THE CAR NEAR THE WINDSHIELD AND SUSTAINED SIGNIFICANT WHIPLASH FROM THE IMPACT. WE CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THE AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED FROM AN IMPACT LIKE THIS. WE CHECKED AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS REGARDING AIRBAGS FOR THIS CAR. SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT. THEY SHOULD HAVE GONE OFF AND PROTECTED MY HUSBAND DURING THIS COLLISION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WITHOUT WARNING. THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO CONTINUED TURNING AFTER THE TURN WAS COMPLETE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS WORKING UP TO SPECIFICATIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW AND IT HAS BEEN THIS WAY SINCE I PURCHASED IT NEW BUT IT SEEMS HAS BECOME WORSE. I ENCOUNTER DIFFICULTY STEERING AT HIGH SPEEDS. STEERING IS EXTREME SENSITIVE WITH THE SLIGHTEST MOVEMENT CAUSES GREAT CHANGE IN THE DIRECTION OF THE VEHICLE. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE CAR OVERREACTS TO SMALL STEERING INPUTS OR REQUIRED TOO MUCH EFFORT TO KEEP IN A LANE ON THE HIGHWAY. I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE. I FIND THE CAR WANDERING AND CONSTANT CORRECTIONS ON THE HIGHWAY OR AT HIGHER SPEEDS (25+). MY DAUGHTER JUST STARTED DRIVING (SHE IS 16) AND IT IS WAY TOO SENSITIVE FOR HER. SHE FEELS THE SAME WAY AND MY WIFE THAT HAS DROVE THE CAR TOO. I KNOW THAT THERE IS A TSB-0140-10 ON NHTSA #10034944 ON STEERING FOR THE 2009-2010 BUT I FEEL MY CAR HAS THE SAME ISSUES. MAYBE MY CAR HAS THE PARTS FROM EARLIER MODELS (2009-2010). I HAVE CHECKED MY TIRES AIR PRESSURE AND ALSO TIRE WEAR. ALL IS NORMAL. PLEASE HELP. I WANT MY DAUGHTER TO HAVE THIS COROLLA BUT I FEEL AT IT'S CURRENT DETECTIVE STEERING IT IS NOT SAFE.
NOT SURE WHY I WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT ALL OF THESE RECALLS. I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE SINCE DEC. 2012
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.
