Takata recall. It has been many months since we were notified of the recall with no repair. How much longer does my wife have to sit in the back seat rather than the front passenger seat? I cannot take all of my grandchildren in my car without us using the front passenger seat. Please speed up the repair.

Takata recall the recall notice was issued in may of 2016. Seven months later, I am unable to use my vehicle for my business, unable to use the car for family outings, and unable to use the car for anything else but personal commuting. More importantly, the lack of a timely remedy has rendered the vehicle unsellable. This is absolutely unacceptable. We have received no help from the local dealer and Lexus has not offered to provide a loaner vehicle with insurance on the vehicle.

"takata recall" Lexus has issued the recall notice on May 2016. Six months after, no remedy is yet announced by Lexus to fix the problem. I'm really afraid that something could happen anytime when I have someone sitting in the passenger seat while driving the car. Please have Lexus fix this issue asap. Our lives are in danger. Not allowing anybody to sit in the passenger seat is not a practical solution for such a long period of waiting time. Thank you.

Takata recall - I am being told that it will be the first qtr of 2017 before they expect to have replacement parts. That is almost a year since the notice. We cannot use this car with more than the driver on board. This is an unacceptable delay in getting parts. Honda had it done in a month. We would prefer not to be given a rental car.

Recall issue: Local dealer in ca has not responded in a timely manner saying no air bags are available; has taken no interest with a priority list or any other action, despite my financial need to sell. Falsely assured me front seat could be used by a passenger, but this cannot be confirmed online and would not provide written statement when called to confirm. I do no understand how other people with other brands, e.g. Acura, (even newer with no pre-collision feature) have contacted dealer who ordered and replaced the takata air bag. How can this be expedited"?" thank you

Takata recall: I took my car to Lexus 5 months ago and they said they would have a fix shortly. Now someone was killed by an airbag not far from where we live. It seems to me that even only one death is sufficient to demand a recall, and if they can't then they should disable the system until they can.
