My vehicle has been recalled due to the passenger front air bag since June 10, 2014, and a remedy is still not available. I have spoken with Toyota twice over the past 3 weeks and they are unable to give me any timeline on when a remedy may be available. This is unacceptable to leave a customer without a safety remedy for nearly one year. It is even more egregious that they are unable to provide a timeline of any sort on when a remedy will be available.

I have not yet had an incident. Based on Toyota recommendation, I do not allow anyone (including dogs, or heavy objects) to ride in the passenger front seat (or the back seat). My vehicle is still potentially dangerous for me, the driver. I would apply for an on/off switch for the airbags, but, it is not available for my car. I want that airbag de-activated. I need to get to work, and, I can not afford to replace this unsafe vehicle. I have already been waiting almost 1 year for a fix to the exploding airbag. I am also waiting for the fix to the bad electronic unit that could fire the airbag. How do I get your permission to make my car safe for me to drive by de-activating the passenger side airbag? I am already considering removing the passenger front seat, mounting it on the roof, and parking it in front of the local dealership with deathtrap painted all over it.

I have been sent two letters from Toyota stating that I have a defective airbag and not to let anyone sit in the front passenger's seat. I have been waiting months for this to be corrected. When I call the Toyota dealerships they tell me that they have yet to receive the replacement parts. This is a ticking bomb ready to explode and Toyota is not resolving the issue in a timely manner. I hope you can help pressure them to speed up production on these replacement airbags before a serious injury occurs. Many thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide me in the issue.
